"In less than a year, you have become one of the top clubs in China . How did Mr . Lu achieve this?"
The reporter from mainstream media was a professional and didn't ask about the relationship between Water Fairy and Lu Li like the tabloid reporters would . She also didn't ask about his family situation .
"I should mention," Lu Li said slowly, "That Ruling Sword is still far from the top . "
"But you are the champions of the Shadow Cup and the Runners up for the Magic Cup . You are also expected to win in the current professional league . Wouldn't such a club be at the top?" the reporter questioned .
Lu Li took a closer look at the person interviewing him and began to feel like they probably weren't
an impostor . Perhaps the mainstream media's knowledge of the gaming circle was not that deep, because it was only the ordinary players who actually thought Ruling Sword was a top club .
"For a club to be called a top club, there are a number of factors . The results of that club in competitions are only one factor . There are others, like the number of talented players you have…" Lu Li explained patiently .
When the reporter heard this, she knew that she had made a mistake . However, she saw that Lu Li had patiently explained this to her and he wasn't rude about it at all, which made a good impression on her . She then went on to ask about the hardships faced by Ruling Sword and how they overcame them . After this, she gave Lu Li an opportunity to describe his plans for the coming year .

If they used all the material that she managed to get, it would be full page special report .
It was also quite a positive view on their journey . It would convince the people that Ruling Sword's growth wasn't just due to luck, but because of the strategic steps that they had taken .
Lu Li wasn't that hopeful, because he doubted that an ordinary reporter like this would have such influence . However, if they were actually influential, and their first contact with him was Lu Li trying to escape the interview, then that would be the public eye's first impression .
There were also a number of other people following Lu Li and asking him questions, but the interview ended when Gale Legion's plane landed .
Gale Legion had come a long way, and there were many people travelling with them . There were more than 100 people part of the logistics team that travelled with the players . This was much more than Ruling Sword had brought .
Lu Li suddenly realized a very strange issue .
He couldn't understand why the Gale Legion players looked so fierce, especially since they were about to face Ruling Sword .
Although they were rivals, the match had not yet begun . Did they really have to make it so obvious? It almost seemed like they wanted to fight in real life . Lu Li's upbringing had made him extra vigilant, and he couldn't help but feel like something was wrong .

Wendelian was standing behind Torrent and regretted not egging them on just a little bit more . They might have even performed a full martial arts act if she did…
Fortunately, the Gale Legion players still remained sensible . After all, they were all professional players, and would have received a form of psychological training . They wouldn't have just gone up and fought Lu Li even though they didn't like him . Even if they wanted to, they would have to find a quiet place first . This was Jiangnan Airport and there were Ruling Sword personnel everywhere helping to maintain order .
Lu Li expressed his welcome towards Gale Legion and accompanied them while they were interviewed .
The reporters that were part of the media outlet didn't stay to interview Gale Legion . It seemed that they were only here for Ruling Sword, but Lu Li wasn't sure if Gale Legion's players noticed .
In fact, news outlets generally didn't pay much attention to the gaming circle, even though the gaming industry was now so large .
This transition was slowly being made, and in the next few months, the proportion of capital invested in reporting the gaming circle would increase by several dozen times . These news outlets would eventually be forced to pay attention .
The biggest investment in reporting for the past year was for the Gangnam Royals, but the recent results of that guild had been mediocre . They weren't eye-catching enough to report on .

Then, some experts recognized the next best candidate of their investment . It was a new club that had recently arrived on the scene – Ruling Sword .
When they saw Ruling Sword's journey and their results, the Jiangnan City's star news reporter had no problems stopping Lu Li and his team at the airport for an interview . As for Gale Legion, they were a semi-subsidiary of Glory Capital, which made them almost invisible .
After they picked up the Gale Legion players, they brought them back to a welcoming reception . Naturally, it was a lively event and it had to at least appear like it was run smoothly .
"Why don't you ask Water Fairy to come out?" Wendelian asked with a laugh . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
"Oh, I don't quite understand what you mean," Lu Li responded vaguely as he turned around .
"I heard that Water Fairy isn't currently in Jinling City . Don't you know that?"
Wendelian stared into Lu Li's eyes, looking for a guilty conscience or for him to dodge the question .
"I know that, but I don't know where she is . Maybe she just went out for a walk," Lu Li said calmly . The last time Water Fairy left Jinling City, it was to avoid her pregnant stepmother . Lu Li didn't really mind wherever she want, so he wasn't worried .
Wendelian looked away and was puzzled .
Lu Li seemed to be telling the truth . Could it really be true that he didn't know where Water Fairy was? Or perhaps… he was a very good liar .
Later, she considered that if Water Fairy and Lu Li really were together, would they join forces? Ruling Sword, Drizzle Court and Peerless City would form a three-club superpower .
What was even more worrying was that it would mutually advantageous for all of them .
The flaw in Peerless City was that they were subordinate to another guild that was led by a woman, and many players refused to join for that reason .
Drizzle Court's issue was that Water Fairy didn't strongly possess any of the categories of a strong leader . She wasn't particularly ruthless nor was she shameless . This naturally meant that there were a number of strategies that she couldn't employ .
Ruling Sword was lacking in resources, talented players and money…
If Lu Li became the leader of this three-club superpower, Peerless City's issue would be resolved . They would be led by an unrivalled expert who could kill Sorrowless . No one would be dissatisfied by the fact that Peerless City was subordinate to another guild, and there were no other obvious issues .
Drizzle Court would benefit as well, because Lu Li was a particularly ruthless player . None of the major guilds that knew Lu Li thought of him as a pure or innocent player .
As for the needs of Ruling Sword, although the infrastructure of Drizzle Court and Peerless City wasn't that established, it was definitely enough for Ruling Sword the time being . Water Fairy definitely had money; she was the first female tycoon in the game after all!
