"The ball is in! 1 to 0, only 5 minutes into the game, and the Yecheng Team has scored..."

A bustling street, a roadside restaurant.

Seeing the Yecheng Team score, the owner, who was helping a customer with leftovers, put down the spoon and slapped his thigh: "Darn it, lost a ball so quickly, truly an Ah-Dou who can't be supported!"

His tone was full of disappointment. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

The uncle eating silently gulped down his drink.

The other uncle beside him sighed: "Wu Da was a genius when he played, but now as a coach… but you can't really blame him, he hasn't been on the field for 30 years."

"In my opinion, Yun City Team is going to lose terribly tonight, Uncle Four, what do you think?" The owner walked over with a plate of food and placed it on the uncle's table.

The uncle said nothing, just lowered his head to eat meat.

The other uncle laughed: "He's fuming."

Only then did the uncle lift his head, glared at the other uncle, and said: "You don't know squat, eat your food!"

At this time, the camera returned to the studio, where the pundit Lu Dong was commenting on that goal: "Yun City Team's defense is as fragile as paper, disgraceful..."

The owner listened and confusedly said: "Isn't that person speaking too harshly?"

The other uncle said: "That guy is always foul-mouthed, but tonight he seems particularly foul-mouthed, maybe he has a grudge against Yun City Team. But losing is losing, can't help being ridiculed!"

The uncle served himself a bowl of plain white rice and ate heartily, remaining silent.

Hang City, Wangu Mansion.

Wei Jiansheng called outside Wei Tiansheng's office: "Mr. Lu, you did well tonight, father is very pleased, hope to continue this in the next games!"

On the other end, soccer pundit Lu Dong's voice: "Young Master Wei, rest assured, I'm going all out tonight, will mercilessly criticize Yun City Team!"

Wei Jiansheng laughed: "Great, looking forward to your performance, Mr. Lu. By the way, don't forget you have an article to publish."

Lu Dong patted his chest: "Don't worry, I've had the article ready for long, no need to change a word, I have it scheduled to be published after the game ends!"

Wei Jiansheng said with satisfaction: "Good, I've already reserved the trending section, once Mr. Lu posts, it'll be arranged to trend, tonight I want Yun City Team to become a joke on the internet!"

After hanging up, Wei Jiansheng made another call.

This time, to smear Lin Fan and Mortal Group, he spent quite a bit, besides Lu Dong, he arranged for other major influencers, in the soccer world and business alike.

This time, he planned a comprehensive smear against Lin Fan, although it's just a small warm-up match, he intended to blow it up.

After a round of calls and arrangements, Wei Jiansheng was satisfied.

"Lin Fan kid, tonight's just the beginning, it's only your team's first warm-up match, there are two more, and official matches later, let's see if you fear it, hahaha..."

Wei Jiansheng couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Then he returned to Wei Tiansheng's office.

Wei Tiansheng looked at him: "Everything arranged?"

Wei Jiansheng laughed: "Yes, Father, we can sit back and enjoy the show."

Wei Tiansheng nodded: "Good, the match continues, if nothing unexpected happens, Yecheng Team will score again soon."

Wei Jiansheng sat down, and the father-son duo continued to watch the match.

They have clashed with Lin Fan repeatedly, and every time ended up defeated, falling into traps, having grown to hate Lin Fan to the core.

Tonight, they're finally venting.

Just seeing Lin Fan in trouble, they are delighted, the richest man in Jiangnan, savoring the soccer match.

Lin Fan remained unaware of the father's operations.

Lin Fan, now mixed in with Yun City Team's fans, watching the match, the game resumed after Yecheng Team scored, players were vying on the field.

Yecheng Team's goal caused quite an impact.

Lin Fan possesses top-tier athletic talent, his soccer skill is world-class, thus just by sitting in the audience, he can assess both teams' overall status.

After Yun City Team lost the goal, at first there was some disappointment among the crowd, but Wu Da then encouraged them, guided them to keep playing by his tactical rhythm, Yun City Team soon adjusted, adapting to the game tempo and gradually getting into the state...

Meanwhile, after scoring, the players of Yecheng Team obviously had inflated attitudes, as if they suddenly became world-class stars, facing mere amateur kids.

Initially, Yecheng Team didn't take Yun City Team seriously, and believed they'd win big.

But Yecheng's previous mindset and their current one differ.

Previously, Yecheng Team treated Yun City Team as an opponent after all, but now, they completely disregard them, as if playing with little kids.

Under this mindset, Yecheng Team lowered their guard, as if they're not playing soccer, but walking dogs in a neighborhood.

Facing Yecheng Team's mindset, everyone feels it's justified.

"Yun City Team is so garbage, even if they stand still, they'll win!"

"Haha, this is probably Yecheng Team's easiest match ever!"

"This money is too easy, I feel like I could go up and score a few against Yun City Team!"

"Never seen a team as trashy as Yun City Team, they should quickly withdraw from Xia Super League!"

In the broadcast studio.

Finding the match dull, the host started a chat with Lu Dong: "Teacher Lu, we can see, Yecheng Team's players are quite relaxed, this could be Yecheng Team's easiest win."

Lu Dong chuckled: "I bet any team playing against Yun City Team will have their easiest win!"

This statement led to laughter in the studio comments.

"Teacher Lu's mouth, oh, so harsh! I like it!"

"666..."

"Exactly!"

The host said: "Teacher Lu, aren't you being absolute, Yun City Team is still a Xia Super League team after all."

Lu Dong dismissed arrogantly: "Just them, even unqualified for Xia Super League, I dare say, if you randomly gather 11 kids from the Youth Training Camp, they'd defeat this Yun City Team, that's my judgment, believe it or not, it's the truth!"

Host: "That's Teacher Lu's judgment, does not represent this channel's stance."

Knowing Lu Dong as notably sharp-tongued, the host sensed something amiss, that tonight Lu Dong was excessively venomous, excessively inappropriate.

Lu Dong said: "Well, I'm just objectively evaluating Yun City Team, facts will prove I'm right."

The host shifted focus back to the game: "Alright, let's watch this play, Yecheng Team advancing, attacking on the left flank, nearing Yun City Team's penalty area, can they score... passing, beautiful!"

Lu Dong laughed: "I said, this ball will go in again..."

Not before finishing his sentence.

The host interrupted: "Wait, the ball was intercepted by Yun City Team, it's Yun City Team's 16th little warrior Li Yi, his ball handling resembles Henry... Yun City Team counterattacks... such speed..."
