"There are also many tricks in the field that you don't seem to know about. That is why I think you are in need of the most training," Dad Cat said as he pressed his knuckles onto the table. "Much of your skill is learned from Moonlight, but some things that are suitable for him are not suitable for you. I need to train Kitty anyway, so I don't mind taking you on too."

"I'll be making things a bit more bothersome for you, so I will try my best to pay attention," Lu Li agreed; he had no intention of refusing.

"I am very strict," Cat Dad joked in an angry tone. But, in the end, he couldn't hold back his smile and everyone started laughing.

"I plan to advertise in the World Announcements that we are recruiting potential students to join the guild. After the youth training camp is set up, you will have to work hard," Square Root 3 said.

"Pft, I won't be tired. Coaches that are tired after coaching aren't very good coaches," Cat Dad responded proudly.

"Do you have any friends that can help you?" Square Root 3 asked with a grin.

As the saying goes, 'an old man holds a wealth of wisdom.' Square Root 3 hoped that someone like Cat Dad, who had been involved in gaming for so long, would be able to help establish the foundations of the club. What he coveted most about him were the 20 years of experience he had accumulated in this field – experience in coaching, sparring, psychological counselling, guild management, equipment designers, business and so on.

"Well, I know a couple of old guys. I'll ask them, but don't get your hopes up. I haven't worked with them for years," Cat Dad answered humbly. He didn't want to make a promise that he couldn't keep.

After this, they decided to go to Jiangnan City to buy some equipment together.

The device they were after would replicate a setting within the game, and was almost like a server. It had important functions, like editing maps and recreating virtual scenes.

Training activities were often completed through the interactions between this server and the game.

The shopping mall's representative recommended the best to them, which would cost more than 5.4 million dollars. He also gave an exaggerated account of the functions that this server had.

Fortunately, they had gone with Cat Dad.

After hearing this, he fiercely said, "This is a rip off."

Cat Dad must have gone through a rebellious period when he was younger; he had numerous tattoos on his arm. He also seemed to exercise regularly, as his arms were thicker than the representative's thighs.

The shopping representative's face darkened, thinking that he had run into a gang member. He dared not to respond and was planning to call the security guard.

"Get your boss; it's been a while," Cat Dad said with a sneer and sat on a couch as he waited.

Before long, the boss came out.

The moment the boss saw him, he immediately rushed over and gave him a hug.

"Wow, how do you have time to visit? Normally you're with your wife and daughter, and you always cater to them. You're almost like their maid."

"Please stop," Cat Dad complained. "Can't you see there are these young people with me? Can't you be a bit more polite?"

Seeing that the Cat Dad and the boss was were close, the shopping representative was a bit embarrassed. He saw that they were eager customers, so he had suggested a luxury product that would get him a high commission.

"You wouldn't spend your free time here. Surely there must be a reason you're here?" the boss asked as he glanced at Lu Li and Square Root 3.

"We're looking to buy training equipment to train players for a guild. Do you have any recommendations? You can forget about that 5-million-dollar one," Cat Dad explained, but left out that they were setting up a youth training camp.

"Come on; don't taunt your old friend. Have a look at this one," the boss suggested as he gave the shopping representative a look.

The five-million-dollar server was purely for new generation rookies. To offer a product like this to Cat Dad was already quite insulting, so it was good that he wasn't angry.

"What new guild has appeared in Jiangnan City?" the boss asked. He didn't seem to care for Lu Li and Square Root 3.

"It's just a small guild – not really worth mentioning. Have you heard of Ruling Sword?" Cat Dad casually asked while testing the equipment.

Ruling Sword!

The boss was dumbfounded.

"Oh, so those two…" the boss was a little embarrassed.

It wasn't that he looked down on Lu Li and Square Root 3, but that he noticed that they were in the younger generation. Seeing as he and Dad Cat were from the same generation, he didn't really want to talk to them.

If he hadn't heard Cat Dad's voice, he wouldn't have come out.

"This is Ruling Sword's Square Root 3…" Cat Dad introduced.

"President Square Root 3," the Boss smiled, knowing that this was an important customer. He then eagerly looked at Lu Li.

"This is Lu Li…"

"I've seen you in competitions. You're absolutely amazing. I play Thief as well," the boss gushed as he grabbed Lu Li's hand and shook it. It was almost impossible to meet Lu Li in game, but he didn't expect to meet him in real life.

"Nice meeting you," Lu Li responded casually.

He never thought that he would be worshipped by people. Because of his previous life, he had grown accustomed to being ignored, so the enthusiasm that the boss showed made him a bit uncomfortable.

Cat Dad had come here because he knew that he wouldn't be ripped off, given their many years of friendship. The boss was also very friendly towards Ruling Sword.

In the end, they purchased a top-level training server that was appropriate for Ruling Sword. It cost 1.4 million dollars, which included free delivery, installation and maintenance.

The two biggest costs were this server and the videos purchased for analysis and training. Lu Li couldn't help but feel the sting of spending so much so quickly.

However, it seemed like spending this kind of money was something that was going to happen more often in future.

Fortunately, he was no longer burdened by his sister's condition. The money he borrowed from Water Fairy was still there; that was a special fund for his sister's recovery process.

The next day, Lu Li entered the game and announced the good news. The club's training schedule was quickly specified, and in addition, Cat Dad also introduced a special system.

The members of the guild would also have a chance of joining the youth training program and train with them.

To the ordinary players, this was a good goal to strive towards and was very well received.

In fact, these were Cat Dad's exact words: "Since finding a sparring partner is difficult, why not find one in the guild?"

After the announcements, Lu Li's life would finally go back to normal. He was back to playing in competitions, levelling up, training his Engineering and receiving some basic training from Cat Dad.
