In the gym on the top floor of the hotel, Xia Xing had just finished his afternoon training.

Even in the early stage of the official signing, Xia Xing still did not relax his strict requirements for himself.

He is well aware that he has many shortcomings.

Far less strong than the Europeans' bodies, this is a hard wound.

Since childhood, I have not received top-level football training, and some basic skills also need to be strengthened.

Now, he's 18 years old and has to work hard against the clock to get what he wants.

After the indoor physical training in the afternoon, after dinner, Xia Xing returned to the room as soon as possible.

"Virtual Arena", on!

With two hours of virtual arena time, Xia Xing will not waste a moment.

In reality, he had already exhausted his energy during the afternoon training, but here he was alive again.

Every time he plays with Zinedine Zidane and Thierry Henry, he can feel himself improving.

This is not a virtual improvement brought by the system plug-in, but a real progress of oneself.

Zidane's way of controlling the ball and passing, and Henry's dribbling and shooting skills have all made Xia Xing improve a lot.

And adjusting Zidane and Henry to the opponent's side made Xia Xing feel a strong sense of oppression.

Is this the deterrent power of superstars?

Xia Xing's physical strength has been very good since he was a child, and the "physical fitness of 90 points" marked by the system is very appropriate.

Played at full capacity for 120 minutes in the "Virtual Arena", with only a fifteen-minute break in between.

Xia Xing was covered in stinky sweat, extremely refreshing!

The thrill of movement, unparalleled!

At the end of the two hours, the "Virtual Arena" exited, and in reality only two minutes passed.

Take a bath, go to bed and lie down.

It's still early, and Xia Xing didn't fall asleep early.

He got into the system again and reviewed the game he had just played.

Use God's perspective to look back at the route and way of Zidane and Henry's passing just now.

looked at his running position again, and shook his head again and again.

It's so bad, there are so many abilities that need to be improved.

Enter the system training every night, and then review and analyze tactics through God's perspective.

This has become the rhythm of Xia Xing's continuous efforts at this stage and in the future.

If you want to have inhuman achievements, you must persist in inhuman hardship.

What's more, I still need to work hard to make up for my previous shortcomings and strike later.

On this night, the lights of Leicester City were shining.

No one knows that there is an Oriental teenager who is going all out, looking forward to breaking out of the cocoon and being reborn.

At nine o'clock in the morning the next day, Xia Xing received a call from Leicester City Club.

Immediately downstairs, a car was already waiting.

Leicester have a high regard for players on loan from friendly clubs.

Ten minutes by car, the car was parked under the Leicester City club's office building.

Xia Xing followed the guidance of the staff and came to an office on the third floor.

Knock on the door, get a response, and step inside.

Standing in front of him was a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes, although he was born and raised in England, but he did not have the rigid appearance of the British.

"Hi Xia, nice to meet you. I'm Leicester City FC Head of Reinforcements Steve Walsh, you can call me Steve. ”

Xia Xing smiled and said, "Hello Director Walsh, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”

Walsh looked at the young man in front of him with interest.

Although I had seen Xia Xing on the video of the exhibition match before, it was the first time I had seen a real person.

As Walsh, who has been in the business world for many years, he may not dare to compliment his eyes on players, but he has a very vicious eye for people.

Just watching an exhibition match in Xia Xing, Walsh has some judgments of his own about Xia Xing's character.

Although this young man looks low-key and calm on the outside, he has a competitive heart in his bones.

Two circular-style stop-and-pass passes in that game won applause from the crowd and earned him a chance to come off the bench.

Seize the opportunity and go all out to show yourself.

This character Walsh likes it very much.

And just now, although Walsh allowed Xia Xing to call himself "Steve", Xia Xing didn't.

He also politely addressed "Director Walsh".

It's not a stiff sense of distance, but a very polite way to handle it.

After all, Xia Xing didn't know what kind of personality he was, so it was better to call him normally.

From this point of view, this young man is not simple!

Walsh nodded, he asked his secretary to make Xia Xing a cup of Huaguo black tea, and then began to sign the contract.

Since it was just a lease contract, there was no signing ceremony.

After signing his name on the loan, Walsh smiled and patted Xia Xing on the shoulder.

'Young people, Leicester is a club with a human touch and you're going to love it. If you can help the team to achieve success, maybe we will be together for more than a year. Okay, I'll take you to Nigel's office, and you can talk to him, after all, he's the one who decides the future. ”

Xia Xing knows that the Nigel in Walsh's mouth is Leicester City coach Nigel Pearson.

It stands to reason that the head coach should show up at this signing ceremony.

If something doesn't work, then at least make a phone call or something.

But it's been three days since Xia Xing arrived in Leicester City, and Pearson hasn't been in contact with him at all, including his team.

Xia Xing knew that he must be in trouble.

But it's useless to think too much, as long as you are strong enough, let alone Pearson, even if it is Ferguson and Mourinho, they will love themselves.

Walsh sent Xia Xing to the corner of the second floor and pointed to the third office on the shady side.

"Your new manager is there, you go."

"Thank you, Director Walsh."

"Good luck."

Xia Xing quickly gathered his mood and walked to the office.

"Knock knock!"

"Come in!"

There was some impatience in his voice.

Xia Xing pushed the door into the house and saw two people sitting in the house.

He had done his homework before he came, and although he hadn't met each other, he knew the two people in front of him.

"Hello Coach Pearson, Coach Shakespeare. I'm a summer trip from Manchester United, please advise. ”

Assistant coach Craig Shakespeare smiled and got up to say hello.

He is slightly chubby, and he looks like an honest man who is very easy to get along with.

"Hello Xia, welcome to Leicester City."

Unlike Shakespeare's enthusiasm, Pearson was cold.

The room he chose was the dark side, and it was filled with an icy atmosphere, as if he was not a living person, but a machine that only focused on football.

At this moment, he carefully looked at the young man in front of him from head to toe, his brows were tightly locked, and he didn't seem to be in a high mood.

And the first sentence he said made Xia Xing's heart cold.

"Xia, I don't like to beat around the bush and say whatever I want.

"To be honest, I don't like you."
