Chapter 249: Barça Legend Treasure Chest Opens (Daily Transition)

La Ji Ti Qi stood in front of the billboard, accepting reporters' interviews.

His shoulder still bore the Arsenal number 10 jersey.

He is not a product of La Masia youth training, and when he speaks he has few reservations.

After a simple summary of the match, the Croatian, with a stern face, said seriously.

"There's nothing shameful about losing to Li; I predict that this season no European club can defeat Arsenal unless he is injured and unable to play."

"Li is only 18 this year, his growth speed is astonishing; the Golden Boy award should be renamed the Li Kang Award. If I were to retire right now and go get a coaching license, I still have a chance to work with him for twenty years."

"Being in the same era as Li is the misfortune of all midfield players."

"He is one of a kind; his teammates should learn how to give more for him, whether for the national team or the club, and cherish this opportunity."

"Those who say I just know how to stick to Li's backside, I want to say, what a wonderful backside that is!"

The scene instantly erupted with thunderous applause.

Reporters showered admiring glances: an upright, unyielding Barça all‑round warrior, he is praising Li despite the fury of Catalan fans.

The press officer and Barcelona executives had stiff expressions, then quickly relaxed:

No problem.

Boasting about the opponent... can also cover up the club's incompetence.

The entire Arsenal squad returned to the Colney training base.

Wen Ge hesitated for a long time, but still decided to give the players a day off.

Wen Ge intends to let Mo Te Sa Ke lead the youth team youngsters into battle—players like Yin Wo Bi, Sa Ka, S Luo... a bunch of little black and white eggs crying to be fed.

Why Mo Te Sa Ke?

Because the German two‑meter giant loves children.

Wen Ge left for Arsenal not only a new stadium and a club operating model, but also a youth‑training system that trickles on like a gentle stream.

However, the youth‑training results of this historical period currently look inferior to those of Tottenham and Manchester United.

The EFL Cup schedule two days later is set.

But the weekend Premier League match makes one feel a bit troubled.

"Mu Li Ni Ao's team will study our match footage around the clock."

"And he himself will conserve his energy... to greet us with the most arrogant posture."

Boerde clenched his fist and spoke resolutely.

Wen Ge directly announced the dissolution.

The players quickly left the training ground.

Each harboring their own thoughts.

Sang Qie Si secretly called his agent, telling him not to get entangled with Manchester United: he will not leave Arsenal.

Mo La Ta recalled his time at the Castilla youth academy.

At 17 he was spotted by Mu Li Ni Ao, promoted to Real Madrid's first team... his La Liga debut staged a heroic turn‑the‑tide performance; hmm... if his shooting were a bit more superb, he would already be the second Bernabeu prince.

Li Kang returned home holding a tablet.

The screen was replaying Manchester United's match footage.

He couldn't make out anything.

The sample size is too small.

In three matches, Mu Li Ni Ao‑style Manchester United displayed three completely different playing styles.

The details varied endlessly.

With Bo Ge Ba's position shifting, Yin Bu's ball‑receiving tendency, Lin Jia De's off‑the‑ball runs... even involving Ma Ta and Ka Li Ke's appearances, Manchester United can combine too many attacking strong‑side pairings!

Who says Mu Li Ni Ao only knows how to park the bus?

This guy is just more pragmatic.

Now many fans think: 'Mu Li Ni Ao daring to take over Manchester United is basically ruining his reputation twenty years early!'

But he really is like a wizard; in the first three matches he led Manchester United to play an extremely sharp attacking football.

After a long while.

The shadow in his brain contracted wildly.

Li Kang lay limp on the sofa, still unable to decipher anything.

Lin Jia De's off‑the‑ball movement is the strongest interference item... he is not the core, yet he is the strongest auxiliary plug‑in in the attacking strong side, and his ability is far superior to last season.

A system notification sounded softly.

【Ding, congratulations on completing the mission: Dynasty's Downfall.】

【Mission brief: Why weren't you born a few years earlier? Go challenge that heavenly cosmic team.】

【Congratulations on obtaining: Barça Legend·Dark Gold Treasure Chest.】

A peculiarly patterned treasure chest hovered in midair.

Li Kang hurriedly glanced at the prize pool.

【Bu Si Ke Ci 'Precision Deconstruction' Module.】

【Yinniesita 'Spiritual Insight Strike' Module.】

【Ha Wei 'Synchronized Rhythm' Module.】

【En Ri Ke 'Diamond Bullfighter' Module.】

【Mei Xi 'Shoulder‑Drop Matthews' Module.】

【Su Ya Lei Si 'Ultimate Flexibility' Module.】

【...】

A dazzling variety of attribute modules.

Not lacking the epithets of legendary stars such as Da Luo, Figo, Romário, Rivaldo, etc.

Limited by the treasure chest's level, only able to obtain a module with a single ability.

【Opening...】

【Congratulations on obtaining: Ronaldo's "pendulum" module (damaged)!】

【Alien.】

【Torn cruciate ligament.】

【This freakish dribbling move... puts an enormous load on your knees.】

Pendulum dribble?

The treasure chest emitted a soft glow.

Li Kang felt nothing unusual.

Divine skill is divine skill.

But in today's football defensive structure... there is hardly any chance to use it.

It is very space-consuming.

This defective module must also possess Ronaldo's other extraordinary traits in order to be perfectly executed.

Unless...

The Champions League group stage is in full swing.

Two days later, the results of the first round of matchups were all out.

Aside from Barcelona 0:5 Arsenal and Leverkusen 2:1 Tottenham Hotspur, no surprising scoreline results emerged.

《Monaco and Eindhoven drew, Barcelona sank into a slump, temporarily at the bottom of the group. 》

《Guardiola-style Manchester City's confusion, losing at home to Paris Saint-Germain. 》

《The pharmacy club continues its dark horse momentum, Ba Shen resurges and fiercely defeats Lille. 》

《Son Heung-min seemingly unable to fit into Tottenham's dressing room: being outjumped by Lamela and scolded by the goalkeeper. 》

《Balotelli: I really like the May 9 Park next to the training base; if I join Ligue 1 Nice, I would also become the top scorer. 》

The barrage went crazy, filling the screen.

-【Barcelona couldn't possibly be eliminated in the group stage, right? In my lifetime, will I ever get to see the cosmic team play in the Europa League?】

-【Maybe there won't even be a chance to play in the Europa League, but it's still early; don't worry too much, once Messi's injury heals he'll surely dominate.】

-【Guardiola-style Manchester City's Champions League record... might not even be as good as Pellegrini's, right? The performance is so awful.】

-【Dressing-room issues: some veteran players know they're going to be cleared out by Guardiola, but Guardiola this season also has to keep them to complete the transition; in such a short summer transfer window, there's no time to buy suitable players.】

-【Leverkusen is awesome, they didn't waste Xiao Li Zi's transfer fee! The opponent is Tottenham, after all!】

-【Wo Le Er has good vision! Balotelli really had a moment of brilliance; if he hadn't joined Leverkusen in the summer window... going to Nice would also let him dominate Ligue 1!】

-【What a pity there's no chance to partner with Xiao Li Zi, the new king of two European Championships!】

-【Son Heung-min shouldn't have left; staying at Leverkusen he might have become the attacking core and won a championship, instead of going to Tottenham to be a fool.】

-【Tottenham is strong, just that several main players got injured early in the season... I'm more looking forward to this season's North London derby.】

-【The schedule is really packed; Li Mingdeng just finished playing Barcelona, and now he's about to play Manchester United.】
