The King's Avatar Episode 19 Recap
> The King's Avatar Recap
Ye Xiu went to the mall and bought Chen Guo a scarf. Chen Guo was very happy to receive it and quickly asked Ye Xiu if it was expensive. Unexpectedly, Ye Xiu said the scarf was a New Year's special, twenty yuan for three, and he also bought one each for Su Mucheng and Tang Rou. The celebration was about to begin, but Sun Xiang hadn't arrived yet.
Tao Xuan looked for him everywhere and found that Sun Xiang was still playing the game. He looked closely and saw Sun Xiang was practicing the Dragon Raising Head diligently. Tao Xuan sneered. He didn't understand why Sun Xiang was so fixated on this skill. Sun Xiang said he must use the Dragon Raising Head to defeat Ye Xiu and tell everyone that he was the real Leaf of Autumn.
Seeing that Sun Xiang still wouldn't go to the venue, Tao Xuan's face fell. He reached out and pulled out his account card, telling Sun Xiang that whether he could become Leaf of Autumn depended not on himself, but on Tao Xuan. But Sun Xiang was unmoved by these words. Tao Xuan could only give him a final ultimatum, telling him to arrive at the venue within twenty minutes.
The Spring Festival holiday ended, and Xing Xin internet cafe was also about to reopen. Su Mucheng was also returning to the team for the new year's training. She said to Ye Xiu that her contract still had one year until it expired, and asked if there would still be a place for her in the Xing Xin team by then. Ye Xiu playfully replied to her that it would depend on whether her skill level had declined by then.
The two joked with each other for a while. Before Su Mucheng left, as if she suddenly remembered something, she told Ye Xiu that his apprentice was coming back. The members of Jia Shi's second team were holding ranked duels. Seeing this, Chen Yehui pointed out that there was a rule in the team that second-team members were not allowed to set up ranked matches privately.
But the Vice-Captain said that when Ye Xiu was here, he felt that the annual ranked match was too far apart, so he agreed that team members could duel privately. The Vice-Captain proposed that they disband, but Chen Yehui stopped him with interest. Since Qiu Fei left, Li Rui had firmly held the first position in the second team. Now, facing the opponent before him, he was equally dismissive and defeated him effortlessly.
Seeing Li Rui's arrogant attitude, his opponent said that if Li Rui hadn't lost Qiu Fei's return materials, he would at most be ranked second. Li Rui was furious upon hearing this. Just as a conflict was about to break out between the two sides, Qiu Fei, whom they were talking about, returned to Jia Shi. Qiu Fei was also Ye Xiu's apprentice.
If he hadn't gone abroad for training back then, Ye Xiu would surely have trained him to be his successor. Li Rui was very nervous when he saw Qiu Fei return to the country after completing his training early and asked him why he came back ahead of time. Seeing Li Rui's previous arrogance, Qiu Fei proposed a duel with him.
Although Li Rui was overbearing in front of the other team members, he was still inferior in skill when facing Qiu Fei. Qiu Fei used a Shadow Cloak Step and defeated Li Rui. Although Li Rui was unconvinced in his heart, he dared not speak his anger. Chen Yehui stopped Qiu Fei, who was about to leave, and mocked him as a traitor, trying to sow discord between Qiu Fei and Ye Xiu.
He also said that as long as Qiu Fei was still Ye Xiu's apprentice, it would be impossible for him to return to the first team. Chen Yehui proposed to Qiu Fei that as long as he could help prevent Ye Xiu from returning to the Alliance, he could recommend Qiu Fei to the boss. However, Qiu Fei still ignored him, pulled his suitcase, and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Chen Yehui added that Ye Xiu hadn't considered Qiu Fei at all when he left the team, and told Qiu Fei to think about it carefully himself. Although Qiu Fei appeared unmoved when facing Chen Yehui, his heart was actually filled with confusion and resentment over Ye Xiu's departure. He recalled when he first joined Jia Shi.
At that time, his parents at home were going through a divorce, his family didn't agree with him pursuing an esports career, and he also had a big conflict with his family. Qiu Fei entered Jia Shi and found Ye Xiu teaming up with a few chefs to play the game, so he mistook Ye Xiu for the restaurant manager and said he wanted to take him to play Glory.
He also told Ye Xiu that he would be the future captain of Jia Shi and asked Ye Xiu to fawn over him more. Ye Xiu found his words very amusing and told him to say these things when he had the skill. Qiu Fei couldn't help but overlay these words with what his family had said and asked Ye Xiu if he also thought he was useless.
