CH 75

That night, Qiu Zhenyang announced the news that the members would be selected the next day. Some members who didn’t go to the club classroom because of something in the afternoon were also excitedly looking forward to it. Although there is no e-sports competition in Interstellar, small competitions are often held between players, and each competition will get a very enthusiastic response.

Because Qiu Zhenyang chose teammates based on their performance in the battle, everyone showed their greatest strength the next day, not trying to win the game in the battle, but to play the role they were best at to show off their value.

“My god, you guys are so good at playing games! Especially when you and Qiu Zhenyang led the team separately, the battle situation was so intense that my blood was boiling!” In the evening, more than 20 people from the club gathered at the milk tea shop for dinner. Guan Tang sat at Ling Mu’s table, constantly blowing rainbow farts at Ling Mu in admiration.

In fact, Guan Tang also really wanted to participate. He wanted to show Nie Chen some color1as in, beat Nie Chen, or give him a metaphorical faceslap in the competition to let him know that he was not a soft persimmon either! But after watching several rounds in the afternoon, and being abused in two games, he finally gave up.

The matter of the competition should be left to Qiu Zhenyang and Ling Mu. He can be a cheerleader. The most important thing is not to hold back their team…

So Guan Tang became the manager of the club and was responsible for assisting vice president Zhuo Hang.

“It’s Qiu Zhenyang who is amazing. I learned from him.” Ling Mu took a sip of milk tea. This kind of being admired is quite novel, and not annoying.

Eyes glowing with excitement, Guan Tang continued to exclaim: “No matter what, you are too powerful! Even if someone taught you, for you to reach this level in a short period of time, it is already better than most people! There were also several omega seniors and seniors in the club I was in before, but after studying for a year or two, their skills are still very poor, and their talent is a lot lower than yours!”

Suddenly remembering his previous club, Guan Tang was not in a good mood, and split the chicken wings with a frown. “I really feel bad just thinking about them now. Ling Mu, you will definitely win the game, then I will make fun of those bad guys!”

Seeing Guan Tang viciously gnaw on the chicken wings, as if he were biting on enemies, Ling Mu’s lips curled up.

On the other side of the table, Yuan Chenyu heard Guan Tang gnashing his teeth, and couldn’t help laughing. “Don’t worry Guan Tang, when the game starts, we will definitely kill! There is no need for Zhenyang and Ling Mu to shoot. A few of us are enough to clean them up!”

Qiu Zhenyang, who was at the same table, raised his eyebrows and shrugged noncommittally.

The few people who were selected into the team followed suit. “That’s right! The president will train us well in the next few days. Don’t worry manager, we will definitely win!”

Guan Tang was moved for a while. In the previous club, he never had such treatment. Even if someone took the initiative to chat with him, ten out of ten times it was for money!

“Ling Mu, I’m really happy, I’ll definitely do things for our club well in the future and be the most competent manager!” Guan Tang patted the table confidently, full of momentum.

Ling Mu toasted him with his milk tea: “En, work hard.”

Although there are only two omegas in their club, there are actually several omegas who privately asked him if they can join. After all, not all omegas are as bold as Guan Tang, and many are still worried that the club will discriminate against omega players.

However, the club is not planning to expand its members for the time being, so Ling Mu refused, saying that he would tell them when membership was expanded.

Seeing that everyone had almost finished, Qiu Zhenyang stood up and said: “Official training starts tomorrow. All participating members will gather after the afternoon class. I’ll get dinner sent directly to the club room. We don’t have much time to prepare, so I hope everyone will do their best.”

Yuan Chenyu raised his hand: “There’s no need to be so serious, bro. With you to lead us, let alone those little shrimps, even amongst all players, it’s impossible to have someone who surpasses our team, right?”

Zhuo Hang kicked him and said angrily: “Didn’t you just say Ling Mu and him don’t need to play, but now you suddenly change your tone? Is it okay to have a little ambition?”

Everyone laughed, and cast teasing eyes at Yuan Chenyu.

“No, aren’t I complimenting him, to help show off our president’s arrogance! What ambition, we must win! Is that okay, president?” Yuan Chenyu smiled and winked at Qiu Zhenyang.

Qiu Zhenyang said helplessly: “Okay, in fact, what I want to tell you is that this competition is just the beginning. I might as well share that the game department of the First Consortium has already started to apply to the Federation to have an e-sports league. At that time, such competitions will be recognized, and the champion will be honored under a fair and equitable ruling.”

When these words came out, everyone present was shocked.

A formal… e-sports competition?

This has never happened in the entire interstellar history. Are games really about to enter the most glorious period?

Seeing everyone’s expressions, Qiu Zhenyang smiled. “But it’s not that easy, and it may not be successful in the short term. Don’t make it public for the time being. I’m just telling you that in the future, e-sports can also become a career. If you really love e-sports, and have the heart to practice hard, maybe you can become professional players in the future.”

Everyone couldn’t help falling silent, with a mixture of excitement and nervousness on their faces.

Guan Tang approached and asked Ling Mu, “Is this true Ling Mu? My god, your husband is too handsome!”

