Although the Second Module has not been fully unlocked yet, this does not prevent Lin Feng from preparing a usable star player template for it in advance.
The lottery interface is very simple, consisting of nothing more than a Vertical Turntable.
After silently chanting "start" in his heart, the system's lottery wheel begins to spin rapidly.
A moment later, the pointer stops on a Black Player with buck teeth and a wide grin.
[Congratulations to the host for drawing a 'Football Genie' Ronaldinho Module Fragment (1/3)!]
Hmm?
I actually drew Ronaldinho's Module!?
Lin Feng is completely stunned!
Ronaldinho's talent is so high that it is even above Kaka.
Anyone who has watched him play will surely be deeply impressed by Ronaldinho's imaginative creativity and his incomparable, aesthetically pleasing football skills.
He is the Elf on the Pitch, and his feet can always produce beautiful football that is pleasing to the eye and leaves people in awe.
It is as if he is not playing football, but dancing!
Just how good is Ronaldinho?
Even the players he dribbles past do not feel angry or sad as their first reaction; instead, they sigh that the guy on the other side is too strong and they simply cannot stop him!
During those years of his Peak Period, he was the Number One Player in the Football World!
Unfortunately, like many South American players, Ronaldinho fell too early after achieving fame and success due to his Lack of Discipline and Excessive Indulgence, which greatly shortened his Peak Period.
If his Peak Period could have been extended for a few more years, his achievements in the Football World would surely have been even greater.
"It's a pity it's only a fragment; I still need to collect the other two fragments to piece together a Complete Module."
Lin Feng feels both happy and regretful in his heart; it is naturally worth being happy about drawing something good.
But once he thinks about the fact that such a good thing cannot be used immediately, the joy in his heart is dampened quite a bit.
[The host can fuse the drawn module fragment with the module currently in use to obtain some of the abilities from the module fragment.]
The system provides a thoughtful hint, but Lin Feng is currently reluctant to just fuse such a precious module.
Ronaldinho possesses historical or even quasi-King of football level talent; fusing it just like this would be a bit too wasteful.
Moreover, it is difficult to determine what ability would be extracted from the Ronaldinho Module Fragment after fusion; if he were to accidentally draw a relatively Mediocre Ability, it would be a huge loss.
Of course, if he could actively choose the ability when fusing the fragments, he might give it a try.
After the lottery ended, Lin Feng was planning to exit the system, but he unexpectedly discovered that a new item that had never appeared before had been added to the system—Honor Points.
[Honor Points: The various honors the host obtains in matches will be converted into corresponding Honor Points based on the level of the competition.]
Curiously checking his Honor Points, he finds that he currently has a total of 5 points.
He assumes these 5 points were all earned during this Youth World Cup!
As his eyes scan, a virtual Honor Exhibition Room appears in his field of vision.
Inside, three trophies are quietly displayed: the Youth World Cup Championship Trophy, the Youth World Cup Golden Ball, and the Youth World Cup Golden Boot.
When his gaze lands on these trophies, detailed introductions for them automatically pop up on the side.
This includes the competition events corresponding to these trophies, the time the trophies were obtained, and the amount of Honor Points corresponding to each trophy.
"The Golden Ball and the Golden Boot are each worth 2 points, but the Championship Trophy only brings 1 point. It seems that Individual Honors earn more Honor Points, while Team Honors earn fewer."
After a quick glance, Lin Feng has a rough idea.
"I just don't know what these Honor Points can be used for; surely they aren't just for display as honors?"
The system does not provide an explanation for his question; he assumes the trigger conditions have not been met yet!
Lin Feng does not mind. After exiting the system, he books a flight ticket and packs his luggage, preparing to head home.
Just as Lin Feng sets off for home, the curtain on the European Transfer Market has also been completely lifted.
Because next year is a World Cup Year, there are many transactions among major clubs this summer, involving many Big Name Players. It can be described as exceptionally lively, with transfer rumors about various Top Star Players flying everywhere.
Dissatisfied with Arsenal's lack of ambition for championships and the team's insistence on implementing a 30+ player policy, Arsenal Midfield Core Vieira chooses to head to the Apennine Peninsula, joining The Old Lady Juventus for a fee of 20 million Euro.
Vieira has just turned 29 and is in his Golden Period.
His departure is undoubtedly a huge blow to Arsenal.
However, it is unclear what Wenger is thinking; he is basically in a state of letting Vieira's transfer happen without making an all-out effort to keep him, and there are even rumors that Vieira was purged by Arsenal.
Although Fabregas already showed his talent last season, he is not the same type of player as Vieira.
Especially in terms of defense, Fabregas's style is relatively soft, and his Physical Confrontation ability and running ability are far inferior to Vieira's.
He is clearly unable to replace the tough-defending and high-coverage Vieira.
This leaves the outside world full of doubts about Arsenal's strength for the new season, especially regarding their Midfield Strength.
If the split between Vieira and Arsenal could be considered a Peaceful Breakup, then the transfer of Inter Milan's general Vieri to their City Rival AC Milan is clearly a Blatant Betrayal.
This Forward, who once cost Inter Milan a staggering 50 million dollars in transfer fees, joined AC Milan on a free transfer.
His betrayal left Inter Milan Fans feeling exceptionally furious.
Many fans rushed to the residence of Vieri, burning his jerseys, shouting slogans of abuse, and even throwing stones at his house.
However, neither the senior management of the Inter Milan club nor the Player himself made any public statements regarding this transfer.
Clearly, this transfer was not as simple as it seemed.
Back when they first poached Vieri, Moratti had offered him an astronomical Annual Salary.
According to the contract between the two parties, in his final year, Vieri was set to receive 13 million Euro in bonuses and wages from Inter Milan, not including the additional 13.6 million Euro in taxes that Inter Milan would have to pay on his behalf.
In other words, if he did not leave, Inter Milan would have to spend an extra 26.6 million Euro on him over the coming year.
Even for a wealthy club like Inter Milan, this was a heavy financial burden.
Against the backdrop of Moratti being determined to inject fresh blood into the team, a Player like Vieri—who was entering the twilight of his career, whose fame far outweighed his actual ability, and who was incredibly expensive—was clearly not worth keeping by force.
Therefore, letting him leave was the best possible outcome for Inter Milan.
As for the Player himself, having gradually been relegated to a substitute role at Inter Milan and unable to secure consistent playing time, choosing to take a severance package, terminate his contract, and try his luck at another team was also the optimal choice.
Thus, this defection was actually a win-win result for both sides, which is why neither party made a public statement.
But Moratti clearly underestimated the capabilities of the Italian reporters.
The more the two sides kept things under wraps, the more interested the reporters became in the inside story of this transfer.
With the relentless digging of the reporters, these inside details were soon unearthed.
Moreover, while investigating the inside story of this transfer, the reporters also discovered another very interesting matter.
Soon, news that Inter Milan intended to spend a massive sum to snap up a 17-year-old genius Player spread like wildfire throughout Italian Football.
Once this news was reported, it aroused the curiosity of the entire Italian Football world:
Who exactly had Inter Milan set their sights on?
The answer was revealed quickly; the one being eyed by Inter Milan was none other than the Chinese Youngster Lin Feng, who had just led his team to victory in the Youth World Cup not long ago.
As soon as the news broke, the Italian Football world was in an uproar.
