In Season 7, Sun Xiang stepped onstage for the first time and immediately received widespread attention. Even though he came from a weak team like Conquering Clouds, his performance was exceptional, breaking through the rookie wall and easily collecting the Best Rookie award.
At that time, "prodigy,""the star of hope," all sorts of extravagant praise rained down upon him. Sun Xiang very quickly became pleased and satisfied by all this.
Amidst all of this, there was much commentary about how if Sun Xiang weren't held back by the rest of his team, or if he had a top god-level character, then perhaps Sun Xiang would have had even better results in his first season, or even made history.
Sun Xiang deeply appreciated this kind of talk. He also felt that his abilities hadn't reached their full potential, and that he needed a bigger space to shine.
He needed a better team, and he needed a top-notch character.