But Ye Xiu told him to practice his skills well and come back to him after he had a ranking on the leaderboards. Qiu Fei came to the second team's training room and immediately wanted to challenge the strongest person. Seeing that no one paid attention to him, he looked at the second team's training results list and decided to challenge the top-ranked Chen Yehui to a duel.
After Qiu Fei won against Chen Yehui, he went to Ye Xiu to show off, but Ye Xiu saw through him, realizing that he had approached him back then because he wanted to secretly learn from him. Qiu Fei denied it repeatedly, but what he thought in his heart was inconsistent with what he said. He still couldn't resist asking Ye Xiu for guidance on the Shadow Cloak Step skill. But Ye Xiu refused him.
Even though Qiu Fei offered many conditions in exchange, Ye Xiu gave no commitment and left directly. A few days later, Ye Xiu was about to inspect the second team, and the team members were actively preparing for the duels. But Qiu Fei was overwhelmed by phone calls from home and could only have Chen Yehui register for him first.
He told his family that within two years, he would definitely achieve results in Jia Shi and win the championship in the Glory Alliance. After hanging up the phone, Qiu Fei hurried to the competition venue and was informed that he would be facing Chen Yehui. As he sat down in his seat, Qiu Fei was surprised to discover that the person he had always thought was the restaurant manager was actually the captain of Jia Shi, Ye Xiu!
Ye Xiu had unintentionally overheard Qiu Fei's phone call just now and also sighed at the young man's ambition. He helped Qiu Fei insert his account card and said 'go for it' to Qiu Fei. Qiu Fei used the Dragon Rises to the Sky as soon as the match began. His fighting style was very fierce, somewhat resembling Ye Xiu's style, and he quickly defeated Chen Yehui. Qiu Fei, who won the match, was very happy.
As he walked off the stage, he was told that he was suspected of using an external cheat program and that his account card needed to be checked. Given Qiu Fei's pride, he disdained using cheating software. However, the inspection results were beyond his expectation; it actually showed that he had cheated. Qiu Fei thought for a moment and realized that Chen Yehui must have tampered with his account card when registering for him.
He was immediately furious and rushed forward to chase Chen Yehui. Seeing this, everyone quickly tried to stop them. Ye Xiu took Qiu Fei to a secluded place, wanting him to calm down. But Qiu Fei was still very agitated and even declared that he would make sure Chen Yehui could never play Glory again.
Ye Xiu held him down with his hand and told him that Glory was not a tool for his revenge and that he only wanted to know why he played Glory. Qiu Fei replied that he played to win for everyone to see. Ye Xiu told him that if it was just to win for others to see, then he was not worthy of playing Glory at all.
After saying this, he told Qiu Fei to leave Jia Shi on his own. At this moment, Qiu Fei was too shocked to remain calm. He retorted to Ye Xiu, asking what else he could do. Ye Xiu said to him, "Either give up, or continue." But Qiu Fei felt he had no choice and asked what reason he had to continue. But Ye Xiu firmly told him, "Because I am your captain."
Recalling these events, Qiu Fei understood even less why Ye Xiu was now treating Glory as a tool for revenge. It seemed as if he had finally made up his mind. He found Chen Yehui and asked where Ye Xiu was. Ye Xiu encountered Qiu Fei, who had come to challenge him in Glory.
He recognized that the character in front of him was his former apprentice and didn't forget to guide and comment on Qiu Fei's operations during the battle. However, Qiu Fei, who was convinced that Ye Xiu had betrayed Jia Shi, couldn't listen at all at this time. He questioned Ye Xiu why he had betrayed Jia Shi, but Ye Xiu did not answer.
Chen Yehui was still trying to provoke them from the side, but Qiu Fei told him that it was a matter between him and Ye Xiu and that he had no right to interfere. Qiu Fei heard Chen Yehui's words and came to Xing Xin internet cafe to find Ye Xiu, but Ye Xiu completely ignored him.
He kept asking Ye Xiu about things he had said before, while Ye Xiu was busy with internet cafe matters and had no time to pay attention to him. Having finally finished his work, Ye Xiu invited Qiu Fei to play pool and used the game to indicate the future directions the two of them would take. Qiu Fei asked Ye Xiu why he was working as an internet cafe manager in such a small place.
Ye Xiu replied to him, "Because there is a group of people who like Glory here. Glory is their world." Qiu Fei still didn't understand what this had to do with Ye Xiu. Ye Xiu told him, "We were all once part of these people."
