The four players of Nirvana were very satisfied with the 2:0 victory over Sanctuary. The fans also felt relieved. The live broadcast room was filled with ridicules from netizens towards Sanctuary.

"Using Forest God's deck, but being defeated by Forest God's two disciples, the Sanctuary is really pathetic."

"They are the only club that has used the same deck for five years. They don't make progress. No wonder they got slapped in the face."

"I have to say, slapping and laughing are the most appropriate ways of attack when playing against the Sanctuary Club!"

Sanctuary does not have many die-hard fans, and its current popularity cannot be compared with Nirvana Club. The key reason is that this club does not have many players who can attract fans. Only the captain Zhu Chongliang's level is acceptable. He has made it to the top 32 in the individual competition - that is already the best record of Sanctuary players in individual competitions.

In recent years, in order to attract the attention of advertisers, Shao Bo has recruited young boys with first-rate looks as contestants. Some netizens even joked that the four contestants from Sanctuary could form a singing and dancing group and debut directly in the entertainment industry. Their way of attracting fans is also similar to that of the entertainment industry. They post selfies on Weibo from time to time, and each picture is edited to be as exquisite as a movie poster.

This approach has indeed attracted some fans who only care about appearance.

However, the Star Card Alliance is a place where strength speaks. No matter how rich your Sanctuary is or how good at marketing it is, if the players cannot perform well and win trophies, they will naturally not be able to consolidate their fans. No matter how good the photos are, they are just four vases.

There are many players with good looks in the league. For example, Nie Yuandao from the Judgement Team is a representative of mature and stable male gods; Fenghua has the gentle Tang Muzhou, Guiyu has the handsome Gui Sirui and the generous Lao Zheng, the brothers and sisters from Liushuang City are not ugly, Pei Jingshan from the Dark Night City is tall and handsome, and Ling Jingtang from the Temple of the Gods is handsome and humorous...

Why do fans continue to like those four vases in Sanctuary?

Compared with the great gods who are both good-looking and powerful, the four young handsome guys from the Sanctuary are simply here to make people laugh.

Moreover, Nirvana now has two high-looking players, Xie Mingzhe and Chen Xiao. The fans of Sanctuary, who were not very loyal to the team to begin with, have switched sides after this match. After all, it is really embarrassing to be a fan of Sanctuary. Not only are they often beaten 2:0, but they were also made to laugh to death by Wang Xifeng today. Anyone who wants to continue to be a fan of them is really out of their mind.

In just ten minutes after the end of the game, the number of fans of the Sanctuary official Weibo account shrank rapidly from more than 2 million to more than 1.5 million, with nearly 1/4 of the fans leaving. This is the second spectacular wave of fan loss in the history of the league - the first one also occurred in Sanctuary, when Chen Qianlin retired, and a large number of his fans turned against Sanctuary.

At this moment, Shao Bo in the backstage had an extremely ugly look on his face. He clenched his fists so hard that his nails almost dug into his palms.

He widened his eyes and stared at the live broadcast screen fiercely.

In the live interview room, Xie Mingzhe said frankly: "This water deck is not specially prepared for the Sanctuary. I made it a long time ago and even tried it with Yu Ke in the guild league. So, this should be considered as our semi-public deck for Nirvana."

The reporter asked: "Why did you use it when you were fighting the Holy Land?"

Xie Mingzhe smiled brightly: "First of all, of course, I want to hone the operation of this new deck in the official competition. In addition, I believe everyone knows that my master and Mr. Shao of the Holy Land Club have some conflicts. My master has let it go and doesn't want to care about the past. But as his apprentice, I can't just ignore the injustice of my master. It is my duty to help my master defeat the Holy Land."

The reporter asked, "Jia Tanchun's slapping attack and Wang Xifeng's mocking laughter, are they your positive responses to the Holy Land?"

Xie Mingzhe said without hesitation: "Yes, I believe Mr. Shao has already felt it."

Everyone: “…”

I didn't expect him to be so straightforward and not be tactful at all.

Zheng Feng laughed and said, "I really like the temper of your little disciple. He slapped Sheng Yu in front of millions of spectators. He was so straightforward. In the interview, he even said that he wanted to slap Shao Bo. He was not pretentious at all!"

Chen Qianlin felt helpless. Ah Zhe was indeed a straightforward person. If he didn't like someone, he would show it in his actions. He didn't care if reporters and fans would have bad things to say about him and would just say it directly.

Reporters looked at each other in bewilderment. No player in the entire league would dare to publicly criticize someone during an interview. After all, everyone has to consider their image and the power behind the person being criticized. Xie Mingzhe is really bold. Isn't he afraid that Shao Bo is stabbing you behind your back?

