Seeing how sensible the ruler was and how it made him look good, Master An couldn't help but give him a thumbs up in his heart.
"Please!"
He made a gesture, indicating that Lee Doo-hwan and the others should go inside together.
"Chanyoung, you're a good brother!" Lee Doo-hwan praised him after they entered the hotel.
Compared to the ruler, the current players at T1 are simply mediocre!
"Not at all, not at all, we're still far behind your T1!" Master An said, though it sounded like he was just being polite.
But in reality, he wasn't being polite at all.
Because that's how he sees it.
While Master An greatly admires the ruler's acceptance in traditional culture, he also values the competition aspect highly.
Unfortunately, despite being sensible, he was always just one step short in the game!
The two chatted and laughed as they entered the private room.
The level of politeness they displayed made it seem to outsiders that they were long-lost friends!
Who would have thought these two were rivals?!
"Order whatever you like!"
Once inside the private room and seated, Master An displayed the same magnanimity.
"Sang-hyeok, look at him!" Lee Doo-hwan whispered to Lee Sang-hyeok, complaining.
Upon hearing this, Lee Sang-hyeok pursed his lips but said nothing, because he really didn't know what to say.
After ordering a few things, while waiting for the food to arrive, Master An scratched the back of his head and said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Um, I'll call you Doo-hwan, you don't mind, do you?"
Since only familiar people would call out like that, Sect Leader An spoke up first to ask.
The usually decisive and ruthless Master An, who was quick to use his stick, now had a restrained expression on his face!
Seeing him like this, the group of people sitting opposite him, including Ruler, all looked on with disbelief.
What's going on?!
Is the sun rising in the west?
The group exchanged glances, all seeing a look of shock in each other's eyes!
Only BDD kept staring at Lee Sang-hyeok, who was sitting between Lee Doo-hwan and Koo Sung-bin, wondering how he could get the other's contact information later!
"Of course you can."
Upon hearing Lee Doo-hwan's reply, Master Ahn grinned.
"Alright, then I'll call you Douhuan!"
Actually, I have a question I'd like to ask you, but I'm not sure if I should!
"Feel free to ask any questions. I'm beholden to your kindness, so I'll answer whatever I can!"
"Then I'll ask." After organizing his thoughts, Sect Leader An said, then somewhat awkwardly continued, "I just want to know, how did you train them to improve their strength so quickly in such a short time!"
Before Lee Doo-hwan arrived, Samsung, while not completely dominating SKT, certainly won more often than they lost.
But ever since Lee Doo-hwan returned and SKT changed its name to T1, they haven't won a single game in the entire Spring Split.
This left Sect Leader An utterly hopeless!
"That's easy!" Lee Doo-hwan laughed upon hearing this. "I thought you wanted to ask about something important!"
"This isn't a big deal?" Sect Leader Ahn felt he couldn't quite understand Lee Doo-hwan anymore.
If this isn't a big deal, then what would be considered a big deal?
"Actually, I didn't do much. I just pushed them a little harder, using some external methods to unleash their potential!"
"Is it that simple?" Sect Leader An was clearly skeptical.
After all, Samsung hasn't won a single game since Lee Doo-hwan returned, which is something that can't be achieved through ordinary means!
"Of course, I have no reason to lie to you."
"So what are your external methods?" Sect Leader An vaguely grasped a point, but was not quite sure, so he could only ask tentatively.
"That's right, it's the one you're thinking of!"
Lee Doo-hwan's words confirmed what Master Ahn had guessed, but they also made him even more puzzled.
Since it's the same as what I expected—
You've tried plenty of external methods, so why haven't they had any effect?
Could it be that—
Am I being too kind?
With this in mind, Sect Leader An decided to increase the educational resources going forward.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that Samsung lost not because his training wasn't strict enough, but entirely because the gap in some positions was too large.
For example, when it comes to junglers, it's no exaggeration to say that Lee Doo-hwan is Clid's godfather. Whenever the two teams meet, you'll see that iconic scene after about ten minutes.
