Chapter 1777: Torture You

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Ruling Sword had spent 1.8 million dollars to sign Mu Qiu.

At that time, 1.8 million dollars was not a small number, but now, no one would object if Mu Qiu’s annual salary was 5 million. Considering the current market, there would even be people willing to sign him for 10 million a year.

As such, Mu Qiu became the only choice, but he immediately rejected them. Glory Capital’s representatives were confused. Mu Qiu didn’t seem like a stupid person, so why had he rejected their offer of an 18-million-dollar annual salary? It was ten times greater than his current salary.

Ten times!

Mu Qiu’s answer was simple. When he entered Ruling Sword, he didn’t want 1.8 million dollars. Instead, he asked for 1 million. If he was able to compete for them, then he was willing to take an even lesser amount.

However, it was Lu Li who felt that he was worth it, so he added another 800,000 to his contract.

At that time, he was moved to tears and swore utmost loyalty to Lu Li. It was because of this that he rejected the offer of 18 million. Money could not buy this level of trust.

Besides, the additional 800,000 was not all Lu Li had given him.

Any other club would have just kept him as a Healer. If that had happened, then there wouldn’t be a super Paladin who wielded the Greatsword of the Brotherhood. Glory Capital was not an exception.

News of this quickly travelled to Lu Li.

If he didn’t know that Mu Qiu would be able to succeed going down the Damage path and if he hadn’t given him the extra 800,000, then the Mu Qiu of today might have really transferred clubs.

In hindsight, he realised that his personality had a large influence on how he managed to succeed.

He wasn’t a particularly generous person, but he did not fail to take care of those who he cared about.

This was a wise ideal in life.

He was generous towards Azure Sea Breeze. In turn, he gained the number one Main Tank in Dawn as an ally. He was generous towards Remnant Dream, and in turn, he gained an incredibly lucky player as an ally. There were numerous others who he showed generosity to, despite his own situation in his earlier days.

If Lu Li wanted to do that same now, it might be easier. After all, he was the leader of two clubs, the owner of two Strongholds and the core of a three-club alliance. However, the loyalty that he would command this time would not compare to the undying and unwavering loyalty of Azure Sea Breeze and the rest.

Sharing is caring – Lu Li did this while he was poor and still gave and shared in his limited wealth.

If someone had billions upon billions to spend and only shared a piece of bread with other people, then he would be a scumbag.

Short-sighted people would always seek to have all the benefits in their hands. What they didn’t know, was that this was like holding sand – the tighter you grabbed, the more you would lose.

As everyone was preparing to watch the Finals, Gale Legion successfully defeated Drizzle Court.

Gaze consecutively defeated Water Fairy and another competitor, shutting down his hecklers. As to why he lost to Moonlight, not even he himself could explain it.

It was impossible for a player to be 100% consistent all the time. It was normal for players for drop their form.

There wasn’t much difference between the third and fourth place. It could be said that only the champion mattered. Other positions didn’t really have much significance.

For example, if Glory Capital was on the decline and there was no sudden emergence of Ruling Sword, then the other clubs would have had a chance to claim the title the strongest club. However, Glory Capital was as strong as ever, and there was also Ruling Sword. As a result, the other clubs lost their chance at reaching the top.

There wasn’t a long wait for Glory Capital and Ruling Sword’s clash. As soon as the match between Gale Legion and Drizzle Court finished, it immediately transitioned into the Finals clash.

“The battle between Water Fairy and Sorrowless a few days ago led everyone to believe that Mages can definitely defeat Thieves. As a Thief myself, I feel that this conclusion is flawed. Therefore, I hope that Sorrowless can give the Thieves another chance. I shall represent the Thieves and propose a battle with Sorrowless. I hope that he will not reject me. In fact, it doesn’t even matter if he rejects me. I will be the one to fight in the first round.”

Lu Li, who was usually tight-lipped about his actions, was now immediately issuing a challenge to Sorrowless.

The reporters who were interviewing Lu Li were a little confused. What did this mean? Then, they realised that Lu Li was issuing a challenge to Sorrowless.