Tang Muzhou couldn't help but smile when he saw this. It was indeed the junior brother he was familiar with, who was jealous of evil and could not tolerate even a grain of sand in his eyes. He probably wanted to vent his anger on behalf of his master since he recognized Chen Qianlin as his master, and today he finally found the opportunity.

He mocked Sanctuary on the field, and openly mocked Shao Bo in the interview after the game. He was bold and outrageous, but also genuine and straightforward, without any hypocrisy. As for whether he would be targeted by Shao Bo in the future... would Xie Mingzhe be afraid of Shao Bo? If he was afraid, he would not have used Wang Xifeng's deck.

I'm scolding you, come over here - this is Xie Mingzhe's hidden message.

Shao Bo was so angry that his hands were shaking and his eyes were red. He wanted to kill the smiling boy with a fierce look! A boy under 20 years old actually laughed at him in the interview? He even dared to say that slapping him was a positive response to the Holy Land? Where did this kid get the courage?

Shao Bo was so angry that he stood up suddenly, but he felt dizzy because of the blood rushing to his head. He immediately held on to the sofa next to him and said with a breath: "Check the black history of this brat for me, I don't believe I can't kill him!"

The manager said seriously, "Mr. Shao, I have carefully checked Xie Mingzhe's background information and found no black history. His identity is rather special."

Shao Bo immediately asked with interest: "What's so special about it?"

The manager said: "He is an orphan without a father or a mother, and he grew up in an orphanage."

Shao Bo's eyes lit up, and he whispered in the manager's ear: "That's easy. Find me a public relations company..."

The manager was more shocked the more he listened. He felt that it was too much to treat a teenager like this. However, facing Shao's vicious eyes, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and nodded: "Don't worry, Shao, I'll do it right away."

***

Xie Mingzhe's public ridicule received great praise from fans. Everyone thought that it would be too hypocritical for Xie Mingzhe to pretend that "I used this deck unintentionally" at this time. It would be more realistic for him to just say "I just want to slap Sanctuary in the face."

Of course, there are also some passers-by and haters who think that Xie Mingzhe's behavior is very rude. After all, Shao Bo is a senior and so on. Xie Mingzhe's fans all retorted: "We only respect those who deserve respect!" "Shao Bo caused Lin Shen to retire. As his apprentice, do we still need to respect him? Politeness is not for such a scumbag!"

The two sides were arguing fiercely. Xie Mingzhe had already expected that there would be a lot of negative comments online, so he didn't care.

When he finished the interview and returned to the backstage, he saw Tang Muzhou waiting for him in the corridor.

The man smiled and looked at him tenderly. He walked up to him, gently pressed his shoulder and said, "Azhe, you said what I have been wanting to say all these years."

Xie Mingzhe said, "Don't you think I'm being too impulsive?"

Tang Muzhou said: "When necessary, it's okay to act impulsively once in a while."

The two smiled at each other tacitly. Tang Muzhou's eyes became softer. He looked at Xie Mingzhe and said, "However, Shao Bo is a very sinister person. You should be more careful in the future. He will definitely hire some trolls to discredit you. He may have already found out your detailed background."

Xie Mingzhe said straightforwardly: "I have been prepared for this, brother, just wait and see." As an orphan, he had nothing to worry about. As the saying goes, "the barefoot are not afraid of the ones wearing shoes", he only had the Nirvana Club to rely on. The funds for the establishment of Nirvana were all earned by himself, so he was not afraid of Shao Bo plotting against him.

Tang Muzhou really knew Shao Bo very well. That night, a strange topic became a hot search topic.

The topic is #謝明哲不良少年#. Clicking on the topic, you can see a blogger’s revelation:

The blogger claimed to be Xie Mingzhe’s middle school classmate and revealed that Xie Mingzhe was an orphan without a father or a mother who grew up in an orphanage. Due to poor family education, when he was fourteen or fifteen years old, he hung out with a group of hooligans all day long, smoking, drinking, skipping classes, and fighting in groups. He was a bad boy who gave teachers a headache and he almost killed someone and was sent to a juvenile detention center.

There are also some photos in the revelations, showing a teenager wearing ripped clothes, with weird dyed hair, a cigarette in his mouth, and empty wine bottles at his feet. His hair is messy and he has no image at all, but that youthful face is indeed what Xie Mingzhe looked like when he was a teenager.

This guy, who reeks of gangsterism, does not leave a good impression on people at all.

Of course, die-hard fans will not believe it easily, but many passers-by who usually dislike Xie Mingzhe have turned against him because of this.

Under this piece of news, some so-called "primary school classmates" and "middle school alumni" gradually emerged, all saying that Xie Mingzhe was a loner when he was a student, had a gloomy personality, often hung out in bars, and was the most hated problem teenager by teachers; there were also some strange revelations, saying that he had no family to care for him, so he had an extreme personality and often abused small animals at school...

