The news that Liushuang City won the "double championship in the team competition" quickly spread across the Internet and became a hot search that day. But on the hot search list, a strange ID also appeared - Fat Uncle.
Nowadays, all the netizens who play the Star Card game know this celebrity. With love, admiration or curiosity, more and more players follow Uncle Fat's personal homepage. Every time Xie Mingzhe refreshes his homepage, the number of fans is increasing. By 10 o'clock in the evening, it has exceeded the 500,000 mark!
Xie Mingzhe simply couldn't believe it.
When he was in college on Earth, he also registered a Weibo account, but he only had 50 followers, all of whom were classmates and a few zombie fans. He didn't expect that after being reborn and coming to this world, he would become an Internet celebrity.
The number of comments on his homepage quickly exceeded 10,000, most of which expressed their love for the cards he made. Of course, there were also some negative comments and mocking remarks from haters. The overgrown homepage became extremely lively, and Xie Mingzhe was flattered by the enthusiasm of netizens.
Several comments were pushed to the top, and one of the most liked comments was "The key to Liushuang City's victory in this finals lies in Uncle Pang's deathrattle card Dou'e. If you agree, please like me." Many people liked it below, and some of Uncle Pang's diehard fans said, "The cards made by our Uncle Pang are amazing!" But some fans of Liushuang City retorted unhappily, saying that it was Fang Yu's good command.
Netizens were arguing fiercely. Some people, who were not sure whether they were fans or haters, deliberately praised Fatty and belittled Fang Yu. Some even said, "Fat Uncle can make a death rattle card. Fang Yu can just forget about it!"
Such remarks made Xie Mingzhe frown.
His original intention was not to steal the master's job, nor did he want to start a fight. Fang Yu took the initiative to find him to customize the Dou E card, and although Dou E played an important role in Liushuang City's victory in the finals, the most important thing was that Fang Yu had a strong ability to grasp the opportunity and commanded very calmly. If it were someone else, even if he was given ten Dou E cards, he might not win.
In order to stop the dispute between fans of both sides from continuing to ferment, Xie Mingzhe decided to send a message.
He thought for a long time before typing out a calm and objective message: "Thank you for following me and liking the cards I made. I also watched today's finals. Fenghua and Liushuang City were evenly matched and the game was very exciting. The game changes rapidly and winning or losing is normal. I think Fang Yu's command ability is very strong, which is the key to Liushuang City's victory. Tang Shen is also very powerful, but his luck is a little worse. There is no point in arguing who is stronger, they are all stronger than me anyway:)"
The last sentence is not humble, but a fact. Although Xie Mingzhe can make many cards now, he cannot compare with Fang Yu and Tang Muzhou in terms of command ability.
The fans who were arguing fiercely just now saw that he had posted a new status and left comments and likes: "Fat Uncle is so humble!" "Fat Uncle has a very high EQ. He praised Fang Yu and Tang Muzhou together without offending anyone!" "I think Fat Uncle must be a middle-aged uncle with a broad chest and a slightly broad body, right?" "True fans don't mind what you look like at all, because I am also a fat man, weighing 200 pounds!"
As soon as Xie Mingzhe released this message, most of his fans immediately put on a "fan filter", thinking that he was an experienced, knowledgeable, and open-minded middle-aged man. He must be fat, but he has a tolerant and kind personality. He did not get angry when being chased and scolded by black fans, but instead praised Fang Yu and Tang Muzhou.
Fans have automatically imagined a smiling middle-aged fat uncle.
Xie Mingzhe didn't expect that as soon as this message was released, the great player Fang Yu would be the first to forward it, and he also attached a comment: "Thank you, Uncle Pang, for your deathrattle card, which helped us realize our dream of becoming the double champion of team battles [heart]"
The fans of Liushuang City had dazed expressions on their faces, because Fang Yu was notoriously cold and indifferent. Apart from posting some advertisements for the various activities promoted by the alliance, he never posted any daily news on Weibo, nor did he forward private messages from other great players in the alliance.
He just forwarded the Star Card Alliance's official match report, congratulating Liushuang City for winning the championship. Then, right after that, he forwarded Fatty's personal message, which was the first time in history.
Fans were speculating about the relationship between Fang Yu and Uncle Pang. A large number of fans from Liushuang City flocked to Uncle Pang's homepage, and the number of followers increased by hundreds of thousands.
What surprised the fans even more was that Tang Muzhou also retweeted the message and said: "Fat Uncle is indeed a card-making genius. I look forward to you making more interesting cards [hug]"
Tang Muzhou’s fans: “…………”
He has cheated you so much, and you still hug him?!
Previously, he created the flower card Zhang Daiyu Burying Flowers to kill you instantly, and now he has become Zhang Dou'e, causing the Fenghua team to lose the chance to win the double championship. Logically, God Tang should hate this fat uncle to the core, but judging from Tang Muzhou's attitude, it seems that he has a good relationship with the fat uncle?
The fans who were full of fighting spirit and wanted to scold Uncle Fat suddenly became deflated and ran to follow him.
In the blink of an eye, the number of followers of Xie Mingzhe's personal homepage exceeded one million!
Breaking a million in one day is really scary. It shows that Fang Yu and Tang Muzhou are both top traffic gods in the league. Just forwarding the message will bring him more than 500,000 fans...
Xie Mingzhe replied to Fang Yu's forwarding with a "You're welcome!" When he saw his senior's forwarding, he felt guilty and sent a private message, saying, "Senior, I'm not targeting you on purpose. I never thought Fang Yu would hide the Dou E card until the finals, and I never thought that the finals of this season would be a showdown between Fenghua and Liushuang City."
