The King's Avatar: Become Stronger After Being Rejected, Don't Agree!

"Then why do you want me to fight Xiao Tang?" Ye Xiu asked somewhat helplessly, "Is there some special reason?"

"Didn't I just say that?" Chen Guo looked at Ye Xiu, somewhat bewildered, and asked, "I wanted to show you if Xiao Tang has the skills of a professional player!"

"This..." Ye Xiu gave a wry smile. Being a professional player isn't easy. He reached into his pocket, his expression changed slightly, and he nodded seriously, turning to ask, "Oh, is that so? Then I'll give it a try. Is there a prize?"

"What prize do you want?" Tang Rou smiled when she heard Ye Xiu's words.

"How about a pack of cigarettes or something?" He'd been staying up late a lot these past few nights, so his cigarettes were running out quickly. Ye Xiu was too embarrassed to ask for an advance on his salary or borrow from Xiao Chen. He'd just checked his pockets and found only an empty cigarette pack…

"Okay, but I don't smoke, Xiao Chen..." Tang Rou glanced at Lu Chen.

"I don't know either!" Lu Chen shook his head repeatedly, immediately expressing his determination.

Tang Rou nodded. She had tried smoking before, but she really disliked the feeling. If Xiao Chen didn't smoke either, that would be great. "Then, how about we make a bet of a hundred yuan?"

"Okay..." Ye Xiu was about to say yes, but after glancing at Lu Chen, he said helplessly, "Never mind, just take the small dust account book from the shop."

"Don't worry, don't worry, no problem." Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief: "So, what's the prize, Brother Ye?"

Ye Xiu pondered for a moment and then took out a cigarette case: "I have a rather expensive cigarette case..."

Lu Chen looked at Ye Xiu speechlessly.

Ye Xiu coughed awkwardly twice.

"You're really desperate for money. Here, I'll lend you a hundred." Chen Guo sighed.

"Okay!" Ye Xiu said with a cheerful laugh.

He didn't think he would lose at all, especially since... he was using Lord Grim and the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella. To win against a free agent on his first try was something that probably no one in the entire professional league could do.

Chen Guo and Lu Chen stood behind Tang Rou, waiting for the arena to be set up. Chen Guo said cheerfully, "Xiao Chen, Tang is really good at Glory. You two can play together later, and she can help you out and keep an eye on you a bit."

Lu Chen glanced at Ye Xiu over there: "Huh? Really? But fighting the God of War..."

"Hahaha, he even told you he was Ye Qiu!" Chen Guo couldn't help but laugh. "If he's Ye Qiu, then I really am Su Mucheng!"

Looking at Chen Guo's determined eyes, Lu Chen asked with a grin, "So, what if it really is true?"

"What if it's true?" Chen Guo chuckled, pointing to the living room, "I'll wash my hair upside down right there!"

"Is it a deal?" Lu Chen asked with a smile.

"It's a deal! Hey! It's starting!" Chen Guo excitedly watched the match: "Hmm? Wait a minute... Hey! Ye Xiu, what the heck is that weapon of yours?"

"You even have questions?" Ye Xiu wasn't even wearing headphones, so he could naturally hear Chen Guo's question.

Chen Guo grew increasingly annoyed by Ye Xiu's appearance, and quickly leaned closer to Tang Rou, saying, "He plays a character called 'unspecialized,' a very old-fashioned playstyle. I heard that it involves constantly changing equipment to unleash skills, so you can tell what skill he's going to use just by looking at his weapon..."

"[Naive, so naive! How could the free agent I created be the same as ordinary people!]" Su Muqiu said smugly. "[Come on, Xiao Chen, call me big brother, and from now on, I'll take care of all your equipment!]"

"I refuse." Lu Chen was about to say okay, but then he remembered that he hadn't finished his "refusal task" with Su Muqiu yet, so he quickly refused.

[Ding, rejection value detected. Reward: Intermediate Silver Weapon Crafting Skills (Beginner Level)]

"Hmm, very good." Lu Chen's lips curled up slightly.

[Silver weapon, Xiao Chen! A real silver weapon, not just a cheap imitation!] Su Muqiu was getting anxious.

