Chapter 991: The nature is different

Club, infirmary.

"It's okay, it's almost gone. I estimate it won't be visible in another week." The doctor checked Owen's cheek, couldn't help but look at him more, and asked: "You didn't come to me to change the medicine or open the medicine, did you ask for leave?"

Owen nodded with a flat face.

The doctor curled his lips: "So you also know that it's not good to have a swollen face. Then don't fight in the future. You are also an adult. The way to solve problems should also be mature. Being impulsive and wanting to do it is childish."

Owen didn't answer and left directly after getting up.

Teammates were waiting for him outside the door. Seeing him come out, they swarmed up: "Brother Wen, you are finally back. Let's go, I'll treat you to a drink."

A group of people crowded Owen to the rest hall. Others saw Owen and couldn't help but glance frequently, covering their mouths and whispering: "Haven't seen Owen for a long time..."

"Heard he asked for leave."

"Didn't get the qualification for the competition. Relying on Owen's face-valuing personality, his mentality must have collapsed..."

Owen's group came to the corner. Someone opened his mouth to care first: "Brother Wen, how is your face? Does it still hurt?"

Another person observed: "I see it's still a bit swollen. How long has it been and it hasn't gone down yet? Brother Wen is going to 'soloking' soon, won't he have to be on camera with a swollen face?"

Owen glared at that person, scaring that person to shut his mouth hurriedly.

Not wanting to discuss his face, Owen looked at the few people and asked with a cold tone: "Any situation lately?"

A few people looked at each other. Someone hesitated and opened his mouth: "Brother Wen, you are asking if Shen Xing and the others have any situation, right?"

A cold light flashed in Owen's eyes, and then he heard the other party say in a mosquito-sized voice: "Indeed there is. A few days ago, the coaching staff made public the battle win rate of the club's local area network for the past three months, and Shen Xing's team is..."

Owen narrowed his eyes, and then heard the other party say: "It's the first place..."

The others were also startled, because they had already felt Owen's anger in an instant.

"First?" Owen didn't believe it and asked again.

As a result, a few people nodded: "The win rate is 94.8%."

"What about us?" Owen asked again.

"We are third, the win rate is 87.3%."

The gap in the data was so obvious that Owen couldn't help but clench his fists.

"Brother Wen, the coaching staff usually doesn't make public the win rate of the internal network. This time, it was suddenly made public, probably to let everyone see the strength of Shen Xing's team and use it to convince the public."

"Indeed, with this basis of win rate, it's easier for Shen Xing and the others to get the quota to convince people

Owen's complexion grew even uglier.

"Brother Wen, don't think about other things for now. Although there is no 'Youth Training Tournament,' you still have 'soloking.' The competition is coming up soon. If you have the chance to face Shen Xing, you can eliminate him with your strength, and then you can rightfully prove that you are better than him."

"Right!"

"That's right, Brother Wen, everyone knows your skills!"

Owen let out a deep breath, but his mind was a chaotic mess.

"By the way, Brother Wen, there's one more thing." Someone else spoke up suddenly, their tone shifting from the previous heaviness to something noticeably more cheerful: "The club issued a notice this morning; from now on, people outside the club are prohibited from entering the building."

"What do you mean?" Owen asked, frowning.

"It means outsiders can't enter the club anymore. During the time you were away, that big guy from last time was always following Shen Xing and the others. I assume he's some kind of bodyguard, but now that big guy can't get in."

At the same time, downstairs, Shen Xing was being stopped by someone.

"What do you mean?"

Shen Xing looked at the staff member blocking him and Cheng An, asking in confusion: "When was this notice issued? I could still get in yesterday!"

"The notice is from today. From now on, anyone without a club access card cannot enter, unless there is a special situation with an advance appointment," the staff member explained.

Shen Xing glanced at Cheng An, who also looked a bit bewildered.

"Then, then I'll wait for you downstairs. Send me a message if anything happens," Cheng An said.

It was their rules, so he couldn't very well force his way in.

"Brother, then you should go back. Don't wait downstairs," Shen Xing said with a helpless look.

Waiting downstairs wouldn't be of any use; if he couldn't get up, he couldn't get up.

But Cheng An was very stubborn: "That won't do. Protecting you is my job; how could I go back? I'll just wait downstairs. If anything really happens, you send me a message. This turnstile won't be able to stop me."

Shen Xing pondered for a moment, and in the end, he nodded: "Alright then, you can just sit on that sofa over there."

After swiping his card to enter, Shen Xing took the elevator straight upstairs to the coach's office.

"Coach, were you looking for me?"

He knocked on the office door. Only Chen Nianhao was inside. Seeing Shen Xing arrive, he nodded expressionlessly, signaling for Shen Xing to close the door.

Shen Xing walked closer and saw Coach Chen look at him, sigh first, and then say: "Shen Xing, we saw the incident where you injured Owen through the surveillance cameras."

Shen Xing: "..."

"That man from outside was brought in by you, right?" Chen Nianhao asked.

Shen Xing quickly explained: "Coach, there are many girls on the team. As the captain, I was a bit worried about their safety, so..."

The coaching staff naturally understood what the boys in the club were like.

"You don't need to be nervous. The club won't hold you responsible for this matter, but because of this incident, the club has issued a new regulation: outsiders are not allowed to enter. You should know about this by now, right?"

Shen Xing nodded, but couldn't help saying: "But Coach, isn't the club's management of fighting between players a bit too lax?"

"Regarding this situation, our coaching staff will hold a meeting to discuss it. But regardless, you shouldn't have brought someone from outside into the club to beat up a club player."

Chen Nianhao straightened his expression, his tone displeased: "Shen Xing, you need to know that the club could have called the police over the nature of this!"

Shen Xing's expression wasn't good either. He actually understood that the coach's meaning was clearly that no matter how much fighting happened inside the club, it was an internal club matter and controllable for the club.

But the nature of an outsider coming in was completely different.

He felt very unconvinced and looked at Coach Chen, asking: "Coach, you said the coaching staff saw the surveillance from that day. Then you should have also seen Owen and his six or seven male friends blocking us, right? And besides me, everyone else on our side is a girl. It was also Owen who started it by grabbing my collar..."

"Then I'd like to ask, if a conflict had broken out that day, we would definitely have been the ones to suffer! If the coaching staff had known, what would you have done? Would you have dealt with Owen and the others?"
