The King's Avatar Episode 28 Recap
> The King's Avatar Recap
Mo Fan was unwilling to always be at the bottom of the training rankings. He repeatedly tested his damage output in the game, not understanding what the problem was. Just then, a group of people came looking for him, claiming that Mo Fan had just killed their brother, and they were there to avenge him. Mo Fan started fighting them, but suddenly noticed that his teammates were watching from the side.
He originally thought Ye Xiu and the others were there to support him, but Ye Xiu said they were just watching for fun, and even occasionally commented on the battle situation. Seeing their detached attitude, Mo Fan thought they were there to pick up equipment, so he resolved to break out on his own. Mo Fan was still outnumbered and suppressed, unable to break free.
Just then, Ye Xiu opened fire and saved Mo Fan, saying that the equipment on Mo Fan belonged to the team, and if it was dropped, it would be a loss for the team. With that, he led everyone into the fight. Ye Xiu told Mo Fan to protect An Wenyi to save the team's most expensive equipment. Mo Fan also felt that this trouble was caused by himself and that he should be responsible.
Just as Mo Fan was going to chase after the weapon, he was blocked by a Launcher on the side. He quickly dodged, grateful that he hadn't repeated his mistake from the match. At the same time, Ye Xiu also guided Bao Rongxing's movement to indirectly remind Mo Fan what the correct movement should be like. Mo Fan listened to Ye Xiu's words, observed carefully, and found that he also had his own position.
Mo Fan retrieved the weapon and saw the Launcher who had attacked him earlier, so he planned to go up and fight her. Just then, Su Mucheng stood up from the computer across from Mo Fan and stopped him. Su Mucheng told Mo Fan that she was the one who had killed him in the match, and also Feng Shu Yan Xu who had chased him just now.
Upon hearing this, Mo Fan immediately wanted to settle the score with Su Mucheng. Everything that had just happened was actually arranged by Ye Xiu, including the people who came to pick a fight with Mo Fan; they were also "extras" hired by Ye Xiu. Su Mucheng saw that everyone in Xing Xin had been cooped up training for a long time, so she suggested they go out for some fresh air and play some basketball.
Luo Ji was explaining tactics to everyone, but Mo Fan was distracted and secretly slipped away when no one was paying attention. Mo Fan, upon hearing Su Mucheng's suggestion, really wanted to play basketball. He changed into his basketball clothes, hugged a basketball, and swayed it in front of everyone. But everyone ignored him and told him not to block the screen. Mo Fan could only turn off the screen and told everyone he had booked the basketball court.
Upon hearing this, everyone got up one after another, ready to head to the court. At the basketball court, Luo Ji analyzed that the winning rate would be higher if they followed Ye Xiu, so everyone chose Ye Xiu's group. No one followed Mo Fan. Just then, Bao Rongxing walked in with a basketball and said shooting was not difficult. With that, he threw the ball towards the hoop.
Mo Fan was worried that the ball would hit Tang Rou, so he quickly intercepted the ball mid-air and steadily shot it into the hoop. Seeing this, everyone immediately switched to Mo Fan's group. Ye Xiu saw that there was no one left on his side and grabbed Luo Ji, who was a beat slower. Wei Chen, wearing slippers, also joined Ye Xiu's group. As soon as the game started, Wei Chen, wearing slippers, fell flat on his face.
Only Ye Xiu and Luo Ji were left moving around the court. Unexpectedly, even though Ye Xiu's side had fewer people, their strength was not to be underestimated. They kept scoring, easily pulling the score between the two sides to 15-0. The gap between the two sides continued to widen. Although Mo Fan hadn't scored yet, he didn't get discouraged and encouraged Bao Rongxing and An Wenyi. He finally deeply ingrained the concept of teamwork in his mind.
Thanks to teamwork, Mo Fan's team gradually got into a better rhythm and slowly closed the gap in the score. And this game would definitely make Xing Xin's teammates more deeply understand the meaning of teamwork. Ye Xiu and Xiao Shiqin met at a bar. The TV in the bar was broadcasting news about Team Thunderclap's continuous losses. Ye Xiu asked Xiao Shiqin how he felt about leaving his old club. Xiao Shiqin said Thunderclap was his starting point.
Ye Xiu said, "But Thunderclap is not Xiao Shiqin's end point." Hearing this, Xiao Shiqin asked in return what his end point was. Ye Xiu answered him, "Lifting the championship trophy." The two talked about Xiao Shiqin's transfer to Jia Shi. Ye Xiu pointed out that Jia Shi was the most ambitious team in the entire Alliance and the most likely to win the championship. Only Jia Shi could support Xiao Shiqin's end point.
Just as they were talking, the TV broadcast the news about the Challenger League groupings. Xing Xin and Jia Shi were not in the same group. Seeing this result, the two agreed to meet in the finals, and they both resolved to strive for the championship with their new identities. Su Mucheng met Ye Xiu at the internet cafe where they had discovered the Penrose Stairs. She said she wanted to give Ye Xiu a gift.
Opening the gift box, inside were ten brand new black masks. Su Mucheng told Ye Xiu that he could choose not to wear them. Ye Xiu let her know that Su Muqiu's map glitches could also have surprise easter eggs, and some glitches would always exist if not fixed. If Ye Xiu was willing to take that step, perhaps a different kind of easter egg reversal would appear.
While the two were chatting, Ye Xiu saw a scene of a happy family of passersby on the roadside and couldn't help but think of his grandfather. His grandfather was his first fan on his esports path. When Ye Xiu was at home, he often played video games with his grandfather. Although his grandfather's operations were actually performed by Ye Xiu, they were still very happy.
His grandfather strongly supported Ye Xiu participating in esports competitions and even covered for him with Ye Xiu's father. His grandfather was very proud of Ye Xiu, and Ye Xiu would report every stage of his competitions to his grandfather. His grandfather always asked Ye Xiu if he had found a place to live, actually wanting to see him again, because his grandfather's health was already at its limit at that time.
Thinking of these past events, Ye Xiu returned to the shop where he used to buy game CDs, but was told by the owner that they stopped selling game CDs three years ago. Ye Xiu couldn't help but feel a sense of melancholy. Seeing this, the owner asked him if he had just returned from out of town and was preparing to go home. Back then, after his grandfather passed away, Ye Xiu returned home.
But his father still hoped for him to return to a normal life and study abroad. Ye Xiu told his father about the promise he made with Su Muqiu to become professional players, but was met with his father's strong opposition. His father even told Ye Xiu that if he left that house, he should never come back, and that the house would have nothing to do with him.
The impetuous young Ye Xiu, upon hearing these words, left home in anger and hadn't returned since. Now, Ye Xiu returned home. He took out the key his grandfather had given him, wanting to open the door, but the lock at home had already been changed. So Ye Xiu gave up the idea of opening the door and sat down in front of it. While waiting, Ye Xiu unknowingly fell asleep.
When he woke up with a start, he found that the main door of the house had already been opened. He looked at the bright lights inside the house and finally made up his mind to step through the door. His father prepared a bowl of noodles for Ye Xiu, just like in the past.
Ye Xiu gathered his thoughts for a long time and said to his father, "Father once told me he didn't want me to have no way back when I regretted it. For all these years, I've wanted to tell you that I don't need that way back at all, because I have never regretted it." He told his father about forming a new team and invited him to watch his matches.
