"Listen to what you are saying."
Xi Min looked at Xu Zhi who had just returned with a helpless look on his face.
Xu Zhi said indifferently: "It should be okay, right?"
Even though what she said was provocative, it just showed that she did have some understanding of the game and had an extremely arrogant personality, which was fine.
It would be better to say that if you simply act like you know nothing about the game and don't have a deep understanding of it, then that would be overdoing it.
After all, in the eyes of the public, she is now a "young lady" who got in through the backdoor, and the teaching resources of the inner courtyard of Liancheng should be enough for her, a young lady who is out of touch with the world, to understand the situation in the competition.
As for the public opinion that was sparked online after the commentary, that was what Xu Zhi cared least about.
"Isn't it good?"
Chu Xiaoyue calmly analyzed, "Xiaoxuemei's current impression on the outside world just happens to align with our plan."
"If we're lucky in the first round, we shouldn't be matched with very strong opponents. If we still don't choose to let my junior sister play against weaker opponents, it will further confirm the outside world's speculation about her. This will allow other teams to focus on studying my abilities and neglect their defenses against her."
"Look, some people are already saying that the personality revealed by Junior Sister during her commentary shows that she wouldn't want to sit on the bench forever."
Xu Zhi also turned her head slightly to look over. It was a hot search term that she was explaining, and netizens were having a heated discussion about it.
Judging by Xu Zhi's performance today, I feel like someone with that conceited personality wouldn't want to skip a single match and just be a background player.
[The young lady will definitely only appear when she is absolutely sure that she will not lose. ]
She was being very arrogant today. I wonder if she can still be as arrogant when it's her turn?
What if she really doesn't go?
"That's unlikely. From what she said today, isn't it obvious that she's arrogant? How could she endure sitting at the water dispenser all the time?"
[Indeed, people are saying online that she got in through the backdoor. If it were me, I wouldn't tolerate it either. I'd definitely have to show up and prove myself if I had the chance.]
"It's true." Xu Zhi was a little surprised. Chu Xiaoyue, who seemed even more otherworldly than her, actually had a pretty good grasp of netizens' mentality.
But netizens' understanding of her is obviously too one-sided. If she could get rewards by sitting at the water dispenser all the time, she would be very willing to do so.
His character is unruly, his temper is changeable, but laziness is ingrained in his bones.
"That's true, but it might ruin Xu Zhi's reputation."
Xi Min didn't finish her words. Just by taking a look at the polarized comments about Xu Zhi in the entry, everyone understood what she wanted to say.
Liancheng Guangmingyuan intends to train Xu Zhi to become the leader of the next generation, and "reputation" also plays a certain role.
Especially when she has the potential to become a representative figure.
"It's okay, right?" Xu Zhi continued, "As long as the game is good, the negative reviews now will eventually turn around."
When an incompetent person speaks arrogantly, it is called being ungrateful, while when a capable and powerful person speaks arrogantly, it is called having a strong character.
"Okay."
Xi Min said helplessly that Xu Zhi himself didn't care about his reputation, so she shouldn't worry about it.
The group stage schedule was in full swing. Apart from Xu Zhi and Shu Yushan participating in a commentary session, Liancheng did not accept any other commentary invitations. Xu Zhi and Shu Yushan also received a considerable dividend, all thanks to the program effects brought by Xu Zhi.
As for Dingchan's team, how would they react if they saw what she said after the game?
Xu Zhi hadn't thought about these things.
The only news that surprised them slightly from training and watching the game was that Ding Chan's first-year student broke through to the seventh level of proficiency before the third round of group matches, successfully passing the level again.
“It’s really surprising.”
Shu Yushan's face was pale, with a hint of surprise in his pupils.
"Could this team really make it to the finals?" Tong Zhou raised his eyebrows and glanced at Xu Zhi.
More than half of the group stage schedule has passed, and many people are still talking about Xiaoxuemei's sharp comments. If this team that she criticized for being useless can really enter the finals, I'm afraid many people will be ecstatic.
Xu Zhi felt his gaze and said expressionlessly, "Even if we make it to the finals, so what?"
Tong Zhou laughed out loud upon hearing this: "That's true."
Even if I get in, so what?
Even if they continue to hone and improve in the auditions and group stages, that is limited.
They are not the protagonists in hot-blooded comics, and it is not so easy for them to be defeated by the weak in the real world. Apart from adding some show effects to the competition, there seems to be nothing worth paying attention to.
Soon, the group stage was coming to an end. Many of the teams that Xi Min had shown them the videos in advance also achieved good results in the group stage. The team called [Luzhou] where Zhushen Heavy Industry was located won all the victories with an absolutely strong attitude, attracting a lot of attention from the public.
"The group stage is almost over. It looks like there are a few teams worth watching in this group stage, but whether they can match up against us is still uncertain. The final opening ceremony and draw will be held in two days. Let's stop the extra training for now. We just need to stay in shape, rest up, and get ready for the game."
After Xi Min finished speaking, the expressions of several team members became expectant.
"Is it finally our turn to perform?"
"The training matches are so boring, let's start the finals soon!"
"Not so fast. There will be a week's gap after the draw, which will allow the teams that have just advanced from the group stage to adjust to the finals."
"It doesn't matter! I can't wait to see who our first opponent will be!"
"Teacher Xi, you must let me play in the first game."
Tongzhou anxiously supported himself on the table with both hands. God knew how much he wanted to give full play to his abilities on the court. He had to hold back on all the training matches he had played recently, which made him feel so frustrated!
Xi Min glanced at him and nodded decisively: "Okay."
"Do you still want to play in the first game?"
"Me, me, me!" Ji Muge raised his hand directly.
Xi Min also nodded: "Okay."
"Really?" Ji Muge was overjoyed.
"It's fine. We probably won't be drawn against very strong opponents in the first round. While the tournament organizers can't cheat, they will definitely try to adjust the final group arrangements by using the principle of avoiding seeding to ensure a more enjoyable final."
They will probably only face group stage players.
At worst, if he is really unlucky and encounters a very difficult team, Ji Muge will himself propose to make a substitution.
This is also the reason why Xi Min dared to agree without hesitation, because she knew that there were no fools in this team.