As these revelations became more and more outrageous, Xie Mingzhe's own Weibo was flooded with trolls, with more than 100,000 comments in an instant. Apart from some die-hard fans who expressed their belief in him and would wait for his response, most of the voices were questioning.

Xie Mingzhe was so angry that he almost laughed.

It is said that Shao Bo has no bottom line in doing things, and today he has gained some experience.

Although Xie Mingzhe was a bit of a loner when he was young, with few friends and a preference for being alone, he was always learning quietly and never went to a bar - because he had no money! He saved all his money to buy brushes and paints.

In the leaked photos, the faces are all his, but the bodies are others. The photo-editing technology of this era is really amazing. If Xie Mingzhe was not 100% sure that he had not been to these places, one would almost think that these photos were real.

After seeing the online comments, Tang Muzhou immediately sent a message to Xie Mingzhe: "The photo must be photoshopped."

Xie Mingzhe felt warmed by his senior brother's trust, and replied, "Are you so sure? You don't know what I was like in the past."

Tang Muzhou said: "I believe you."

Xie Mingzhe: “…”

Tang Muzhou smiled slightly: "A perverted orphan boy who smokes, drinks, and abuses animals cannot grow up to be what you are now. In my heart, you are a person who will face any difficulties with a positive attitude. I believe in your character."

Xie Mingzhe's cheeks were a little hot from the compliments, and he said, "As for personality, I don't know if I have it, hahaha! I often hear people say 'I guarantee it with my personality' on TV, but it doesn't seem very reliable."

Tang Muzhou said: "If you said this, then it is absolutely reliable."

Xie Mingzhe found that when his senior brother comforted him, every word he said really touched his heart. The previous unhappiness instantly disappeared. Xie Mingzhe said seriously: "Don't worry, I am not that fragile. These are obviously the navy's slander against me. Don't worry, the truth will soon come out."

Tang Muzhou: "I'm glad you don't mind. I believe you can handle it."

At this moment, Qin Xuan suddenly sent a private message to Xie Mingzhe: "The photos in the revelation were synthesized in the later stage, but the other party's technology is superb. After magnifying it countless times, we can only see a little trace of tampering at the ends of the hair. This little evidence is not very convincing."

In terms of drawing, Qin Xuan is much more professional than Xie Mingzhe and knows how to find evidence. This teammate rarely speaks, but at critical moments he expresses his trust and support for Xie Mingzhe through actions.

Xie Mingzhe said happily: "Thank you, even a little bit of evidence is enough at the critical moment!"

Yu Ke said directly: "Azhe, I support you! I used my secondary account to respond to all the passers-by who left messages cursing you."

Xie Mingzhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Don't worry, Brother Chen and I are well prepared. We will make our backup plan after they reveal their trump cards."

At this time, in Chen Qianlin's dormitory.

Chen Xiao showed his brother the prepared materials. Chen Qianlin saw the clear evidence and was silent for a moment before he said softly, "You and Azhe really took the trouble to help me. Thank you."

Chen Xiao laughed and said, "Brother, you are too polite. We are annoyed to see the people from the Holy Land hanging around all the time. We might as well kill them with one blow this time. They will never be able to turn over and get out of the alliance completely. Then we will have peace from now on."

Facing his brother's smile, Chen Qianlin suddenly asked, "Do you know why the Holy Land has been losing in the past few years?"

Chen Xiao was stunned: "Brother, what do you mean by this?"

Chen Qianlin raised the corners of his lips slightly. "Because my deck has obvious loopholes. It will easily collapse after being caught by the opponent. Lao Nie and Lao Zheng have actually seen it a long time ago. After I found it, I wanted to make a few more cards to make up for it, but later because of the lawsuit, I left the alliance and did not fix this loophole."

Chen Xiao: “…………”

Chen Qianlin said calmly: "So, the decline of the Holy Land is actually caused by me."

Looking at his brother's calm expression, Chen Xiao couldn't believe it at all - it turned out that his brother had already known the outcome of the Holy Land. He said he didn't care, but in fact it was because the Holy Land had been under his control until now.

Chen Qianlin said: "The stupidest thing about Shao Bo is that he relies too much on the decks I made, but fails to train first-class designers with the ability to create original cards. It's not that I don't care at all, I just knew that Sanctuary wouldn't last long, so I was too lazy to pay attention to them."

Chen Xiao was in mixed feelings.

No wonder Tang Muzhou is full of evil, and Xie Mingzhe is also particularly good at cheating people - his master Chen Qianlin is the originator of "evil-heartedness".

Uh...it seems that the brother he likes is not as simple as he thought?
