Football: A late bloomer, starting with Leicester City

Chapter 88 New Epic Skill, Ranieri’s Gaze (please vote for me)

At the post-match press conference.

Ranieri and Chen Yufeng sat here and were interviewed by reporters.

"Another incredible winning streak, Leicester City have been in such good shape lately."

The reporters quickly started asking questions, directed at Ranieri: "Can we change the goal for the team now?"

"Ha ha ha ha."

As soon as the words fell, the reporters at the scene burst into laughter. Everyone knew what they were joking about.

"No." Ranieri shook his head and smiled, and then said seriously: "Of course I will not deny the team's excellent state and the players' performance."

"They played an incredible performance and did an excellent job in all aspects. The atmosphere and cohesion within the team are the best."

At this point, Ranieri stretched out four fingers again and repeated his wise words: "But we set a goal before the season, forty points. We must first ensure that we get this score."

"Now, we have 36 points. It looks very close, but it is not enough."

"We all know that our next opponents are Chelsea, Everton, Liverpool and Manchester City."

Ranieri showed a grimace, "None of them are easy to beat. It's always difficult to score from them."

"I am always unwilling to give the team too long-term goals. In my opinion, we must first ensure [-] points."

After these words fell, the reporters in the audience were immediately speechless, and the scene fell into a long immersion.

It wasn't until a long time later that someone asked Chen Yufeng: "Very good substitute performance. So far, you have scored eight goals and eight assists this season."

"In Mr. Chen Yufeng's opinion, is this your peak season?"

It can be clearly noticed that when they came to the press conference again, the reporters' names for Chen Yufeng changed.

This is different from before.

In many ways, this is what Chen Yufeng has accomplished every game this season. He has won the respect of the media with his performance!
At this time, as the reporter's question ended, reporters from many media organizations felt a sense of surprise.

They vaguely remembered Chen Yufeng, who had good numbers in the first few games and confidently threatened to get a double-double for the season.

He was still very young at that time. Of course, this greenness does not refer to his age or appearance, but just the state, the joy and excitement when he debuted.

And looking back at today, even if there is not yet a double-double, the data of double-eight in fifteen rounds is enough to be amazing.

At this time, will anyone still care nothing about the original speech?
No, Liangshuang was already waving to him right in front of Chen Yufeng!
If he can keep it up, he may even have a chance to enter the best pre-selection of the Premier League season!
"Hahaha, don't make fun of me like this. This is of course the peak season of my career so far. It's okay to even call it the climax of my life."

Chen Yufeng completed the task, his face was certainly good, and he spoke more to the media.

"But it's not the end. This is my debut season, and I just...ahem."

He wanted to make a joke with the media in a very relaxed way, saying that he was 'only' 30 years old and the future belonged to him.

But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them out.

"In short, I always think that I will get better and better as I play more, and this will not be the end."

In the end, Chen Yufeng remained serious and said the last words of his press conference.

On the bus back, Ranieri's voice encouraging the team rang in his ears.

Chen Yufeng naturally couldn't stand listening, and had already entered the system excitedly, ready to reap the rewards.

[One of the primary tasks, scoring eight goals, has been completed. Congratulations to the host for getting an epic skill treasure chest! 】

[It is detected that the host has completed all primary tasks and the system is being upgraded... The upgrade is successful, the system panel and other functions will be more advanced, and the intermediate task system is enabled! 】

"Finally finished."

Chen Yufeng breathed a long sigh of relief and felt very happy.

When he got the assignment early in the season, he thought it would be a tough and protracted battle.

But unexpectedly, the progress was pretty good.

Now, the help of a skill characteristic to him is naturally very huge!
Although he cannot improve his basic attributes, in that specific situation, the ability to obtain that kind of superstar moment also gives him a better chance of establishing himself in the Premier League!

"Intermediate tasks, what are they?"

Chen Yufeng murmured in his heart, and the voice in his mind sounded again.

[Task [-]: Win the Premier League Player of the Month once, task reward, and an epic skill treasure chest. 】

[Task [-]: Help Leicester City win a championship trophy besides the Premier League this season. The task reward is an epic skill treasure chest. 】

[Mission [-]: Help Leicester City win the Premier League championship at least six rounds ahead of schedule. The mission reward is an epic skill treasure chest. 】

[If the host can complete all tasks during the season, he will obtain a legendary skill treasure chest. In addition: not all skills opened in the skill treasure chest are applicable skills, and offensive players may also draw defensive skills. 】

After listening to the first three sentences of the system, Chen Yufeng felt his expectations for this season and his belief in winning in the competition.

