"call!"

After completing a day's training, Hao Ren let out a long breath and immediately felt relaxed.

He only needs 30 more skill points to pay off his loan.

Once the loan is paid off, you can start taking out new loans!

Looking up at the blue sky, the future truly seems bright!

Ok……

Thinking about this, Hao Ren hesitated.

How about we do some extra training tonight and pay off the loan in one go?

After careful consideration, Hao Ren ultimately gave up.

Tomorrow is match day, so let's save our energy first.

30 points of proficiency isn't much; we can practice more to improve it after the competition tomorrow!

……

"I've already spoken to him."

Looking at Hao Ren, who was panting heavily on the training field, Rangnick showed a look of satisfaction.

"You spoke to him? What did you say?"

"It's nothing, just emphasizing some disciplinary issues. Goodman is quick to understand, he should be able to correct it soon."

Rangnick nodded slowly: "He'll feel the pain soon. Actually, today's training session was quite effective. Look at him now, he must be in a lot of pain inside."

"..."

Almas was somewhat speechless: "So Ralf, you still can't forget that post-match interview? There's no need for that. He just likes to talk the talk, and you don't need to take it seriously."

"The fact that he can say those things means that he hasn't reached his peak training efficiency yet."

"Furthermore, our reforms should also begin."

Almas stood next to Rangnick while they were chatting.

At such close range, Almas seemed to be able to clearly feel the aura emanating from Rangnick.

It was a terrifying aura built from desire and ambition!

After a five-game winning streak, Rangnick's position as manager was secured.

And the Germans will begin to slowly reveal their ambitions starting today!

……

On the evening of October 6th local time, the 9th round of the German Second Division, RB Leipzig vs Heidenheim, officially kicked off.

The timing of this match was a bit unfriendly to Chinese fans, but Wang Chao's live stream still attracted a large number of viewers.

Hao Ren was punished by Rangnick and did not play in the last game, which made many Chinese fans eager to see him play!

"Damn, I'm finally on the roster. Even though I'm not starting today, it's alright. As long as I get to play, that's good enough."

So the League of Legends patch update was the culprit behind Leipzig's losing streak? Wow, it really is League of Legends!

It seems the punishment isn't over yet; Hao Ren isn't in the starting lineup today.

[Look at the starting lineup, Rangnick is probably going to pull some crazy stunts again. I feel like Leipzig can't keep winning streaks; Rangnick gets too cocky after a winning streak, he's way too confident.]

[Leipzig seems to be in a tough spot in this match. Hao has been playing League of Legends like crazy lately, trying to reach Master rank. He still has two promotion matches left on his account.]

"Master Qualifying Tournament... Haha! Yeah, I watched Hao Ren's stream too. How should I put it, I feel like it'll have an impact, so guys, we can play it safe today."

"However, I still have faith in Leipzig."

"..."

"Holy crap, why?!"

Seeing the score of "0:2" displayed on the screen, Wang Chao immediately panicked.

"Why did Rangnick use the 4141? The previous 433 had no problems at all!"

"No way, Rangnick isn't still thinking about reforms, is he? This is fucking outrageous!"

The live stream was filled with insults, all condemning Rangnick.

The Leipzig fans at the stadium were a little more patient with Rangnick, but at this point they still couldn't quite understand the team's manager's actions.

Heidenheim isn't a particularly strong opponent, and Leipzig only needs to play the same form they did in previous matches to win.

Why did Ralf change formation at this time?

"..."

Rangnick sat on the bench, watching the players running on the field, silent.

His intentions were good; he wanted to correct all the team's current problems at once.

However, Rangnick was a bit too hasty, and he seemed to overestimate the abilities of the Leipzig players!

"gentlemen."

"teacher!"

A voice came from behind him. Rangnick turned around and saw Hao Ren calling his name.

"Can I warm up now?"

"..."

Rangnick sighed. "Get ready to go on."

"..."

In the 62nd minute of the second half, Hao Ren, whom Chinese fans had been eagerly anticipating, finally came on the field.

"Brothers, you're finally here!"

"But there are only 30 minutes left, and I feel like this game won't be easy to win."

"Heidenheim is attacking down the wing again. They've already scored two goals, do they want to keep scoring?"

"This could be Leipzig's chance!"

Snapped!

A pass from Heidenheim's backfield.

The long pass reached Reinhardt, who was making his run down the wing.

Kimmich quickly moved closer and formed a one-on-one defense against Reinhardt.

Seeing that Kimmich was in a good position, Reinhardt decisively abandoned the idea of ​​dribbling past him and passed the ball to Niederlechner, who was running past him.

Hao Ren had already arrived at this time.

"Watch out, he might block your way!"

The one who made the call was Heidenheim's coach, who had done extensive research on Hao Ren, the Red Bull's rising star!

Reminded by his coach, Niederlechner decisively pulled the ball to his feet, denying Hao Ren any room to maneuver.

Confident in his physical prowess, Niederlechner wasn't in a hurry to pass the ball; instead, he wanted to draw Hao Ren over first.

Hao Ren was still on his way.

"Hao Ren, what do you want!"

"I'm going to fall!"

boom!

"Holy crap, that's awesome!"

A crisp sound rang out as Hao Ren, who had fallen to his side, knocked Niederlechner and the ball flying.

"Oh!!!!"

"Is Hao Qiuwang really that violent?!"

Wang Chao watched in amazement: "I don't think I saw Hao Ren make any tackles last season. Is he finally willing to give it his all this season with more playing time?!"

"Huff, huff!"

Hao Ren quickly adjusted his breathing, and the familiar mechanical voice of the system echoed in his mind.

This tackle template is indeed useful; it's violent and decisive, perfectly matching my style.

The downside is...

"Beep!!!"

Niederlechner remained on the ground, and the referee had to temporarily stop the match.

Heidenheim's team doctor has entered the field!

While Niederlechner was being examined, Reinhardt came over to cause trouble for Hao Ren.

Kimmich and Poulsen rushed over, and Poulsen immediately pushed away the troublemaking opposing player.

Kimmich stood next to Hao Ren, looking at Niederlechner lying on the ground in pain.

"Good, are you really that cruel?"

"...I didn't foul, he's just too fragile."

"..."

Kimmich swallowed hard. "Okay, I misunderstood you. You were just joking when you tackled me."

"Of course! No, Chicken Bro, you don't need to doubt me. Dude, I was definitely very careful when I shoveled you."

"..."
