You must cheer up!

In the following few days, Su Zhe processed his visa while playing ranked matches with Nip and the other three whenever he had time.

The visa issue was relatively easy to handle. Nip was, after all, a listed company, and they could provide a certificate to facilitate his visa application.

The five-man ranked team also made Nip and the others increasingly aware of Su Zhe's terrifying prowess.

Compared to the Su Zhe they encountered on the Perfect World Platform, k0nfig and es3tag clearly felt that his marksmanship had reached a new level, and his in-game experience had become much more seasoned.

This speed of improvement left the two of them astounded.

Of course, the most outrageous thing was Su Zhe's incredible flick shots, which often helped the team quickly open up the situation, making Nip and the other three play very comfortably in matches.

Even headtr1ck, the youngest sniper on the team, admitted that his reaction time was inferior to Su Zhe's, saying it would be a waste not to use the Big Sniper with such reflexes.

Keep in mind that Su Zhe was playing with over 100 ping!

If they had to play with such high ping, they would probably be so angry they'd want to smash their computers, let alone play well in a match.

As the tryout date drew closer, Su Zhe finally received his visa, and his leave request was even simpler.

Using the excuse that "his family was taking him to Sweden to treat his Depression," and presenting his round-trip flight tickets.

This time, the young counselor didn't make things difficult for him at all and immediately approved his leave for over a week.

Around 8 PM, Su Zhe, unusually, did not stream today. Fat Brother and Xiao Guang went to a hot pot restaurant to see Su Zhe off on his trip to Sweden.

"No more words needed, I hope you have a smooth journey tomorrow." After speaking, Fat Brother directly finished the beer in his glass.

Su Zhe also downed his juice, as he had to leave for the airport early the next morning, and drinking alcohol could lead to mistakes.

"I still have to thank you, Fat Brother. Otherwise, my improvement wouldn't be this fast now," Su Zhe said with a smile, recalling his experiences over the past few months.

"What are you thanking me for?" Fat Brother shook his head and chuckled. "At most, I'm Gold S now. How much help can I be to your improvement?"

"If I were to have a solo match with you now, you'd probably smash my head in."

Su Zhe explained, "If it weren't for you, I would have struggled to even reach the S Division. I probably wouldn't have met Nip and the others on Perfect World, and I wouldn't have this opportunity now..."

This wasn't flattery. During the stage when he needed to build a foundation the most, Fat Brother, who liked to lecture, helped him avoid many detours.

Otherwise, he would have wasted a lot of time during the phase of climbing from A+ to S. At that time, Fat Brother would help him correct the mistakes he inadvertently made in matches whenever he had free time.

Fat Brother picked up a slice of lamb from the hot pot base and smiled, "What I did is nothing. Even if I didn't teach you, with your Talent, you would have gradually figured it out. It would just be a matter of time."

Su Zhe smiled and shook his head. What he lacked the most was precisely the time that ordinary college students didn't care about.

He turned to look at Xiao Guang, who was eating with his head down, and asked curiously, "Did you forget to eat lunch?"

Hearing this, Xiao Guang put down his chopsticks and sighed, "No, I just feel like things are changing too fast, and I don't know what to say. If you pass the tryout, will you have to take a leave of absence to focus on playing professionally?"

Su Zhe nodded, "Yeah."

As long as he could get a ticket to a professional team, all that was left was to work hard to improve himself.

Xiao Guang, who was a bit sentimental, felt an inexplicable sourness in his heart when he thought that he might not see his good buddies, with whom he had spent so much time, for a long time.

"I suddenly feel like it would be pretty good if you didn't go pro. The three of us could at least stream together for another two or three years, happily..."

"What are you talking about!" Fat Brother slapped Xiao Guang, "Going pro is a good thing! Streaming is just a temporary trend. When the trend dies down, are you going to let Xiao Zhe keep messing around with us?"

"I know, I'm just saying..." Xiao Guang didn't continue. He was afraid his voice would choke.

Su Zhe patted Xiao Guang's back to comfort him, "It's okay. No matter how this tryout goes, I'm going back to school. Besides, I heard professional teams have off-seasons. Even if I end up at Nip, I'll come back to see you guys often."

"Right." Fat Brother suddenly thought of something and signaled Xiao Guang before taking out his phone.

While Su Zhe was still wondering what the two were doing, his phone showed notifications for two new messages.

He picked up his phone and saw that they were transferring money to him.

Su Zhe asked in confusion, "What are you two doing?"

Fat Brother said indifferently, "This is your share of the streaming revenue recently. I heard the cost of living over there is very high, and you might have a lot of expenses when you go to Europe. We don't spend much money at school anyway."

Upon hearing this, Su Zhe immediately intended to return the money: "It's more than enough! I've checked the guides, and the Nip club even reimbursed my round-trip airfare since they know I'm flying from China."

Xiao Guang, beside him, excitedly snatched the phone from Su Zhe's hand and quickly tapped to accept the transfer.

"Just in case! Take it. Consider it a loan from us. Just don't forget us brothers when you make it big..."

Su Zhe nodded and didn't refuse anymore, planning to repay the money with interest once he was settled.

He also picked up his chopsticks and started eating, no longer speaking. Although they had only spent a few months together, he would never forget this friendship in his lifetime.

They ate for a full two hours. Except for Su Zhe, the other two drank quite a bit.

He helped them, staggering, back to the dormitory.

Halfway there, Xiao Guang couldn't help but howl, "Zhe! You have to do your best! You have to do your best!"

In the meeting room of the Nip Esports Club's CSGO division.

THREAT was in a very bad mood. Someone was about to come for a main team tryout, and he, as the team manager, was completely unaware. And it was a rookie with no competitive experience.

"Give me an explanation," he said, scanning the team members, his voice calm.

"I"

K0nfig was about to speak when es3tag, standing beside him, stopped him. "Let me say it."

He looked at THREAT and said, "This was my idea. Although he's a complete rookie, the Talent he's shown is very exciting, so I made the decision on my own."

THREAT glanced at him. "Even though you're the team's Captain, don't forget you're only filling in temporarily. What right do you have to make decisions for the club?"

Es3tag was also a bit indignant, his tone becoming agitated. "Do you think I wanted to make a decision on my own? If the team hadn't been so slow to recruit new players, I wouldn't bother with these things!"

"Since the club isn't willing to put energy into the CSGO division, what's wrong with us finding new players ourselves?"

THREAT was left somewhat speechless by es3tag's words.

He fiddled with the lighter in his hand and, after a few minutes of thought, found a way to save face.

"We'll let this slide, but if there's a next time, I agree to you contacting other clubs privately."

With that, he lost interest in staying any longer. As he got up to leave, he dropped a parting remark: "I want to personally review the results of this Tryout. If he doesn't pass, don't blame me for refusing."

I forgot to set the timed release for watching the match. Starting tomorrow, I'll add more updates.
