Ye Lingchen's words shocked both Principal Shen and President Zhang.

Was he arrogant, ignorant, or overconfident?

Basketball was a ball sport, and in addition to individual skill, there was added emphasis on teamwork. Therefore, regular training was essential, and as an athlete, a perfect physique needed to be maintained. Both the athlete's exercise and diet must be strictly controlled!

However, Ye Lingchen was not prepared to join in any of the basketball association's activities and was only interested to participate in games!

Could that even be considered 'joining the basketball association'?

President Zhang opened his mouth but was momentarily unsure as to what he should say.

"You're talented, Ye Lingchen. It's good for young people to have self-confidence, but they can't be too overconfident. If you don't have the time, it's still okay if you attend training a few times a week. It's good to build rapport with your team members." Principal Shen was prepared to meet halfway for the two of them.

"President Shen and President Zhang, I really don't have the time. I'll go to the basketball association when I'm free, but my freedom can't be limited. If this can't be agreed on, there's no way I can join." Ye Lingchen shook his head. His expression remained indifferent from the beginning until the end, but his tone was very firm.

"Your skills are very good. You nearly carried the entire team in the inter-university basketball competition. But that's only an inter-university competition. Our association will compete with the rest of the world!" President Zhang's voice was solemn. "Do you know where China's basketball rank in terms of caliber? We count from the bottom up! Without even mentioning those countries in Europe and America, we're not even as good as the Sun Nation! "

"Where do you get your confidence that you can skip training? Do you think you can win if you face other countries?"

"If President Zhang doesn't believe that I can win, then why come to me?" Ye Lingchen's eyes looked directly at President Zhang. The intense glimmer in his eyes caused Chairman Zhang's eyes to feel a slight tingling. "I guarantee I can win. Do you believe me?"

Silence.

Both President Zhang and Principal Shen could feel the aura emanating from Ye Lingchen's body. It was like a sharp ray of light that seemed capable of piercing through everything!

"I'll consider your proposal, and I hope you'll reconsider too."

President Zhang finally relented!

He looked at Ye Lingchen and sighed, "I'll come looking for you again."

Ye Lingchen's talent was too good that he really could not bear to just give up on him.

Ring ding ding!

Ye Lingchen's cellphone rang as soon as he walked out of the principal's office.

The caller ID was Song Qian.

It was obviously an urgent matter if he called at that time.

"Hello, Director Song."

"Y-God, I have bad news. I hope you've prepared yourself for this." Over the phone, Song Qian's voice was so solemn that it made it clear he was not in a good mood.

"Tell me."

"We just received a directive from above." Song Qian paused for a few seconds, likely to try and restructure his sentence, "It's a request to shut out your live stream!"

"From above? Is it from the TV Bureau?" Ye Lingchen's voice was extremely calm as if it was nothing disconcerting. "Oh, if they want to shut it, then let them shut it."

"Y-God, aren't you angry?" Song Qian was surprised.

In all honesty, he was fuming beyond compare after receiving that news. He even thought of finding someone to vent it all out.

"It's normal. The crimes in The Ten Deadly Sins are too bloody and violent, and some crimes are not suitable for the public. The TV Bureau is right to ban its broadcast." Ye Lingchen then continued indifferently, "We have to respond to the country's call. It's good enough that they banned my live stream instead of banning me. "

In addition to the recent craze over the Ys, The Ten Deadly Sins would surely bring about a lot of negative effects.

"This, this…"

Song Qian was startled by Ye Lingchen's acknowledgment. A banned live stream was a great loss to the host's popularity and money. Any other person would find it unbearable to be in that position and would at least utter a couple of profanities. Ye Lingchen however, was just so calm!

Ye Lingchen was worthy of being the successor of socialism! Song Qian suddenly felt ashamed.

"Y-God, I'll try my best to help you, but I hope you can make preparations and come up with more high-quality work as soon as possible," Song Qian spoke to Ye Lingchen again before hanging up.

It's good to be banned, just for a while.

Ye Lingchen smiled indifferently.

However, he also kept an eye on it. He logged in to the live stream with his mobile phone and took out all the money he had earned since from it.

Since the live stream had been banned, he had no idea if the money would be blocked as well.

The total was RMB53,865.04.

It was already quite amazing that he made so much money in less than two months. Ye Lingchen was known to spend very little time to do his daily live streams and would ask for leave from time to time. If that were not the case, he would have earned even more.

He was Huyu's bringer of wealth.

However, judging from the value of Grave Robber's Chronicles and The Ten Deadly Sins, half a million was not considered much.

After Song Qian hung up, someone ran over to him and hurriedly said, "Director Song, CEO Wang requested your presence at the meeting room now."

"Okay!"

Song Qian nodded and could already predict the possible contents of the meeting. He then hurried to the conference room.

Many high-level Huyu members were already present in the conference room. Wang Yuan, Zhou Min, and Si Yu were all there as well.

Wang Yuan only spoke up when Song Qian arrived. "Everyone is probably already aware that Y-God's live stream has been banned. What's your opinion on this?"

"CEO Wang, I think this is the time for us to support Y-God even more. If we continue to promote him, he will be grateful!" Song Qian said immediately and added, "If we can just find a way to set aside this ban directive and ban only The Ten Deadly Sins instead of the live stream itself, that'll be the best!"

"Hey, hey, are you nuts, Song Qian?" Zhou Min snickered. "You want to continue promoting Y-God? Why should we even get him on board with us? What privilege does he have that we must ingratiate him?"

"It's even more ridiculous to try and quash the ban directive! Do you know how much it will cost us?"

"CEO Wang, talent is the most important. Y-God's potential can shoulder that!" Song Qian continued to persuade.

"Song Qian, I don't agree with you!" Another bald man spoke up. "Y-God has only spent two months live streaming in our studio. We can't even consider him one of us. We should not waste too much on him."

"I agree," another senior member chimed in. "Y-God definitely has what it takes, considering his ability to create Grave Robber's Chronicles and The Ten Deadly Sins, but this kind of work fluctuates greatly and often needs inspiration! Will Y-God's next creation be a hit as well? We can't bet on it!"

"But…"

"Alright, that's enough!" CEO Wang immediately interjected. "Half of the copyright for Grave Robber's Chronicles is in our hands and we are in a position to call the shots. Y-God's live stream is banned, so he has no value at all. There's no further need to discuss this matter!" …
