Chapter 27

~5 min read 869 words

That makes sense,

If there were no entry conditions and ordinary players could just go in, that'd be handing out beans,

And might even drag down teammates.

But for him,

Meeting those conditions was nothing more than a trivial task.

The biggest problem now was actually the team match,

He couldn't even reach the minimum level 60 required to join a team,

Where would he go to play team matches?

"Forget it, during this period, I'll first settle the win streaks in ranked, five-player, and eight-player military contention modes."

"After finishing those rounds, my level should be there."

"Then I'll casually join a team and complete the team 1v1 ten-win-streak quest,"

"And I can unlock the Landlord mode and go wild grabbing beans!"

…………

While Gu Xuan was deep in thought,

On the other side,

Wang Lingling saw that the big shot still hadn't replied to her message,

She couldn't help feeling a bit anxious inside,

After hesitating for a moment, she typed again in the chat box:

"Big shot, are you still there?"

"Actually, I came to find you because I wanted to ask if you still need a teammate for ranked."

"Don't worry, I absolutely won't drag you down!"

Saying that, Wang Lingling also shared her ranked match record over.

Her adding the big shot as a friend

Also carried a little ulterior motive of wanting to latch onto a strong player.

After all, the teammates randomly matched in ranked were truly too awful,

If she had a big shot as a fixed duo partner, climbing ranks would be much easier for her.

Two minutes after the message was sent, there was still no response from the other side.

Wang Lingling at this point had already lost her earlier excitement,

She felt a little disappointed inside,

But it was absolutely not to the point of being angry.

"The big shot being skilled is one thing, but he has no obligation to carry me."

"Last game he saved my dog's life, and I still haven't repaid him."

"This kind of request really is a bit greedy."

Thinking it over, Wang Lingling felt a bit of shame,

She opened the chat window in the game space and quickly said:

"Big shot, sorry, I was being abrupt…"

Before she could finish typing the full message,

The window shook,

And a new message appeared:

No. 1314: "Sure, ten tomorrow morning, I'll invite you."

Wang Lingling looked at the message, first rubbed her eyes,

After making sure she hadn't misread it,

A surge of joy instantly welled up in her heart.

This is……

He agreed?!

A surge of joy welled up in her heart,

Wang Lingling bounced hard on the bed a couple of times,

Then threw herself flat, grabbed the pillow and covered her head,

Kicking her feet excitedly.

"The big shot is such a nice person…"

She finally wouldn't have to put up with idiot teammates anymore!

After replying with:

"Thanks big shot, good night big shot.",

Wang Lingling lay on the bed, but couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

"No way!"

"The big shot just saved me last game,"

"And tomorrow morning he's carrying me to climb ranks again, this kindness must be repaid!"

After thinking on the bed for a moment,

Wang Lingling slapped the mattress and had an idea.

"Can't sleep anyway."

"Better compile some common knowledge only veteran players would know and send it to the big shot tomorrow morning."

Consider it a small token of my regard.

…………

The reason he agreed to the Huang Gai player's ranked match request

was because Gu Xuan figured that

ranked was 2v2 mode, and even though he was playing an underworld-tier general,

the more he played, the more inevitably he'd run into those terrible teammates.

He needed a ten-win streak, so to be on the safe side,

it was still more reliable to first find a dependable person to duo-queue with.

Gu Xuan watched the match replay the Huang Gai player had sent over.

Mechanics and all were decent,

and he also had a certain understanding of the popular generals' skills and the function of armor and weapons.

At the very least, there wouldn't be situations where a teammate plays Empty City and drops Five Grains, while the opponent's Benevolence King plays Black Kill.

Even more remarkably,

she actually knew that Easy Pickings could pick off Lured by Luxury.

One had to know that this little trick

many new Three Kingdoms Kill players weren't even clear on.

"Although in that one game, her braindead teammate Negated that Easy Pickings."

"But can't deny it, this guy's mechanics really are on point."

"And her luck… is also absurdly good."

Several rounds of Luxury all passed through, playing Huang Gai three times, and all three times drew Zhuge.

This made Gu Xuan couldn't help but sigh,

what kind of immortal technique is this.

The two matches today had consumed no small amount of energy.

Gu Xuan finished washing up, fell onto the bed, and was asleep in an instant.

His breathing was very light, and he slept especially soundly.

But at this moment,

many factions that had seen Gu Xuan's battle video tonight

had all lost any desire for sleep.
