Jungkook was an apprentice personally taught by SeokJin. He was naturally very aware of Jungkook's strength. If Jungkook continued to play professionally then he would definitely become a world-class sniper.

It was just that Jungkook was young and regarded feelings and loyalty as more important than his career. He didn't want to go to another team to fight against ACE and he didn't want to kill his old teammates on the field. In his heart, ACE was his master's hard work and his home. Therefore, the stubborn teenager simply changed his profession and became a streamer.

For people who played games well, being a professional streamer was indeed a good alternative to being an e-sports professional player.

Namjoon said regretfully, "In fact, we also feel very sorry for Jungkook. He was so young at the time and offended a group of people. The contract he signed with the Zing Network was very harsh and the share he received was pitifully low. Even so, he gritted his teeth and survived. He streamed night and day and in just one year, he became the most popular streamer on the entire network. He signed a new contract with the platform and his treatment became much better."

Yoongi added, "He won the number one streamer at the Annual Streamer Festival and publicly stated in an interview that all his skills were taught by you, God Wing. He praised you fiercely and said you are the player he admires the most."

SeokJin listened to the words of his teammates and had mixed feelings.

After not seeing each other for so many years, his little apprentice had become the number one brother in the streamer industry and had very high popularity.

A streamer's life was much more comfortable than that of a professional player. In particular, the top streamers not only had high income but their time was very free.

It wasn't easy for Jungkook to get to this point. Would he give up his current relaxed and superior lifestyle to become a professional player again?

Professional players had to spend a lot of time every day, repeatedly practicing moving and shooting. It was monotonous and boring. They also had to bear a huge psychological pressure during the game and would be scolded when they lost... was Jungkook willing?

SeokJin wasn't certain in his heart.

Yoongi seemed to see through SeokJin's thoughts and said with a smile, "Jin hyung, don't worry. Kookie has always admired you. You just have to speak and he will immediately come to the national team."

SeokJin shook his head. "I can't put pressure on him as his master and force him to come back. He is already an adult and his life should be decided by himself."

Yoongi was surprised. "You mean, you don't want to look for him directly?"

SeokJin calmly said, "I will give him a chance. The Rising Star Cup Challenge in March next year is a public event supervised by the national team. If he wants to be a professional player, he can participate in it and be selected for the national team. If he doesn't want to, we won't force him. Do you understand what I mean?"

The three of them looked at each other and nodded in understanding. "Understood."

Jungkook ruined his career for ACE and had to start from scratch. He was now a top streamer and they couldn't morally kidnap him by saying something like 'Your master has come back to be the coach. You must also come back as a professional player.' This was too unfair to Jungkook.

Jin hyung was right.

He was an adult. Give him the right to choose and let him decide for himself.

SeokJin instructed, "Don't tell him that I have become the coach of the national team. I will secretly approach him and learn about his strength and thoughts. The requirements of professional players and game streamers aren't the same at all. He has abandoned training for a long time and now he might not be able to withstand the pressure of the competition."