Ling Mu nodded when he heard the first half of the sentence, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, his ears turned red, and he patted Guan Tang’s hand. “What nonsense? He’s not my husband.”

Seeing his arrogant appearance, Guan Tang let out a sly smile, and his eyes went back and forth on Ling Mu’s neck where the collar was exposed. He glanced at him and said in a sour tone, “Still saying no when both of you have rolled in the sheets. Look at these little strawberries, tsk tsk, Qiu Zhenyang must be very possessive, right?”

Ling Mu never discussed these matters with others, and was frightened by Guan Tang!

How can anyone say such things? Embarrassing!

In fact, omegas occasionally talk about each other’s sex life. After all, everyone is an adult, and many omegas have already passed the estrus period with their alphas, so such shameful things will also be discussed.

Ling Mu, who was still in shock, heard Guan Tang go on to say: “Qiu Zhenyang is a top-level alpha. Usually, even if his pheromone doesn’t leak, the pressure is still overwhelming! As his omega, you must be happy to death. How frequently do you guys do that kind of thing generally?”

Red-faced, how can Ling Mu dare answer such a question! He could only clench his cheeks and bow his head without speaking. God knows how red his face is now!

Seeing this, Qiu Zhenyang, who had been watching Ling Mu, quickly sat down and raised his eyebrows at Guan Tang. “Are you flirting with him? Look at how red his face is. It should be enough to fry eggs?”

Guan Tang burst out laughing, while Ling Mu raised his head and glared at Qiu Zhenyang. “Did you take the wrong medicine, go back to your own table.”

“Don’t, I just came here. You’re driving me away so soon? By the way, Xiao Mumu, do you have a test on Tuesday? Although the competition is also very important, your grades can’t fall behind. You should focus on your studies first. Focus on reviewing the class material, and there’s no need to attend the club training.” Qiu Zhenyang smiled and said something that drove Ling Mu crazy.

He immediately frowned: “Why don’t you let me train? It’s just a small test, not a big test, and the questions are quite simple, so there won’t be any problems.”

Guan Tang, the pig teammate on the side, didn’t give any face. “No way. Because the test is related to our final grades, the test for our O5 class is very difficult!”

Ling Mu was almost out of breath and did an eye roll in anger.

In addition to being a little stupid in terms of emotions, this Guan Tang usually looks quite clever, why is he stupid like a pig at this time!

After hearing this, Qiu Zhenyang nodded thoughtfully, and looked meaningfully at Ling Mu. “It’s directly related to the final grades? Ah, that’s good, I’ll confiscate the game cabin in your room, Ling Mu, and will wait until you’re done the test to move it back.”

Ling Mu: “…” He stabbed Guan Tang a few times.

After realizing it, Guan Tang covered his mouth and flashed to the table next door embarrassingly.

Even after everyone dispersed on the way back, Ling Mu was still unhappy. Since he started playing “Machine Wars”, he has played a few games almost every day. Now that Qiu Zhenyang doesn’t let him play, and will even confiscate the game cabin, Ling Mu is angry!

“Are you still sulking?” Qiu Zhenyang circled around him, teasing him from time to time. “It’s only a few days until the exam, so just hold off for this period of time. I’ll play it for you until you finish the exam, okay?”

Irritated by him buzzing in a circle, Ling Mu slapped his arms in an attempt to slap him away.

“Xiao Mumu, games are just a way of enjoying life, we can’t be addicted to them and cannot extricate ourselves! Studying is the most important thing, so you should take the exam first~” Qiu Zhenyang insisted on reasoning with him, trying to make Ling Mu happy.

Ling Mu suddenly stopped. After being silent for a while, he said solemnly, “I want to be a professional player.”

His expression was so serious that Qiu Zhenyang felt his determination.

“I know,” He put his hands on Ling Mu’s shoulders, and Qiu Zhenyang’s thumbs gently rubbed his shoulders. “Why do you think I’m going to apply for the competition to be legalized? It’s because I want to create a platform for you in a place you like.”

Ling Mu pursed his lips, his heart feeling sweet and sour.

“But now the premise is that we can’t fall behind in learning. This is our task as a student, so you should study hard.”

Qiu Zhenyang knows that many of Ling Mu’s ideas are slightly off because he lacked the correct parental guidance. Adjutant Ling left too early, and Dong Qiulan is not a good mother. Ling Mu is already very good, but throwing himself into something he likes still needs to be corrected.

He also enjoys the process of leading Ling Mu, because he is also taking Ling Mu into his own world in the process of guiding.

They have to walk a long, long way together, and he will always be by his side.

“So study hard first, and then practice. You can rest assured that with me, you can definitely become a professional player.” Qiu Zhenyang’s eyes were very sure; this was his promise to Ling Mu.

Being taught so carefully, Ling Mu felt as if he had become a child.

But his mood is indeed much better now, and he finally said with relief: “Okay, then don’t take my game cabin, I won’t touch it.”

“Okay, let’s go~” Qiu Zhenyang happily dragged Ling Mu away. His obedient wife is so cute, life is so beautiful!