Lu Li’s words were not blunt and straight to the point. He used the debate between Thieves and Mages to mention this. He could have just said, “Sorrowless, get your ass out here and fight me!” It would have conveyed the same meaning.

“Are you confident in your abilities to be able to defeat Sorrowless?”

Lu Li bent down a little. After all, the reporter was a little short.

“Sorrowless is an opponent who deserves respect. No one can have 100% confidence in defeating him, but I am also quite confident in my own strength.”

“Oh! I know!” the little reporter exclaimed, eyes shining. “Is this because of the battle between Sorrowless and Water Fairy, where she lost to him? She’s your girlfriend, so now you’re going to avenge her on this stage! How romantic!”

“That’s not the case.” Lu Li denied. “Everyone’s fighting fairly, and there’s no bad blood between us. There’s also no such thing as revenge.”

“If that’s the case, then when do you guys plan to get married?”

Lu Li really wanted to throw this reporter out the window and yell for the next question.

However, this was a live-stream interview, so he had to answer it. He endured it and answered, “We don’t have plans to get married yet.”

“Are you just planning on playing around and not marry her?”

How did this person become a reporter? Was this person hired by Glory Capital to stir up trouble?

“Our relationship is great. We are dating seriously and we will definitely get married in the future.

However, it is not the time now.”

The little reporter wasn’t happy about Lu Li’s answer, but Lu Li didn’t want to give the reporter another chance to talk and quickly ended the interview.

If it wasn’t for wanting to publicly issue a challenge to Sorrowless and forcing him to fight, Lu Li would not have accepted an interview like this. Usually, it was other people who dealt with these reporters. After Lu Li left, Fat Monkey immediately jumped on, keen to answer questions.

Unfortunately, there weren’t many questions for him. They reporters could have asked him about his eagerness to have another showdown with Sorrowless, but Lu Li already issued his challenge.

Fat Monkey was also a single dog and didn’t have a girlfriend or anything close to it. There weren’t

even rumours of his love life, so there weren’t any interesting topics to ask about.

However, under the reporters’ fierce plea, Moonlight decided to step onto the podium and answer questions.

They were all asking about his battle with Gaze.

“Gaze is a strong opponent. We have known each for a long time and his strength is proven. As for what happened that they, I don’t know. I’m an outsider, so I don’t know. As for whether he would leave Gale Legion or not, anything could happen. However, from what I know, Gaze does not seem to have plans to jump ship.”

As a popular and beautiful player, March Rain was also someone who garnered the attention of reporters.

Most of her questions consisted of the gossip and rumours within Ruling Sword and her own personal romances. March Rain wasn’t someone who liked to gossip, so she could only repeat some pre-fabricated stories to appease the greater audience.

Of course, her love life was just as bland and empty. When they asked about her ideal type, March Rain just gave a simple and vague answer, which led to many people thinking that they matched it.

Glory Capital was different to Ruling Sword. Sorrowless was the last to be interviewed.

As such, the reporters over there had already gotten wind of the challenge that Lu Li issued Sorrowless.

During the interviews, Sorrowless was immediately asked, “We just received news that Ruling Sword’s leader, Lu Li, has issued a challenge to you. Are you going to accept his challenge?”

“What? I don’t know about it. Is this real?”

Sorrowless didn’t believe the reporters. He believed that all they wanted was to stir up trouble.

“It’s real! Lu Li really did challenge you just then!” The reporter even showed Sorrowless a video snippet of Lu Li saying that.

Now, Sorrowless believed Lu Li’s challenge.

“I haven’t been able to find you and now, you’re coming to me yourself. Just watch and see what I’m going to do to you,” he thought to himself.

He was quite satisfied with this, but he didn’t let it show when he spoke.

“The debate between Thieves and Mages have been going on for too long. I too, am curious about it. Since Brother Lu Li is willing to do this, I will of course not back down! Although our abilities cannot represent all Thieves and Mages, we will do our best on the battlefield and give everyone a fair chance to judge, as well as put on a show.”
