Start cheating from The King's Avatar

After being eliminated, there was no need for the Wuji boss to say anything more, the team members could read their next outcome from the atmosphere: disbandment.

Forming a team is no joke. After spending several years in the challenge competition, if the team does not make a profit, there is naturally no way to continue operating.

"Let's take inventory. Thank you for your hard work."

Boss Wuji announced as he looked at the team members in the conference room.

That day, Chang Yuan, the young reporter who had previously interviewed the Happy team, finally published a report in the E-Sports Home weekly report about Happy's victory over Wuji, who were eliminated from the Challenger League. Because Happy had already been criticized for their claims of winning the Challenger League, this report attracted even more attention from casual viewers to this little-known grassroots team.

In this report, the eliminated Wuji team was finally officially disbanded under the announcement of the team owner, entering a stage that is almost inevitable for a declining team: selling off all the team's valuable resources.

Professional teams like Wuji can sell both characters and equipment in the professional circle in exchange for the final profits of a disbanded team.

After all, accounts, characters, silver equipment and other things are just data in the game of Honor. Without Honor, they have no other value.

Every team member has different feelings towards the team. Some came late and did not stay for long, so naturally they cannot say they have any feelings for the team. The worst that can happen is that they will leave and find other small teams, or completely leave the professional circle and work in other industries.

Wu Chen, as the player with the longest career and the most seniority in the Wuji team, is probably the person with the most complicated emotions besides the Wuji boss.

Just as he was silently managing the resources of the Wuji Guild, the penguin at the bottom of the screen moved.

The person who was looking for him had an extremely ugly "smile" character as his profile picture, and his ID was "Jun Moxiao", which was definitely mentioned in the Glory gossip forum recently.

Happy, the opponent who kicked them out of the challenge tournament, is now coming to take over from them.

Wu Chen smiled bitterly, but this kind of thing could not be said to be moral or immoral. Winning or losing a game was not a personal grudge. Although a "grassroots team" like Happy was stronger than Wuji in terms of player strength, Wuji did have a lot of equipment that Happy could use.

After Wu Chen accepted Ye Xiu's friend request, the other party first exchanged a few pleasantries with Wu Chen, and then got straight to the point, asking about all the resources on Wuji's side.

On Xingxin's side, in addition to Wei Chen's 2000 million, Su Lan also has one million yuan in his bank account that can be used. This money is the current funds of the Xingxin team.

Compared to other truly "grassroots" teams, Happy's financial situation is indeed not bad. But compared to teams in other professional leagues, it can only be considered barely adequate. However, compared to those more powerful and financially powerful teams, Happy's advantage is that none of its "players" receive any salary.

That said, Happy sounds like they're exploiting their players, but Chen Guo has discussed this issue seriously with everyone, and everyone seems unconcerned. After all, the team provides food and lodging, and they live in a real, single-family villa, eating meals freshly prepared daily by Chef Su. Salary and the like don't seem like a big deal, right?

Moreover, Ye Xiu also said that this was only a problem their team would encounter in the early stages of the challenge tournament. After waiting for a few months and successfully obtaining a place in the league, not to mention the prize money of the challenge tournament, they would be able to seek sponsorship and have sufficient funds.

Sponsorship is not like wild flowers on the roadside that you can pick at random. Xingxin’s confidence comes from the fact that Chao Youqian has already prepared a detailed contract and will officially become their first sponsor once they win the challenge tournament.

As for this "team dormitory" and the computer equipment, they are just small gifts.

The future seemed bright, but unfortunately, Happy's funds weren't sufficient to take over all the characters and equipment left behind by Wuji. So when Ye Xiu contacted Wu Chen from Wuji to discuss the deal, he didn't act like he was talking about a big deal. Instead, he acted like he was browsing a small street stall, constantly asking, "Can this be cheaper?", "I don't need that, take it away for me," "I only want these few"...

Wu Chen, who was in charge of the handover between Wuji's boss and Ye Xiu, was stunned. When he asked why, the only answer he got was "Because we are poor."

Even the other members of Happy who had been with Ye Xiu for a long time were still not used to this overly direct negotiation method.

The reason why Ye Xiu's method worked was that apart from Happy, no other challenge tournament team was willing to take on Wuji, even though it could greatly supplement their overall strength.

After several days of failing to find a buyer better than Happy, Wu Chen suddenly understood why.

This year's challenge is different from usual ones. In previous years, all teams with professional league experience were almost on the same starting line. Being able to swallow up another team's equipment and characters can greatly widen the gap with other opponents.