"Angang, it's starting..."

Su Muqiu sighed helplessly and turned to look at the match between Ye Xiu and Tang Rou.

Overall, how should I put it?

It can only be said that Zhu Yanxia's health dropped very quickly, just as Su Muqiu had predicted, without any setbacks.

"Your little girlfriend is quite honest; she really doesn't know how to play Honor of Kings. Her perspective, prediction, and command reading are all terrible..." Su Muqiu sighed.

"Um..." Lu Chen glanced at Su Muqiu: "Although it is indeed a bit bad, we can't say it's impossible..."

"It's not entirely without merit; your hand speed is quite fast." Su Muqiu scratched his head: "However, Glory isn't just about hand speed and reaction time. Has Xiao Chen ever been to an arcade?"

"Hmm." Lu Chen was a little confused as to why Su Muqiu asked that question.

"That makes sense. Your girlfriend is probably the type who just randomly slams down buttons. She has no strategy, no tactics, and doesn't adapt her actions based on the opponent's movements. She just randomly presses buttons. If she wants to beat Ye Xiu like that... she's still a long way off." Su Muqiu said with a smile.

"Shall we call it a day?" Ye Xiu asked as the game was nearing its end.

Tang Rou frowned. Although the outcome was already decided, she still hadn't given up and remained focused on her game. But Ye Xiu's words made her stop: "Why?"

"So you really don't know how to play." Ye Xiu shrugged.

"..." Tang Rou frowned.

"Huh?!" Chen Guo yawned, clearly displeased.

"Fast hand speed, but terrible game coordination, zero adaptability to perspective switching, no understanding of equipment or skills, and in actual combat... how many games have you played? At most, you've done some mechanical operations like switching cards?" Ye Xiu thought for a moment and concluded, "With this level of skill, it'll probably take a hundred years to beat me."

"Then why don't you continue?" Tang Rou frowned even deeper and asked before Chen Guo could speak.

"It's not a fair victory... cough cough, by the way, um, boss lady, you said you wanted to lend me a hundred yuan, could you give it to me...?" Ye Xiu turned to look at Chen Guo.

"Again." Tang Rou took a deep breath.

"Huh?" Ye Xiu was taken aback.

Lu Chen looked at Tang Rou. After pursuing her for more than three months, Lu Chen had gained a deeper understanding of Tang Rou. He knew that his stubborn little girlfriend must be very unwilling now: "Brother Ye, let's have another fight with Sister Rou. I'll go buy you some cigarettes."

"Uh, okay..." Ye Xiu looked at Lu Chen and nodded.

Tang Rou turned back and smiled at Lu Chen, then turned her head and her expression became extremely serious.

Lu Chen sighed, stroked Tang Rou's short hair, walked towards the bar, bought a pack of cigarettes, and as soon as he returned, Su Muqiu kept clicking his tongue in admiration: "Almost nine rounds lost, and another one started."

Lu Chen was taken aback, looked at the cigarettes in his hand, and realized he hadn't bought enough...

"Again……"

"Ahem, um, here, Brother Ye, a cigarette." Lu Chen quickly came over and handed the cigarette to Ye Xiu.

"Oh, so many! Thanks, Xiao Chen."

Tang Rou glared at Xiao Chen, who had interrupted the match, with a rather angry expression. Chen Guo, standing to the side, was almost dumbfounded. So, in the first match, Ye Xiu had actually let Hai win?!

Ye Xiu happily tore open a pack of cigarettes, lit one with relish, and took a deep drag: "Um, let me rest for a bit... By the way, Xiao Chen, want to play a round?"

"Sure, how about a pack of cigarettes as the prize?" Lu Chen asked with a smile.

"No need, just treat it as a training session." Ye Xiu smiled and shook his head: "I'll use a free agent to help you understand the skill combos and variations..."

[Ding! Rejection value detected. Reward: Game tactical commands maxed out!]

[Say yes, Xiao Chen!] Su Muqiu grinned maliciously: [The Teaching Bureau, huh? Xiao Chen, I'll tell you how to beat him! Increase this guy's strength!]