After hearing the last sentence, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Doesn't this mean that the treasure chest he obtained from these eight goals has a certain probability of extracting tackle and interception skills?
"Smoke it, it's better than nothing..."

Chen Yufeng comforted himself in his heart, but it did not relieve his tension at all. He gritted his teeth and murmured: "Open the treasure box."

[The epic skill treasure chest has been opened for the host, and new abilities are being extracted for the host. 】【Congratulations to the host for getting Van Persie's volley! 】

As soon as the words in his mind fell, Chen Yufeng breathed a long sigh of relief and suddenly felt an extra muscle memory in his body, as well as some other shooting sensations.

While thanking God, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly.

Fortunately, it wasn't Maguire's carrier turn or anything, but Van Persie's volley.

This is definitely a very top shooting skill. Although it can be used in few scenarios, it often has surprising effects!

Leaving aside other aspects, Van Persie's volley is definitely an ability that is worthy of being recorded in history!
He is the representative figure of these four words, with a unique level!

"It really comes as no surprise. As soon as he scored the volley, it was Van Persie's moment."

Chen Yufeng, who has always been unlucky, couldn't help but feel a bit like a European emperor at this moment, "Open the system panel."

He wanted to see what happened to the system panel after the system upgrade.

[Host’s current ability panel:
Name: Chen Yufeng
Height: 183
Age: 30
Player values: Shooting: 66, Passing: 63, Dribbling: 75, Ball sense: 69, Speed: 80, Explosion: 69, Physical fitness: 61, Strength: 65, Coordination: 73, Comprehensive defense: 63.

Overall attributes (not average): 71
Special skills: Beckham's scimitar (legendary), Robin van Persie's volley (epic), Quares's instep (epic). 】

Looking at the many additional functions, Chen Yufeng nodded slightly and then exited the system.

It's probably enough to understand. What should be improved has been improved, and it's time to move on.

In short, with an additional shooting skill, his threat on the court will definitely increase greatly, and he will have more tricks to break the opponent's goal!
"Yu Feng, Yu Feng?"

As if he heard someone calling him, Chen Yufeng turned his head away from the window and took off his headphones at the same time.

He was really anxious just now and didn't want to be seen as abnormal, so he used this behavior to cover up.

"what happened?"

Chen Yufeng asked with a smile when he saw Mahrez waving towards him.

"Seeing that you were wearing headphones, we discussed it for a while, and finally agreed that your long-range shot was covered up."

Mahrez waved his hand towards Chen Yufeng, as if he wanted to join forces with other teammates to tease him, a veteran.

"I can't beat it myself just because I'm lucky?"

Chen Yufeng pretended to be dissatisfied and liked to joke with the young players in the team. He pretended to be angry and said, "Do you want to take a gamble with me?"

"what?"

"Within five rounds, if I score another volley, you will give me a massage for a season." Chen Yufeng raised his eyebrows, intending to provoke him.

Of course Mahrez, who is full of energy, will not be timid. "If I lose, will you give me a season?"

"Ohhhh..." The teammates next to them suddenly let out a cry, and they all raised their heads to look at the excitement of the two people, which heightened the atmosphere.

Ranieri also looked back frequently with a smile on his face, seemingly happy to see this kind of alternative motivation within the team.

"Okay."

Chen Yufeng confirmed: "If another one comes in, will you still say that I am fooled?"

"Even if I'm fooled, I still lose."

"No, what I care about most is whether you will accept your defeat or not?"

"Clothes!"

"Okay." Chen Yufeng nodded, turned his head and suppressed a smile.

He believes in himself, or in Van Persie's ability at all times.

Mahrez, this bet obviously came at the wrong time.

"Mahrez, we like you."

Vardy and others gave Mahrez a thumbs-up, intending to encourage him.

"Do you want to participate too? I can come along."

Chen Yufeng raised his head and glared at several people.

"No, no, no."

"Forget it, hehe."

Everyone languished again, as if they didn't want to play this kind of game with Chen Yufeng, who they couldn't figure out.

The bus drove slowly through the port, night had slowly fallen, and the scenery outside the window was very pleasant.

The Leicester City players quarreled with each other at first, but by the end, everyone fell asleep peacefully and seemed a little tired.

Only Ranieri kept his eyes staring out the window and kept moving his head back, as if looking at somewhere.

It seemed to be a ship docking place, with a golden flashing light on it, illuminating the busy people in the port.