That is, Lee Doo-hwan was chasing Clid all over the jungle.
As for the mid lane, there's no need to even mention BDD and Lee Sang-hyeok.
It's like a one-sided love between the two of them, with no expectation of reciprocation!
BDD is like a girl who only has eyes for the male protagonist and selflessly dedicates herself to him.
Her heart was filled with the male lead, but unfortunately, the male lead didn't have her in his heart; he only had other people in his heart.
But what's most despicable is that the male protagonist isn't completely indifferent to the girl.
He only thinks of his partner when he can't find an outlet for his frustrations, and then he uses BDD (Bodily Desire) to recharge afterward.
Therefore, given that the mid and jungle lanes are naturally lagging behind, while the bot lane is not too far behind, the situation is quite different.
This gap can no longer be bridged simply by external pressure to force growth. Unfortunately, as a military general, Master Ahn is mostly single-minded. Since Lee Doo-hwan said it was forcing growth, he would naturally do the same.
If that still doesn't work, it just means that you haven't pushed the seedlings too hard enough and you need to be even more ruthless. At this moment, the food was brought up by the waiter one by one.
Because the hotel manager was a fan of Lee Doo-hwan, he gave him a special discount.
Of course, Lee Doo-hwan was quick to oblige and granted the other party's wish to take a photo together.
"Come, come, Dou-hwan, let me pour you some!" Master Ahn enthusiastically offered to pour wine for Lee Dou-hwan.
Unfortunately, Lee Doo-hwan neither drank alcohol nor smoked.
"Really not?" A regretful look appeared on Master Ahn's face as he faced Lee Doo-hwan's refusal.
"I really won't." Lee Doo-hwan shook his head with a smile.
"That's such a pity." Master An smacked his lips twice, and then stopped urging them to drink.
The meal went fairly well, at least that's how Lee Doo-hwan felt.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Lee Doo-hwan remained a little polite.
"Chanyoung, I'll pay for this meal!"
Of course, among the people present, besides Master Ahn, only Lee Doo-hwan, Lee Sang-hyeok, and Koo Sung-bin were qualified to pay the bill.
In South Korea, even though people are from the 80s generation, when they go out to eat, it's usually the seniors who pay the bill.
While it's possible that some might simply be arrogant and enjoy the benefits of superiors and subordinates, someone like Sect Leader An would definitely not do that.
But then again, could Lee Sang-hyeok's decision not to associate with the 80s generation be related to this?
After all, if you're from the 80s generation, you're expected to pay the bill when you go out to eat.
This seems to be something that Lee Sang-hyeok, who is stingy with low-level code, really can't accept!
"What? You do it? I'll do it!"
This was something we both agreed upon!
Upon hearing Li Douhuan's words, Sect Leader An's expression immediately changed.
Without even thinking, he immediately refused.
"I said I'd treat everyone to dinner, so I'll treat everyone to dinner!"
"I'll pay the bill, Doo-hwan, you guys aren't allowed to try and take it from me!"
After saying that, Master An walked gracefully toward the bar.
Watching the other person run off to pay the bill, Lee Doo-hwan moved closer to Lee Sang-hyeok.
"Sang-hyeok, look at him!"
"I----"
Before Lee Sang-hyeok could even speak, Koo Sung-bin chimed in.
"Yeah, Sang-hyeok, look at Chan-young hyung!"
Lee Sang-hyeok: "————"
He felt that coming to Samsung today was a mistake!
After Master An finished paying the bill, the group left the hotel.
Since it was only a little past five o'clock and there was still plenty of time, Sect Leader An stretched in the sunlight and then said with a smile.
"It's still early, are you heading straight back?"
"I'm going back," Lee Sang-hyeok said quickly, as he really didn't want to be dissed by Lee Doo-hwan anymore.
"Doo-hwan, what about you?" Master Ahn then looked at Lee Doo-hwan.
To be honest, he had talked a lot with Lee Doo-hwan at the dinner table, and the other man's behavior suited his taste very well.