Fang Yu was really patient. She didn't suddenly pull out the Dou E card until the final deciding game. Tang Muzhou was caught off guard and lost the game. Xie Mingzhe was indeed the culprit.
Tang Muzhou pretended to be angry: "You also know that it was you who caused me to lose the championship?"
Xie Mingzhe: "I was wrong... [bows and apologizes]"
When Tang Muzhou saw the Q-version figurine he sent with a bowed and apologetic expression, he couldn't help but smile and said, "It's okay. I'll record this amount and double the compensation later."
Xie Mingzhe's scalp tingled. He felt that he had no good intentions in saying this. Just as he was about to refute, Tang Muzhou quickly changed the subject: "Are you familiar with Fang Yu? He never forwards other people's updates, but today he actually forwarded yours. It seems that he likes you very much."
Xie Mingzhe explained: "Not really familiar, right? When I first opened my shop, he came to me and wanted to customize a deck of cards for me and let me keep the copyright of the cards. I thought at the time, it would be a waste not to make money if it came to me, so I agreed. I didn't have much of a relationship with him. In total, we only talked less than five times."
Tang Muzhou said: "Although Fang Yu is a little cold, he is a simple person without any bad intentions. All he thinks about is the game and card data. Since he admires you so much, it would be nice for you to make friends with him. You can arrange some training matches with Liushuang City in the future. Liushuang City is the most difficult to arrange."
Xie Mingzhe's eyes lit up: "Yes, I have his contact information, we can contact him more often in the future."
It never hurts to make more friends in the league. Xie Mingzhe doesn't want the Nirvana team to be tied only to Fenghua in the future. He can also get to know more players from other clubs and integrate into this team as soon as possible.
What Xie Mingzhe didn't know was that at this moment, everyone in the alliance group was madly complaining about Fang Yu -
Ye Zhu: "Uncle Fatty actually made cards for Liushuang City? It seems that Uncle Fatty's instant death cards were also made under Fang Yu's instruction!"
Shan Lan: "So the person hiding in the dark is Fang Yu, I never thought :)"
Nie Yuan said: "The truth has been revealed, why doesn't Fang Yu come out to commit suicide to atone for his crime?"
Zheng Feng: "I'll pay for the meals of the entire alliance for a week, and give everyone a big red envelope. Maybe everyone will consider sparing you!"
Fang Yu has always been a quiet person in the group. No matter how heated the discussion was, he rarely posted a message and just watched silently. But today, the topic was directed at him, so he couldn't ignore it, so he popped up to clarify, "The instant death card has nothing to do with me. I paid Uncle Fatty to make this Dou E card."
The four junior brothers from Liushuang City, Qiao Xi, Su Qingyuan, and Xiao Yi, immediately stepped forward to vouch for their senior brother.
Everyone was surprised. Is this really the case? Who was the one who sold the full alliance deck to Uncle Fatty and taught him how to make instant death cards?
Tang Muzhou felt a little guilty when he saw what everyone was talking about. Once the fact that he was Senior Brother Xie Mingzhe was exposed, he would probably be besieged by everyone, so he had already prepared the funds for treating everyone to dinner, karaoke, and travel!

The tenth season has finally come to an end, and the Star Card Alliance's year-end ceremony will begin on time at 8:00 p.m. on December 31st.
This is the most grand evening party jointly organized by the professional league and the official. There are many performances and major events of the year are reviewed. At the same time, the league will also award trophies to players in all groups of this season, which is equivalent to an awards ceremony.
Of course, many people from Nirvana also went to watch the ceremony in person, to feel the lively atmosphere of the ceremony. Who knows, maybe they will be the ones to walk onto the big stage to receive the awards next year - everyone is looking forward to it.
In the individual competition of the tenth season, the champion was Shan Lan from the Judgment Club, the runner-up was Xu Changfeng from Fenghua, and the third place was Gui Sirui from Guiyu. In the doubles competition, the champion was the master-disciple combination of Nie Yuandao and Shan Lan from Judgment, the runner-up was Ling Jingtang and Xu Xingtu from the Temple of the Gods, and the third place was Pei Jingshan and Ye Zhu from the Dark Night City.
In the team competition, Liushuangcheng, Fenghua, and Guiyu took the top three places.
Many players did not participate in the individual and double events this season, so this ranking does not represent the strength ranking of players in the entire league. For example, Tang Muzhou, Nie Yuandao, Lao Zheng, and Ling Shen did not participate in the individual competition this season. Although Shan Lan won the championship, it does not prove that he is the strongest.
The six major clubs shared the trophies in various events. Some achieved their dreams, while others felt regretful. When giving their acceptance speeches on stage, everyone said that they would continue to work hard next year!
At the end of the award ceremony, the host also kept the secret, saying: "Over the past ten years, our Star Card Alliance has gradually grown, and countless excellent players and designers have emerged! Next year's eleventh season will be a brand new starting point for the alliance. There will be major changes in the competition system. The specific announcement will be released before the start of the new season, so stay tuned!"
This sentence was cursed by fans and was posted on Toutiao today. Damn it, can the official please stop keeping us in suspense?
In fact, this is not the host's fault, because the league is still discussing and has not made a final decision. The issue of changing the competition system will be decided at the league's preparatory meeting before the start of the next season. Chen Qianlin said that the team competition may be brought forward to the first half of the year, which may become a reality.
Xie Mingzhe was nervous but also full of expectations, because he was sure that next season, a brand new team would appear in the league - Team Nirvana!
