Chapter 24: The Career Path

With a poof, Qin Qing covered her mouth and laughed.

The person who interrupted the boy's singing was naturally Ning Pei, but Qin Qing didn't expect Ning Pei to interrupt the other party in such a way.

The boy who was interrupted also looked confused, what's the situation? How to get to the library? Are you serious? Less than 100 meters to the left of Nima, can't you see such a large library?

"What are you doing!" The boy finally reacted and asked Ning Pei very unhappily.

"Just ask, how to get to the library, I'm a freshman here, and I'm not familiar with school." Ning Pei looked at the other party calmly and said.

"You did it on purpose!" The boy yelled at Ning Pei.

"Nope."

"There are so many people around, why do you have to ask me, don't you see that I'm busy?"

"Well, because you're playing the guitar, it makes me feel very kind, so I'm up to you."

β€œ......”

The boy was also drunk when he watched Ning Pei talk nonsense seriously, and Ning Pei's words also attracted laughter from the people around him, which made the boy feel that he had lost face even more, especially in front of his goddess.

"What do you mean, deliberately finding fault!"

The boy clenched his fists, and several friends with him also surrounded him, and there was a posture of moving if he didn't agree with him.

Ning Pei's expression remained unchanged, and he spread his hand, "I don't mean that, don't get me wrong, I also like to play the guitar myself, and he feels very kind when I see you playing the guitar, so I came to ask you, I'm really sorry to disturb you." ”

"Ning Pei, let's go."

Qin Qing on the side saw that the two sides were about to clash, and hurriedly stepped forward to take Ning Pei away.

It's okay that Qin Qing didn't speak, but when she opened her mouth, the boy saw that Qin Qing actually knew this guy, and the goddess still had the intention of defending the other party.

It's unbearable!

"Say I'm sorry and that's it!" The boys began to be unrelenting.

"And what else do you want?" Qin Qing finally cooled down and looked at the boy with a frown.

The boy's heart is broken, and he doesn't dare to be rude to his goddess.

"Well, then he said he likes to play the guitar, let him play one and give it a try." The boy said weakly, and the friends who came with him hurriedly helped him when they saw this.

"Yes, yes, let him play one, if he can't, then he is deliberately trying to make trouble!"

Qin Qing took a deep breath and was about to say something when she was stopped by Ning Pei.

"Okay, then I'll play one." Ning Pei stepped forward, stretched out his hand to the boy, and motioned for the other party to give him the guitar.

Qin Qing was also stunned, she didn't expect Ning Pei to really know how to play, she originally thought that he was just a reason to make things up casually.

The boy sneered and handed the guitar in his hand to Ning Pei, he himself is a master of the school's guitar club, otherwise he would not have the confidence to confess to the goddess with a guitar in front of so many people.

It's okay, when he finishes playing, the goddess will know the gap between me and him, the boy thought proudly in his heart.

Ning Pei took the guitar, swept the strings a few times, stood still, glanced up at Qin Qing, smiled slightly, and started his performance.

"Wow, wow." A melodious melody came out.

The crowd of onlookers was originally in the mood of watching the excitement, but after listening to Ning Pei play for a few seconds, they all looked a little surprised-it seemed to be very good.

"It's the city in the sky!"

Someone in the crowd shouted out the tune that Ning Pei was playingβ€”the city in the sky.

This is a very classic song, there are many versions of the instrument, and Ning Pei is playing the guitar version of 'Castle in the Sky' at this time.

I have to say that many things are afraid of comparison. The boy's previous playing and singing were originally quite good, but when compared with Ning Pei's performance, it suddenly seemed unsatisfactory. The boy was also pale at this time, he just wanted to let the goddess know how big the gap between the two was, and now the gap is really out, but unfortunately the difference is himself......

There are no lyrics in the sky city, Ning Pei just played the guitar quietly, his body stood straight, his eyebrows and eyes were full of confidence, with the melodies that he listened to, the lights on the side of the road shone on his body, and the whole person looked dazzling.

Qin Qing looked at Ning Pei like this, and seemed to get to know each other again. She suddenly found that Ning Pei was smiling at the corner of his mouth, his eyes were looking at her, and she suddenly looked away, she didn't dare to look at him, and her heartbeat seemed to speed up a little.

......

In this way, in the eyes of everyone enjoying it, Ning Pei ended his performance. There was warm applause around, Ning Pei nodded, and then stepped forward and returned the guitar to the boy.

The boy's expression was embarrassed, embarrassed to say anything more, took the guitar, and quickly turned away.

Ten minutes later, Ning Pei and Qin Qing walked together on the path of the campus.

"I didn't expect you to not only know martial arts, but also play the guitar, you know a lot," Qin Qing looked at Ning Pei and said.

Ning Pei smiled and didn't explain, his guitar was also taught by the old man, which was also one of the few ways he had entertainment since he was a child.

"This is the second time." Ning Pei said suddenly.

"What?" Qin Qing was puzzled, and immediately reacted that Ning Pei was saying that this was the second time he had helped himself.

Qin Qing was a little funny, how could this person be so direct.

"So what do you want?"

"Your friend came to me today and said you cried last night, I want to know why, is it so sad to be helped by me?"

"Not what you think." Qin Qing hurriedly said, "I apologize to you for what my friend did, she messed around without understanding the situation, it really shouldn't be, this is a special wound medicine, you take it back and use it." ”

Qin Qing handed the medicine in his hand to Ning Pei, his eyes full of apologies.