Take the meal we just had, for example. The other person even wanted to go to dinner after I had already agreed to treat them—
Check, please!
If possible, Master Ahn really wants to get to know Lee Doo-hwan better.
Unfortunately—
Because they belong to opposing camps, no matter how harmonious their relationship is today, after today—
They're still rivals!
So Master An really didn't want the day to end like this, since it was rare to meet someone who was so compatible with him.
"I'm fine with anything." Lee Doo-hwan smiled.
He was, after all, on a mission. Since the mission was called the Hongmen Banquet of the Three Star Hall, all of the other party's demands were naturally included in it.
There's no danger to my life anyway, so what's there to be afraid of?!
"Shall we go play some baseball?"
Sect Leader An suggested.
"Okay!" Lee Doo-hwan nodded.
"Alright, let's go play baseball!" Master An grinned and took out his phone to hail a taxi.
Since Lee Sang-hyeok needed to go back, he took a taxi and left first.
Thinking about the baseball bat needed for playing baseball, Lee Doo-hwan sent a message to the small center.
Ask the other party to bring you the baseball bat.
This made the mid-laner incredibly nervous!
After all, if they were at the base, and Lee Doo-hwan picked up a baseball bat, he might not be the unlucky one.
But if I were to hand him the baseball bat, it seems like I'd be the only one left to suffer!
But there was no other way. The thought of being doomed if he didn't deliver the update made him grab Lee Doo-hwan's baseball bat, run out of the base as fast as he could, hail a taxi, and head to the location Lee Doo-hwan had sent him.
It has to be said that the mid laner is indeed very sensible.
When Lee Doo-hwan and the others arrived at the baseball field, this kid also arrived just in time; his efficiency goes without saying.
Looking at Master Ahn carrying a baseball bat, and then at Lee Doo-hwan standing next to Master Ahn, waiting for him to hand him the baseball bat, the mid-laner felt his legs start to tremble.
What's going on? How did Brother Dou Huan and Master An get together?
And why did he ask me to bring him a baseball bat?
Stealing a glance at Master Ahn and then at Lee Doo-hwan, the mid-laner suddenly had a bad feeling.
Could it be—
Are they going to throw me in a mixed doubles match?!
Although I know that I need to be beaten to become a star—
But we can't just endure this!
The nervous mid-laner, Lee Joo-hyun, didn't dare to look up after handing the baseball bat to Lee Doo-hwan, his heart pounding wildly.
Only after Lee Doo-hwan said, "Go back and continue training," did the mid-laner finally breathe a sigh of relief.
But for some reason, I had a feeling that I couldn't quite explain!
On their way to the stadium, Lee Doo-hwan and Ahn stood side by side.
Both men were holding baseball bats, and they were followed by a large number of their underlings.
At first glance, he really does have the air of a gangster boss!
Looking at Lee Doo-hwan holding the baseball bat, Master Ahn felt a strange mix of emotions.
If we weren't on opposing sides —
Could they become good friends?
For some reason, at this moment, Master An suddenly thought of a question that had been trending online recently!
If parallel universes really exist, what would you be like in that universe?
If parallel universes truly exist—
In that other world, maybe I've already become friends with Lee Doo-hwan!
Thinking of this, Sect Leader An couldn't help but smile.
"Chanyoung, what are you laughing at?"
Upon hearing Lee Doo-hwan's question, Master Ahn gave him a deep look before saying, "Doo-hwan, I didn't expect you to like baseball too!"
Upon hearing this, Lee Doo-hwan spoke his mind, saying, "Chan-young, actually I don't know how to play baseball. This baseball bat of mine is mainly for other purposes."
"No way?" Sect Leader An took a deep breath, his eyes shining even more brightly.
because----
"Don't laugh at me, but actually I don't know either—"
"Really?"
Master An's words clearly startled Lee Doo-hwan!
The esteemed CEO of Samsung, Ahn, can't even play baseball?!
You should know that Ambition's baseball bat is definitely one of the most unique horror stories in LCK!