And this year, their final opponent is the Excellent Era team led by Sun Xiang, Xiao Shiqin, and Su Mucheng!

Who would be willing to spend this money to "invest" in a business that has almost no chance of getting a return?

Only the Happy team.

However, no one in the challenge tournament is willing to purchase Wuji's characters and equipment, and there should be teams at the bottom of the rankings in the professional league that are willing to do so.

However, these teams are not in a hurry. They can wait until the Wuji team is in urgent need and clears out their inventory at a low price before taking over. At that time, it is not certain whether the price offered by Xingxin will be higher than that offered by Xingxin.

As for this year's new "rich" team in the Glory League, Yi Zhan, their silver equipment inventory is comparable to that of a poor team in the league. They're the kind of wealthy team that won't miss any opportunity to acquire silver equipment. However, they're in league with Happy. Wu Chen hadn't seen Yi Zhan contact him in a few days, and he'd learned this from the ambiguous gossip surrounding his relationship with Ye Qiu.

After listening to Wu Chen's analysis, Boss Wuji felt helpless. He knew that if he didn't reach a deal with Xingxin, Yizhan would probably not make a move. He could only let Wu Chen go along with Xingxin to complete the deal. Then, Xingxin would introduce Yizhan to them without them having to say anything.

"Send them the list..."

After receiving the list of equipment, materials, and character skill points from Wuji, Ye Xiu didn't look through it himself first, but sent it directly to Su Lan and Wei Chen.

The only two professions that Wuji and Xingxin have in common are the sharpshooter and the warlock. Since they don't have much money, they must spend it wisely, and only consider the silver equipment that the two of them need most.

Su Lan opened the document, took a look, and sighed.

It’s not that Wuji’s sharpshooter’s silver equipment is too bad, nor is it that the attributes on it are too good, but that each piece of silver equipment has points that can be disassembled and used again by him, but these points do not account for a large proportion of the price of these silver equipment, which is equivalent to spending the entire price for a part of it.

He can't just dismantle the silver suit, take the part he needs, and then return the part he doesn't want, right?

Now he has to make more choices.

The situation is almost the same on Wei Chen's side.

For two or three hours, the two of them groaned incessantly, scrolling up and down with their mouse wheels. They treated a list of barely a few hundred words like a paper. Furthermore, they would periodically switch to the equipment editor and fiddle with it as if simulating something. It was like they were running a simulation and recording data.

"I've made my choice." Su Lan not only understood his own needs very well, but he could also use the data on the list to analyze the maximum benefit of each silver suit for developing new equipment. He made decisions much faster than Wei Chen standing next to him.

"Come." Ye Xiu gave up his seat to the other party.

Wu Chen on the other end of the network cable probably never expected that Ye Xiu was not the only one negotiating with him.

"There are some issues with the properties of this ring..." As soon as Su Lan came up, he picked out the flaws of each piece of equipment, just like when looking at a house with an agent, he would first talk about the shortcomings of the house so that he could lower the price.

Wu Chen was not a student who had just entered society. He had been working in the professional circle for some years, so of course he understood the other party's intentions.

But how to counter is a problem.

Su Lan was interested in three pieces of silver armor worn by Wu Ji's sharpshooter, plus one piece worn by Wu Chen's gunner character Xiao Qiang, but the price he quoted was 55.

"55..." Wu Chen was powerless. This price was not too low, but it was just below Wuji's bottom line.

"The quality of the headdress on the gunner is a bit average compared to the other pieces." Su Lan explained that if you only look at the three silver pieces on the sharpshooter, a price of 50 is actually quite fair. Adding the gunner's piece, it's not much more.

"If you add a pair of gunner's boots, it'll be 65."

Su Lan added: "Five pieces together."

"I need to ask about this again." Wu Chen said this, but he already had an idea in his mind.

He is the operator of Xiaoqiang, and he knows the properties and value of the two silver suits best. Su Lan's offer is indeed very accurate. It did not make Wuji suffer any loss, but it cannot be said that he made any profit either.

"Don't worry, we also have some needs for the warlock's equipment and materials." Before Wu Chen opened the chat window with his boss, Ye Xiu's Penguin account, which was borrowed by Su Lan, sent another message.

Wu Chen understood what this meant. The other party was prepared. He was piling up demands one by one and bargaining for prices at the same time.

He didn't feel that the other party was negotiating a big deal with him, but rather it seemed like he was trying to get a discount when shopping online!