Ning Pei took the medicine, "So, can you tell me why?" ”

"For my sake." He quickly added.

β€œ...... Do you know the professional league of Wujing? Qin Qing was silent for a while and asked.

"You know, I've seen reports of this when I'm abroad, and it seems that the domestic competition is more advanced." Ning Pei replied.

After hearing this, Qin Qing smiled with some pride: "The game "Martial Arts Competition" was developed in China, and then it slowly became popular all over the world, and the professional league was also the first to be done in China, and then there were slowly competitions in this area abroad, but the players with the highest level are all in our country. ”

"The professional league of martial arts competition is organized by the Huaguo Martial Arts Athletic Professional League, the alliance has a total of 16 teams, hundreds of players, these more than 100 players are what we commonly call professional players, they are from the hundreds of millions of martial arts players in the country, it can be said that the country, even the world, the highest level of martial arts players!" Qin Qing said, her eyes revealing a look of envy and yearning.

"Do you want to be a pro in martial arts?" Ning Pei turned his head to look at Qin Qing.

Qin Qing smiled and said, "Actually, I first came into contact with Wujing because of my brother. ”

"Huh?"

"My brother likes to play martial arts very much, and he likes to play with me, so I also like martial arts. But I didn't have the talent of my brother, he always improved very quickly, always called me stupid, and then pretended to be impatient to teach me how to fight; He took me to fight monsters and bosses, and he was always the first to give me good equipment, saying that you are such a dish, and you can only rely on equipment to pile up; He and I teamed up to play points competitions, and if I was too bad and was scolded, he was always the first to go back, so I made a lot of appointments with others......"

Speaking of this, Qin Qing had a faint smile on her face.

"My brother's dream is to become a professional fighter, and he told me that he would succeed one day, and then I would be his number one fan. I watched him train desperately, improving little by little, until one day, he was ecstatic to tell me that he had passed the selection and was ready to become a pro, and I was so happy for him! But that day, something happened. Qin Qing's voice began to be low.

"That day we went out to celebrate, and we met a gangster on the street who robbed with a knife, and my brother wanted to go up to help, and I grabbed him, and he said to me: Don't worry, that person can't hurt me...... Heh......" Qin Qing lowered her head, unable to see her expression clearly.

Ning Pei didn't ask about the result he already knew, "So, because I said the same thing that day, you're like that, right?" ”

Qin Qing looked up at Ning Pei, her eyes were red, and she said in a tone that couldn't tell whether it was blame or grievance: "You are very similar to my brother, you are both so talented and so confident, but why, you don't know how to cherish it!" ”

β€œ......”

"Actually, I know that I don't blame you for this, and I shouldn't have just left like that that day, I just ...... I just miss him a lot. Qin Qing raised her head and looked at the sky, a tear running down her cheek from the corner of her eye.

Ning Pei also raised his head, looked at the sky, and after a while, said, "I'm sorry." ”

Qin Qing turned her head to look at him and sniffed, "It should be me who apologizes, I shouldn't have done that to you that day." ”

Ning Pei smiled, "What do I do if I want to become a professional player?" ”

Qin Qing was stunned and looked at Ning Pei: "Do you really want to be a professional player, have you thought about it carefully?" ”

Ning Pei knew what she meant, the recognition of e-sports in society has not been high, and many professional players of e-sports are even considered to be not doing their jobs. Of course, with the continuous increase in the number of players of "Martial Arts Competition" and the commercial operation of professional leagues, the professional players of martial arts competition have very considerable incomes and their social influence is also increasing.

But as Qin Qing said, in China, hundreds of millions of martial arts players have produced more than 100 professional players, and it can be said that the proportion of success is too small and too small; Although the path of professional players has been recognized by society, the road itself is too difficult to walk.

"Try it, you said it, I'm so talented, wouldn't it be a waste not to do it." Ning Pei spread his hands and looked at Qin Qing.

Qin Qing took a deep breath and said angrily, "Do you think that good talent is enough?" My brother also trained hard to succeed, you have to start with the basics, and then you have to come to the team every week to train! ”

"What do you do when you're done?" Ning Pei continued to ask.

"After so many years of development, the Wujing Professional League has formed a very complete selection system, and after the playoffs every year, the league will organize each major team to conduct a draft, and these rookies are all from the seven training camps, and there is one such training camp in our Shanghai market."

"Oh, so I'm going to get into this bootcamp first?"

"That's right, the seven camps also recruit from amateur players every year. If you want to enter the training camp, there are three ways: the first is to enter through the recommendation of the club, there are a total of 107 clubs registered in the Wujing Professional League across the country, and they will have a certain number of places every year, and they can directly recommend people to enter the training camp; The second is to discover talents from the game by the training camp itself and then invite them in; The third is to participate in the National College League, which is held by the professional league in conjunction with major colleges and universities across the country, and the players who perform well in this competition every year have the opportunity to be selected by the training camp. ”

"Which way do you think I should get in?"

"Since you have come to our school and joined our team, the most suitable way for you is, of course, to participate in the National College League." Qin Qing looked at Ning Pei and said with some expectation.

"Okay." Ning Pei did not hesitate at all, and nodded in agreement.

Qin Qing stopped, turned sideways, and glanced at Ning Pei deeply: "Come to train tomorrow." ”