But to my surprise, the other person doesn't know how to play baseball!
However, Lee Doo-hwan quickly came to terms with it in an instant.
after all----
I'm the same way!!!
and----
"Who says you can't own a baseball bat if you can't play baseball?!"
Who says you have to use a baseball bat to play baseball?!
Lee Doo-hwan's sudden words made Master Ahn's eyes light up.
These two sentences may seem a bit awkward at first glance, but upon closer examination, they make more and more sense!
! !
"Lee Doo-hwan, I've suddenly developed a crush on you!"
"Then I'm truly fortunate," Lee Doo-hwan smiled, then said, "However, my orientation is perfectly normal, so you're destined to be disappointed!!"
"snort!"
Faced with Lee Doo-hwan's teasing, Sect Leader Ahn snorted coldly, "I was just saying that casually, don't get too cocky."
Even after today, we will still be rivals!
After saying that, Sect Leader An, who had been looking solemn, also displayed his top-notch face-changing skills and instantly revealed a smile.
"Of course, today isn't over yet, so we're still friends—"
Master An emphasized the word "friend" very softly, as if he too was regretting the day that was about to end.
Upon arriving at the baseball field, although neither of them knew how to play baseball, they were already there, and the baseball bats had been delivered, so they were determined to give it a try.
"How about we try something different?" Lee Doo-hwan suggested.
"What's different!"
"Let's place an apple some distance away and see who can hit it the fastest, how about a contest?!"
"OK!"
Sect Leader An wasn't going to spoil the mood and agreed on the spot.
However, a new problem arose—
"But where can we put it? There's no support or anything like that here!"
After thinking it over, Master An had a flash of inspiration and picked up the apple, placing it on his head.
"How about this!"
"Chanyoung hyung, this absolutely won't do!" Clid quickly spoke up upon seeing this, wanting to show his loyalty.
"That's too dangerous! What if you get hurt?"
"Taemin, you're right!"
Since you care about me so much, why don't you take this apple, put it on your head, and stand there?
Clid: "————"
He wanted to refuse, but when he saw the fierce look on Master An's face, he forcibly swallowed back the words that were already on the tip of his tongue.
After all, if they didn't agree, Master An would definitely put on a show on the spot, saying that you don't necessarily have to use a baseball bat to hit a baseball!
And so, under Master An's arrangement, Clid became the target, while Ruler became the ball-collecting boy.
(Bosses, don't think this is going too far; you can look into what this guy did!)
After a light workout, the pleasant day was drawing to a close.
Of course, it was quite pleasant for Lee Doo-hwan and Master Ahn, but as for Clid, that remains to be seen.
"Looks like we're still evenly matched!"
On the way out of the stadium, Master An sighed.
Unfortunately, for someone who can only hit people with a baseball bat but not hit a ball, that kind of game is too difficult.
"That day will come," Lee Doo-hwan said.
Upon hearing this, Sect Leader An also showed a solemn expression.
"I look forward to that day!"
Once off the field, the two teams went their separate ways.
On the way back to the base, Lee Doo-hwan finally received a notification from the system.
"Ding! Congratulations, host!"
-
Successfully completed the "Hongmen Banquet at Samsung Hall" mission!
[Unexpectedly, the Three Star Hall was really up to no good, secretly setting up many ambushes. Fortunately, the host is wise and resourceful, and thus escaped a disaster. He truly deserves to be called a born Daoist!]
Congratulations, host, you have successfully obtained the reward: Hundred Steps Piercing Yang!
This will greatly improve the host's marksmanship accuracy!!!
Hearing about the rewards from the system, even Lee Doo-hwan, who already knew the system's nature, almost couldn't hold back.
However, the dog system is absolutely right about one thing —
He was indeed wise, brave, and incredibly handsome.
However, this reward—
Lee Doo-hwan took another look.
He felt that the skill of hitting a target from a hundred paces away was not just about improving marksmanship accuracy.
perhaps----
There might be other clever uses as well!
