Yu Xi accidentally tripped over a chair. This caused him to collide with the person next to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xi hurriedly apologized to the person that he bumped into: “My bad. I’m sorry that I bumped into you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man that Yu Xi bumped into was a young man in his twenties. He was not very tall and had a thin build. He had thin cheeks and eyes that appeared to look a bit triangular as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man didn’t reply nicely to Yu Xi: “If you know that you’re sorry, then you shouldn’t have come in the first place.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he turned his head and walked away in disgust. It seemed as though if he spoke one more word to Yu Xi, it’d be insulting himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xi wasn’t stupid. He understood what the other person had meant. And thus, he walked forward to stop that man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I apologized for bumping into you. However, you’re wrong to say such a thing without any evidence. You shouldn’t be mocking someone else. Because of that, you have to apologize to me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What did I say? Did I make a sarcastic remark or something? Was there anything wrong with what I just said? I think you just have a weak and guilty conscience. Not everything is about you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man refused to acknowledge the sarcasm that was in his words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he called out to the security guards: “Security guards, a player from another team is picking a fight in private. Please take care of them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The security guards rushed over. The other players who were about to leave the venue also stopped in their tracks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The teams from other countries didn’t know what was happening. However, all the domestic players knew what was being discussed on the Internet for the past two days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were a lot of people who were discontent with the team called [Domination.] Everyone felt that they had paid for a place in the tournament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone else had achieved their spot in the tournament using their own abilities and skills. However, a certain team had broken the rules. They had merely used their money to attend the tournament. The glory of attending such a tournament was incredibly important to the rest of them!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some of them recognized the man that Yu Xi was arguing with. He was someone from [Rely on Others.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was said that the members of [Rely on Others] were on good terms with another team called [Gangster League.] Unfortunately, during the online tournament, [Gangster League] had finished in the 21st spot. Due to this, they did not qualify for the offline tournament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And thus, there was speculation amongst the players that the members of [Rely on Others] were upset about the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xi demanded a clear explanation: “Well, be clear with your words. What do you mean by if you know that you’re sorry, then you shouldn’t have come in the first place?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It doesn’t mean much. A certain few people should know exactly what I mean. They should think about how they managed to qualify for the tournament in the first place. If you don’t have a guilty conscience in the first place, would you care about what I’m saying? Why are you acting as if you’re ready to fight someone just because another person said a few words?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xi was annoyed. Although he wasn’t as skilled as the other members of his team, he had practiced a lot in the past few weeks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had the talent and the skills! So why was that guy saying those things?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xi had put up with all those comments on the Internet. He couldn’t argue with each and every one of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Yu Xi couldn’t stand the other contestants dissing him like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you mean by a guilty conscience? Psh, as expected, no good words can be expected from a scoundrel!” Yu Xi spat out. He was so angry that he was ready to fight with the other guy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[1] Translator Note: Clouds = Yun & Victory = Sheng Qin Yufan based her team’s name on Zhai Yunsheng’s name\u003C\u002Fp>",786,"2026-06-06T02:08:54.443Z",1,"novelbin.me","a565af614859c647953d8d0f9f314e3556bc2cd9b4f40bae74f2d390e8099884","from-sidekick-to-bigshot-chapter-455","from-sidekick-to-bigshot-chapter-404",1465,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffrom-sidekick-to-bigshot-cover.jpg"]
