Happy

Happy (兴欣, Xìng xīn) is an eSports team that debuted during the qualifiers of Season 9 and entered the Glory Professional Alliance in Season 10. The team's playstyle consists of playing more aggressively when they are attacked. This playstyle became a conditioned response to the players as they will seek every opportunity to kill the opponent.

History
When Chen Guo finds out that Ye Xiu is Ye Qiu, Happy is formed. Although it is informal, at first, Ye Xiu is appointed Captain of the team. Tang Rou becomes the second member of the team after Chen Guo tells her to focus on Glory.

For the first time in Glory history, Guild Happy, a newly-established guild, rivals the elite guilds backed by professional teams. Due to the fame of Ye Xiu’s Lord Grim and the pro-level skill of Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng, the guild has a strong control of the dungeon record clears.

Sometime after entering the Heavenly Domain, Ye Xiu runs into Wei Chen due to a bounty placed on him. After a few altercations, Wei Chen is invited by Ye Xiu to join Happy with the goal of winning the Championships.

The next member to join, An Wenyi, is noticed by Ye Xiu during his infiltration of Tyrannical Ambition. After much convincing, he confirms that he is interested in joining them. Chen Guo forms a QQ group where Bao Rongxing and Luo Ji are invited to the chat and the team. They both accept with Bao Rongxing instantly buying a ticket to H City where the group is located.

After Season 8 ends, Qiao Yifan joins them due to his contract expiring. He packs his bags and heads to H City to begin his professional career as a Ghostblade.

Mo Fan, who originally did not want to join, is targeted by Ye Xiu and the group as well as from the likes of Heavenly Sword and Tyranny. Not wanting to be killed anymore, he agrees to join Happy.

In the online stage of the Challenger's League, Happy meets Worldwide Insomnia in the first round and defeated them easily. Next, they face the relegated pro team Everlasting and defeat them as well. Throughout the online stage, they meet player teams and beat them with ease. In the last round, they defeat a player team called Team Crack.

During a party that is hosted by Lou Guanning, Ye Xiu runs into an old enemy, Sun Zheping, who injured himself during Season 5. Ye Xiu invites him to join Happy and he agrees, but only for the Challengers League.

In the offline stage of the Challengers League, Happy are placed in Group B, alongside Mysterious Fantasy, Ten Steps One Kill, Trader and Cloud Pavillion. They lose to Trader 3:7 in the Group Stage, whilst defeating Mysterious Fantasy 10:0, and Ten Steps One Kill and Cloud Pavillion 9:1.

In the Challenger's League playoffs, they defeat Scorching Fields in the Quarterfinals, and Jade Dynasty in the Semifinals. In the Finals, they defeat Excellent Era 2:1 and qualified for Season 10 of the Glory Professional Alliance.

When they win the Season 9 Qualifiers, Su Mucheng (along with Dancing Rain who cost them 450,000 RMB) joins them. After this time, Sun Zheping leaves Happy and joins Heavenly Sword.

Halfway through July, Fang Rui expressed his desire to leave Wind Howl, and Zhao Yang announced his retirement. When Chen Guo asks Ye Xiu if they are going to ask Fang Rui to join, he said no as his salary of 6.5 million RMB as well as the price of 12 million RMB for Doubtful Demon would be too high a cost. Happy acquires the Qi Master account Boundless Sea from Seaside for the low price of 5.5 million RMB, as Ye Xiu predicts that no other team would want the account and that Seaside would not be able to afford continue funding it. One day later, Happy announced that they had upgraded Boundless Sea's weapon, Mirror Month, to Level 75, a feat that Seaside was unable to accomplish for 6 months.

Ye Xiu began to search for potential Qi Master players. Meanwhile, Chen Guo wonders who would be the one to control Boundless Sea, and Wei Chen mentions how Wu Xuefeng was once Ye Xiu's partner. He shows her a recording of Excellent Era's match against Royal Style and was wondering if Wu Xuefeng would join the team. Ye Xiu first approached former Excellent Era teammate Guo Yang. However, Guo Yang looks down on Happy and he flatly rejected them and told them to go look for Song Xiao. Ye Xiu did not approach Song Xiao as he knows that he has a stable position in his team, Blue Rain. He decided to consider other Qi Master players, namely Heavenly Sword's Ning Yuan, Parade's Zhao Bin and Radiant's Sun Haowen. However, Ye Xiu ultimately approached Huang Shaotian to ask for Song Xiao. Song Xiao did not want to leave Blue Rain as he did not want to have any regrets. Finally, Ye Xiu approached Fang Rui, telling him to switch class to a Qi Master. Fang Rui was hesitant, thinking it would be a joke. However, when he realized that Happy's characters had a minimum of 5400 skill points, he was shocked, as his Doubtful Demon only had 5355. He then traveled to Happy Internet Cafe to duel the members using Boundless Sea. Although he initially did not have Happy in his sights, he agrees to join them after witnessing the strength and the potential of Happy. Ye Xiu tells him that they had no money, and tries to convince Fang Rui to join for 650,000 RMB. Chen Guo asks for 3 million RMB, and the deal was finalized and Fang Rui joined Happy at 4 million RMB.

During the regular season, they placed in 6th place. Ye Xiu only participated in the individual competition and for some of the matches so he rested and prepared for the playoffs.

In the playoffs, they faced Blue Rain and advance to play Tyranny. After they defeated Tyranny, they play against Samsara. They defeated Samsara to become the first team to win the Championship in their debut season into the Alliance.

After the finals, Ye Xiu and Wei Chen retire. Su Mucheng is appointed as the captain, and Fang Rui is appointed as vice-captain.
