Chereads / Football legend: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him / Chapter 17 - Chapter 17 Talent Sharing

Chapter 17 - Chapter 17 Talent Sharing

"You scored, you know you scored? This is a hat-trick! You can still complete a hat-trick! You still can!!!" Deng Kai screamed into Ronaldo's ear frenziedly.

At this moment, too many images came to mind.

He had seen Ronaldo sitting on the bench in helpless fury.

He had seen Ronaldo unable to touch the ball after coming on as a substitute, looking helpless.

He had seen Ronaldo's silent rage as he threw things around after being subbed off early.

He had seen Ronaldo kneeling at the side of the pitch, lamenting his inability to keep up with the football.

He had seen Ronaldo's face fill with despair after missing goal after goal.

He witnessed the twilight of a hero.

But he missed the rise of little Ronaldo.

That is a regret for any fan who didn't witness the full rivalry between Mei Luo.

This passion unconsciously infected Ronaldo.

He didn't know why Deng Kai was so excited about his scoring.

Do you have a hat-trick too?

Are you not just an assist for a brace?

He didn't know why he was carrying Deng Kai and running around the field.

He didn't know why the corners of his mouth involuntarily lifted up and he couldn't suppress it.

"Hat-trick! Hat-trick!"

The other players followed Deng Kai and Ronaldo, shouting as they ran.

Seeing this scene, Maxa could no longer deny Deng Kai's excellence. He was conquered by Deng Kai's performance: "He belongs here."

However, the automatic contrarian Trigella once again countered Maxa, pointing to the training field beside them, "No, he doesn't belong here, he belongs there!"

Maxa looked toward that field.

That was the training turf of the U15 team of Sporting Lisbon.

...

"Ding! You have won a match, and your rating for this match is A!"

"Note: The match level was low, the highest rating is A!"

"Reward received: 10 Training Cones, 2 Energy Drinks, 1 Medical Bandage, 2 Blue Fragments"

As expected, it was much less than the rewards for an SSS.

Deng Kai thought about it and used one training cone.

Although the match was over, today's training had just begun.

Even if the intensity wasn't high, the whole training cone was still necessary. Starting now, he was entering triple growth mode.

My apologies to everyone here!

"Ding! Talent higher than your own detected within the team. Would you like to choose Talent Sharing?"

"Talent Sharing: Share your talent with a teammate and enjoy the bonus of the highest talent level in the team. (Talent level temporarily increases by no more than two levels above your current one)"

What kind of good fortune was this?

Deng Kai's eyes lit up.

He turned his head to look at Ronaldo.

Without a doubt.

If you were to ask who on the training field today had a talent level exceeding that of a peerless genius.

There would only be one answer.

"Choose to share!"

Deng Kai was very decisive.

The next moment, a myriad of colorful lights filled his vision.

Exceptional talent was blue.

Peerless genius was purple.

Singular talent was gold.

And colorful was… the unparalleled genius!

Ronaldo's talent was that of an unparalleled genius?

What happened to Ronaldo having no talent?

In fact, many people misunderstand the word "talent."

Height is talent, arm span is talent, football sense is talent, speed is talent, just as calm is talent, pressure resistance is talent, self-discipline is talent, determination is talent, effort is also a talent.

People with average intelligence, if we do not consider that universities enroll proportionally and some families have difficulties with higher education, could all easily get into esteemed universities if they study steadily and well.

But in reality, undergraduates account for less than five percent of the total population in our country, not to mention those from esteemed universities.

Even if we exclude the older generation who had no opportunity for education in their early years, the numbers aren't pretty.

Some people unquestionably have the physical talent.

The problem lies in their mental talent.

Lacking discipline, determination, and a big heart, once they miss a step in their learning process, they can never regain it.

Playing football is a form of education and learning.

There's training and there are tests.

Just looking at physical talent, Ronaldo might not reach the peak of genius.

But combine that with his mental talent, and he's likely one of the most gifted among those geniuses!

The thought of secretly using Ronaldo's talent to enhance his own strength excited Deng Kai.

So, as long as he had teammates with exceptional talent, he could continue to grow at the highest standard!

"Ding! Share failed! Teammate familiarity is below eighty, please increase."

The system's prompt was a wake-up call.

Familiarity?

What the hell!

But it made sense.

After all, it's natural for players who train together often to influence each other; if you're not familiar, why should you train with someone else's talent?

"Coach, I want to be paired with Chris," Deng Kai actively requested to become Ronaldo's training partner.

Coincidentally, the kids here did not really want to train with Ronaldo.

Because Ronaldo's inherent expression is one of coldness and pride.

It's too uncomfortable to be around him.

Maxa agreed to Deng Kai walking into the trap willingly.

After a day's training, Deng Kai looked at his unchanging data and the familiarity that didn't increase much, feeling quite anxious.

If this continued, it would take two to three months to boost the familiarity to eighty.

No wonder so many players need almost half a season to joke and laugh with their teammates after a transfer.

Because they really weren't familiar before.

Day by day this goes... damn!

...

The next day, Deng Kai was not late.

Because today was Lisbon's youth team's activity day.

The youth players would participate in various charitable activities at different locations.

To showcase Lisbon's team culture and educational philosophy to the fans, for instance... street cleaning.

Deng Kai and Ronaldo were sweeping up leaves and trash on the street with brooms.

The team's staff also came over to take photos and videos.

Deng Kai and Ronaldo are currently in the U14, and after this weekend, they would join the U15, training together and participating in the Portuguese U15 league.

This made the U14 players very envious.

Only such advanced players could potentially become key figures nurtured and promoted by the club.

While sweeping, Deng Kai kept up a conversation with Ronaldo.

Ronaldo did not understand, "It seems to me that we aren't familiar enough for me to tell you about the girl I had a crush on in the third grade of primary school."

Deng Kai, "That's why we need to talk, how else will we get to know each other better?"

Ronaldo, "Why do I need to get more familiar with you?"

Deng Kai, "Because for the next year, or even years to come, as the midfield core of the team, and you being the team's leading striker, we need this familiarity."

"Even the best forwards need the ball at their feet to shine, right?"

Ronaldo, "Are you threatening me?"

Deng Kai, "Isn't this a bribe? Once we're familiar with each other, you'll be my first choice for passing the ball. Football is all about human relationships, get it?"

Ronaldo, "Passing is something you should be doing, just as scoring is something I should be doing. If you refuse to pass me the ball over personal issues, the only thing that gets hurt is the team, like yesterday."

Bam!

A football suddenly came from behind.

It hit Ronaldo squarely in the face and knocked him to the ground.

"Yo! Isn't this the super-capable Portuguese Ronaldo from the training field? If you're so good, why didn't you stop that ball?" Andoya led a group of five or six U14 players walking over.

Underneath their mocking smiles was a heart full of jealousy.

Of course, what Ronaldo had just said was the last straw that broke their rationality.
