Peak Cristiano Ronaldo from the Start: Ferguson Begs Me Not to Retire

In 2003, Gu Yuan refused to cooperate in match-fixing and was slapped out of the national youth team: “The football team of Xia Country doesn’t need someone as clueless as you!”

Gu Yuan sneered and bound himself to the [Peak Self-Discipline System], fusing with Cristiano Ronaldo’s peak 2008 template from the start!

At a trial with Sporting Lisbon, he broke a top defender’s ribs with a single burst of speed.

Ferguson, watching from the stands, went wild: “Sign him! I’d sell the entire back line to get this kid!”

From then on, world football entered the dark age of Gu Yuan’s dominion.

He gave up sugar, oil, and sex (strikethrough, warning: multiple heroines), becoming the “Green Pitch Ascetic” feared throughout Europe.

Cristiano Ronaldo: “Gu Yuan is my big brother. He’s still practicing free kicks at three in the morning. I just can’t keep up!”

Messi: “His arrival took all the suspense out of the Ballon d’Or.”

When the World Cup arrived, the national youth team coach who had once cast him aside knelt at his door: “Gu Yuan, please come back and save the Xia Country team!”

Gu Yuan: “Get lost. You were the one who said I’d never make it into one of the top five leagues.”
