Before the final exams of the first semester of the first year of high school, Meijiang Middle School received a notice from the Zunyi Municipal Education Bureau, informing Meijiang Middle School of the time and location of the 2006/2007 Zunyi High School Football League finals, and asking Meijiang Middle School to form a team on time to participate in the competition.
If you fail to report on time, your opponent will be considered to have forfeited the game after the draw and will advance directly.
There are 14 districts and counties in Zunyi City. The champions of the high school football championship in each district and county plus the champions and runners-up of the previous season, a total of 16 teams, entered the finals.
Each team is limited to 25 players. They can bring all the players to the bench for each game, but can only make five substitutes at most. This is the same format as the national finals.
Due to the weather and venue conditions during the winter vacation, the city's competition did not have a group stage, but was directly drawn for the knockout stage. Even if the champion was the champion, there would be no more than four games.
The winning team will go to Guiyang during the summer vacation next year to represent Zunyi City in the Guizhou High School Football League finals to decide the champion and the qualification for the national finals.
When the principal Cai Yusen announced this notice to all the members of the Meijiang Middle School football team in the multi-purpose classroom, the football champion system in Lu Wenbin's mind issued a new task to Lu Wenbin.
Task 5: Zunyi City High School Football League Champion.
Mission introduction: The finals of Zunyi City High School Football League are coming soon. 16 high school teams from all over Zunyi will compete for the championship. To qualify for the provincial finals, the host must win the Zunyi City championship.
Mission requirements: Lead the Meijiang Middle School football team to win the 2006/2007 Zunyi City High School Football League Finals Championship.
Success rewards: 50 experience points and 2 skill points.
Although the experience points for successfully completing this mission increased, there were only 2 skill points.
The 2 skill point task rewards, which were the same as those in the county-level competition, proved Lu Wenbin’s guess: the later the upgrade, the harder it is to obtain skill points, and it will not become easier as his strength grows.
The only way out is to join a professional club, play in a professional league, and improve the quality and frequency of games.
In addition to announcing the notice from the Municipal Education Bureau, Principal Cai also announced the school's support for the school team members to play in the city.
The last time we played in the county championship, the players bought the German national team uniforms with their own money as required by the school team.
This time in the city-level competition, they can no longer wear the German team jerseys. Meijiang Middle School paid for two sets of jerseys, shorts, socks, sneakers, wrist guards, shin guards and other complete equipment for the 25 school team members selected by Zhang Minghai.
The jersey also has the player's number, name in pinyin and the logo of Meijiang Middle School printed on it, proving that this is a jersey exclusively for the Meijiang Middle School football team.
Moreover, everyone readjusted the numbers. Lu Wenbin wore the same No. 9 jersey as Ronaldo, representing Lu Wenbin's position as the main striker and core.
When we go to the city to participate in competitions, in addition to the principal Cai Yusen and coach Zhang Minghai, there will also be a life teacher responsible for everyone's logistics, a doctor from the health center who will serve as the team doctor, and so on.
The school obviously attaches much more importance to the competition in the city.
Then, it’s time to prepare for the final exam.
To be honest, after Lu Wenbin obtained the football championship system, he focused his main energy on football.
He believed that he could succeed by playing football, and studying was no longer important to him. No matter what his parents and teachers said, Lu Wenbin responded on the surface, but in his heart he was dismissive.
What's more, compared to those professional players who have been playing football since childhood and have not learned much, he has at least attended high school and should be considered "educated".
Therefore, whether in class or outside of class, Lu Wenbin no longer took studying seriously.
Lu Wenbin, who was only 16 years old, did not have such a high level of concentration. He was like a nouveau riche who suddenly won the first prize of the Double Color Ball and had a feeling of inexhaustible wealth.
Lu Wenbin was the same. He believed that he was destined to be a professional player. He would never spend time learning those book knowledge that gave him a headache.
Perhaps, only when Lu Wenbin tastes the bitterness of lack of culture one day and changes his innermost thoughts, will he repent.
As for the final exam of this semester, Lu Wenbin, who was admitted only because his scores were not high enough and he had to pay a sponsorship fee, and now has the worst study attitude, unsurprisingly ranked last in the class.
If there weren't two hooligans in other classes in the first year of high school who had a worse study attitude and lower scores than him, Lu Wenbin might have been ranked last in the grade.
Even so, when the head teacher Li Gang held the last class meeting and announced the results, he still made some sarcastic remarks about Lu Wenbin.
Although Lu Wenbin did not rank last in the grade, in Li Gang's mind, Lu Wenbin was still the bastard who was the biggest drag on the class.
There is no substantial difference between being last in the grade and being third from the last.
From Li Gang's tone, people like Lu Wenbin are destined to be a burden to society in the future.
Even if Lu Wenbin led the school football team to win the Meitan County High School Football Championship and performed extremely well, it would not change Li Gang's opinion.
Not to mention that in his mind Lu Wenbin playing football is a waste of time and not a proper job. Even if Lu Wenbin really becomes a professional player in the future and can make money by playing football, Li Gang will not take it to heart.
In Li Gang's mind, the overall image of Chinese football, which is plagued by match-fixing, gambling, and refereeing scandals, is quite bad.
In Li Gang's eyes, even the national team members are useless people who smoke, drink, gamble, act like big shots, and do nothing on the court, let alone ordinary professional players.
According to Li Gang, even if Lu Wenbin is really lucky enough to become a professional player and play in the Chinese Super League, he will still be a smoker, drinker, gambler, match-fixer, and big shot in the future. The greater his fame, the worse his influence will be.
Hearing what the head teacher said, Lu Wenbin was quite unconvinced and could not help but retort a few words. He also expressed his ideal of becoming a professional player in the future and playing in the top European leagues.
When Li Gang heard what Lu Wenbin said, he burst into laughter and said, "With you, Lu Wenbin? Not to mention whether a high school student like you who has never been trained in a sports school or a professional team can enter a foreign club, just based on your attitude towards learning, I am sure you will not be successful in the future."
Then, Li Gang, who no longer cared to discuss Lu Wenbin's future, stopped his sarcasm and announced the end of the class meeting and the start of winter vacation.
Li Gang did not explain why Lu Wenbin's attitude towards learning prevented him from succeeding. Neither the 16-year-old Lu Wenbin nor his classmates knew, and no one thought deeply about it.
