  The levels of blacksmiths were much tougher than normal fighting classes. This was because problems regarding skills like forging couldn’t be resolved through brute force. The fact that Choba was able to advance successfully proved that his skills were indeed genuine.

  Equipment was the main source of strength for most players so if Quan Zhen Sect wanted to be crowned champion, they needed good equipment. It was obvious how valuable a professional like Choba was.

  Choba showed his face but didn’t continue speaking. He should be busy at the forging workshop because after all, Choba’s forging skills were as important to him as Kung Fu was to Wang Yu.

  Wang Yu asked on the group, “Where do I head to register?”


  “PVP Arena!” Fearless replied as he walked in front, “Let’s go!”


  “You guys are following too?” Wang Yu asked.

  “Of course! The selection competition is related to the professional tournament so everyone must be there for the system to register the users. You can remember your identity number, right?” a slightly worried Fearless asked Wang Yu.

  Esports had already become a true sport so just like any regular athletes, esports athletes needed to be checked before the competition…… To ensure the fairness of the competition.

  Registering with your real identity was not a superfluous matter. When esports first started, there were incidents of people being paid to play for another player, resulting in a money-spinning issue. Therefore, this was a necessary step.

  “Of course I do!” A proud Wang Yu said, “Let’s go!”


  11 members of Quan Zhen Sect arrived at the PVP Arena very soon.

  Because the registration activities had been opened for three days already, the crowded period was over. Presently, only those who couldn’t find enough players and those still waiting for their leader like Quan Zhen Sect hadn’t registered.

  There were not many people registering so in a short time, Quan Zhen Sect players arrived at the front.

  The registrar was a white beard old man and when he saw Wang Yu and co., he smiled to ask, “May I ask how I can assist you?”


  “We want to register for the team selection competition!” Wang Yu answered immediately.

  The old fella extended his arm and said, “Please pay 1200 gold!”


  “So expensive?” Wang Yu was slightly taken aback as he turned back to look at the Quan Zhen Sect. However, everyone from the Quan Zhen Sect started looking elsewhere. It seemed like these b*stards already knew that they needed to pay…… No wonder none of them wanted to be the team leader. Damn it! Wang Yu had only been the team leader for a few days and was already paying a lot of money even without getting any benefits.

  1200 gold was enough to buy decent equipment. The system really knew how to make the players spend money. What grand occasion?! This was basically seizing the opportunity to rake in money.

  Seeing that Wang Yu was not happy, he continued faintly, “The system rules that the cost of registering each player is 100 gold. This is reasonable and fair!”


  100 gold was still an acceptable figure. After all, players capable of registering for such a competition would definitely be able to take out 100 gold. However, it was just a little heart-aching to take out 100 gold just like that. The actions of the company reminded Wang Yu of the shameless Fearless and co……

  “You guys don’t even want to take out 100 gold per person?! You bunch of cheapskates!” Wang Yu turned to everyone as he started scolded. However, he suddenly realised something.

  “Eh, that’s not right! Our team only has 11 players so we should be paying 1100 gold instead right?” Wang Yu asked.

  “Indeed!” The old man continued, “The limit is 12 players so don’t blame me just because you cannot find enough players!”


  “You!!” Wang Yu controlled his urge to punch this old man as he handed 1200 gold over.

  The old man took over the money as he said, “Team A Murder Of Crows’ registration successful! Team leader Iron Bull, please confirm.”


  “Confirm!” After Wang Yu clicked confirmed, the old man asked again, “Please assign a captain……”


  “Captain? What’s that?” Wang Yu asked.

  “The one in charge of the movements and competitions of team members,” the old man replied with broad and general terms.

  Fearless added, “They are usually done by the team leader or manager!”


  “Do we have a manager?” Wang Yu asked.

  “No……” Fearless shook his head, “Manager is usually a non-playing player and they are usually hired with money by big guilds. We don’t even have anyone paying us so why would we have a manager?”


  “But I’ve never participated in such things so I don’t know anything…… How do I be the captain?” Wang Yu asked.

  Wang Yu was a rather incompetent person in real life. When he was out on the streets, his aim was to not lose his way. Being a captain and a leader was indeed a little challenging for him.

  “I guess its the same as a teacher bringing a student to take an exam!” Fearless scratched his chin and said.

  “Why don’t you be the captain?” Wang Yu asked.

  Fearless shook his hand and said, “Don’t spout rubbish! I’ve never participated in esports competition and do you think all you b*stards will obey me if I’m the captain?”


  “I still have to find someone I will obey?” a confused Wang Yu asked.

  Fearless wiped his sweat and said, “Of course! What do you think?” Even a 181 IQ Fearless didn’t expect Wang Yu to treat this captain as merely a decorative title.

  “I know who we should find!” Wang Yu suddenly sent Mu Zixian a message, “Wifey, please come to the PVP Arena!”


  Mu Zixian’s shop was not too far away from the PVP Arena so she arrived just three minutes later.

  “Here!” Wang Yu waved his hands at Mu Zixian.

  Seeing that Mu Zixian came, everyone was shocked, “She is the captain you’re looking for?”


  “What? Why? Do you have an opinion?” Wang Yu asked.

  “No……” Everyone shook their heads together.

  Mu Zixian was once a customer service officer at the company so she was naturally familiar with such competitions. Moreover, this lady was really capable in real life. She would have no problem bringing over ten people out.

  More importantly, there weren’t many people in this huge world that Wang Yu would obey and Mu Zixian was one of the few people. There was no need to worry about whether the rest of the Quan Zhen Sect would obey Mu Zixian. This was because everyone obeyed Wang Yu.

  “What is this?” Mu Zixian questioned.

  “From today onwards, you are our captain!” Wang Yu smiled as he dragged Mu Zixian into their team and appointed her as the captain.

  “Please fill up these forms individually!” After appointing their captain, the old man continued.

  After everyone filled up their particulars, the registration of the team was completed.

  Team A Murder Of Crows successfully registered for <>’s first professional tournament, team selection competition. Team number 003318. <>’s seventh district. The team competition’s schedule would be sent into the players’ quest list 24 hours before the start. Please report to the designated public arena to participate in the competition.

  The venue for the team selection competition was the public arena. The public arena in each main city looked like the Colosseum in Rome where players could go and watch the other matches. It seemed like the shameless system wanted to collect entrance fee as well……

  However, Wang Yu and co.’s attention was not at how greedy the system was but the team’s serial number.

  6 digit serial number showed the number of people participating in this competition. Just one district consisted of over a million players. It seemed like it wouldn’t be easy to stand out among so many players.
