Although the members of the Quan Zhen Sect usually fear neither heaven nor earth, they are not ones to suffer losses without knowing it, which shows they have some self-awareness.
This group of guys sees themselves as a bunch of thoroughgoing bandits, and their usual activities consist of things that look quite despicable, like robbing bosses and snatching equipment.
In their gaming, everything is centered around having fun and being content with small gains. They have no lofty ambitions like dominating the world, let alone engaging in professional matches that seem very formal.
Not to mention peting on an international stage against those experts who they usually only see on screen.
So when they suddenly heard Fearless mention this matter, everyone inevitably felt nervous.
There's no helping it; this group just wants to live an ordinary life of killing, setting fires, and grabbing equipment. Little did they know that they would find themselves in such a situation.
"Can we just not go?"
Vainglory was the first to speak, breaking the silence.
The S-level league teams bear not just the simple burden of winning or losing but also the honor of their country. Once it escalates to national dignity, it's no small matter.
Vainglory is just a kid, and being suddenly entrusted with such a heavy responsibility, he naturally felt timid.
"I don't think that's possible." Wang Yu stroked his chin and said, "I've heard that the champions and runners-up of the professional league are teams that have qualified to pete. If we don't go, it's equivalent to forfeiting. I know you guys aren't afraid of losing face, but in this matter, losing without a fight means we lose not just the face of Quan Zhen Sect."
As an international event, the S-level league represents the country. If Quan Zhen Sect loses without a fight, it's basically the same as the country losing without a fight.
This kind of matter, while it may seem trivial, is definitely not small.
One must have some spirit in life. You can be knocked down, but you cannot be defeated. If you don't even have the courage to fight, that would be truly embarrassing.
For those shameless teams, at most, they would just bear the infamy; it wouldn't hurt them physically or be illegal. But for any normal citizen, who would want to be ridiculed?
These guys from Quan Zhen Sect are indeed shameless, but when it es to significant matters, they can still distinguish right from wrong.
"Exactly." Ming Du chimed in with a grin, "Frost Blade is still waiting to win the championship and bee a son-in-law, you know."
"Son-in-law my foot! Don't bring that up!" Frost Blade's face darkened as he shot a fierce glare at Ming Du.
Frost Blade is also someone who cares about face. The idea of being a son-in-law is merely a one-sided wish of Dream Girl; who would want to humiliate themselves by looking for others' approval when they have hands and feet?
Marriage is a matter that requires matching backgrounds. In situations like Wang Yu's, it's acceptable because, in most cases, the male side wouldn't despise the female's family. But for someone like Frost Blade, it's pletely different.
The so-called promise of a position upon winning the championship might be sincere, and for Frost Blade, it would just be a way for him to back down.
Even if they really won the championship, what of it? That position would be given to him as a favor by someone else, and the unequal relationship would never allow him to gain respect.
As the saying goes, "A noble person does not drink from a stolen well
