"Ah?!"
Upon hearing Fearless's words, Uranus was instantly dumbfounded.
The boss is personally playing the game? What kind of ridiculous operation is this? Can it be done like this?
Uranus had been in the esports scene for a long time, and while he had seen bosses play matches before, most of the time, these bosses were just playing for fun, stepping in to play a few rounds against weaker opponents.
But to see someone like Evil Rampage take charge and lead his team to victory while also being a key player was something Uranus had never witnessed before.
...
Those who can invest in esports clubs are not short on money, and someone like Evil Rampage is certainly not someone who can be pared to regular workers.
Evil Rampage not participating in matches would only mean missing out on the fun of facing top-tier opponents, while if Uranus didn't pete, he would lose a high-paying job.
Europeans have always enjoyed instant gratification and generally have no habit of saving money, and Uranus was no different. Although his salary was extremely high, his expenditures were equally high. If he really retired, he would definitely struggle to adapt to a simpler life.
"I know what you're thinking." Seeing Uranus's expression, Fearless smiled and said, "You're definitely not convinced, right?"
"Hmph! If it weren't for his position, how could you pare to Evil Rampage?" Uranus said, extremely unconvinced.
"Hehe!" Fearless replied calmly, "The moment you have that thought, you've already lost!"
At this point, Fearless pointed at Wang Yu and said, "Do you know who he is? He's the eldest son of our club's investor... In other words, Evil Rampage is just a younger brother in front of him."
"Forgive me for my rudeness!"
Wang Yu humbly clasped his fists towards Uranus.
"This..."
This time, Uranus was pletely crushed.
Well, other bosses playing with their teams are just filling numbers, letting a group of experts carry them; but these two brothers are actually getting their teammates to fill in while they lead...
This is simply unbelievable.
What surprised Uranus even more was that the person in front of him was actually Evil Rampage's biological brother. Thinking of his earlier scheming, Uranus felt his face flush with embarrassment.
While they were talking, Evil Rampage had already submitted the contracts of the two to the judging panel.
After verification, the contracts were confirmed to be valid.
Esports is a sacred petitive sport, and using such dirty means to achieve victory is absolutely unacceptable. The audience despises match-fixing the most, and after Uranus's actions were substantiated, no one could help him.
After discussions among the judges, Uranus was forcibly disqualified from the match and sentenced to a three-year ban. Evil Rampage, having reported the incident and not engaged in any match-fixing behavior, received no punishment and could return to the petition.
However, Evil Rampage did not return to the arena but instead announced his permanent retirement on the spot.
"Retiring? Why?"
Upon hearing Evil Rampage's decision, everyone looked puzzled.
Evil Rampage was strong and young, at the peak of his career. Why would he suddenly retire?
"I am Chinese!" Evil Rampage said passionately. "I participated in petitions to bring glory to my country, but encountering such a situation where someone wants to pay me to intentionally lose has left me deeply disappointed in the esports industry. Can national pride really be bought with money? Now that I've made this decision, even if I continue, there probably won't be a place for me in the esports scene anymore. I believe my teammates can do even better."
Having said that, Evil Rampage walked down from the podium, leaving behind an impressive silhouette.
As they watched Evil Rampage leave, the audience erupted into thunderous applause.
Can national pride really be bought with money? Exposing the dirty side of the esports scene was taught by Fearless, but this statement came from Evil Rampage's heartfelt feelings.
Although Evil Rampage was a businessman, as a martial artist, he had his own pride and bottom line. After all, even a despicable group like the Quan Zhen Sect wouldn't be solely driven by profit in such matters. Evil Rampage certainly wouldn't tolerate any impurity.
...
The departures of Uranus and Evil Rampage indeed surprised and disappointed everyone.
One side had lost its mander, and the other its star player, both teams were severely weakened, but the match still had to continue.
Under the system's arrangement, both teams were transported to the final battleground.
The third match took place on a map called "Terror Cemetery
