Chapter 988: This Difficulty Cannot Stop Me!

These words resonated with the people around, and their attitudes began to shift. One by one, they gradually came to understand Su Luo’s decision to accept punishment.

The angry chants of the fans slowly faded, replaced by silence and reflection.

In the dressing room of Stuttgart Stadium, Su Luo sat quietly in his seat, clutching his jersey.

His eyes were firm, his face unwavering.

The ten-year ban was a massive blow to him, but he refused to wallow in self-pity.

Robert walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and tried to calm him.
"Su Luo, don’t be discouraged. No matter what happens, we’ll face it together," Robert said gently.

Su Luo raised his head and gave him a faint smile.
"Thank you, brother. I know this is a difficult moment, but I won’t be knocked down. I’ll prove my worth with strength and attitude."

Hagen, standing nearby, joined the conversation.
"That’s right! Su Luo, you’ve always been the most resilient and unyielding warrior in our team. This setback will only make you stronger."

Hagen’s words carried confidence and encouragement, a reminder that Su Luo still had unwavering support.

Su Luo gripped the jersey tightly, feeling the fabric between his fingertips.

This jersey wasn’t just personal honor—it carried the hopes of his teammates and the expectations of countless fans.

Thinking of his tireless efforts and dedication, determination surged through him.

He knew that only on the pitch could his true strength speak for itself.

No matter how the outside world judged him, he would rely on his own effort to prove his worth.

"The ten-year ban is just a stage—it won’t break me," Su Luo whispered to himself.

Robert and Hagen met his eyes and immediately recognized the unshakable determination burning within him.

They exchanged glances, silently acknowledging the powerful belief that anchored Su Luo’s heart.

On the Dortmund bench, Su Luo sat with his hands tightly clasped, a gesture that betrayed his inner anxiety and desire.

The match raged on, players running and fighting on the pitch, while he could only sit and watch.

His eyes never left the field. His love for football and his longing to join the battle burned like fire in his chest.

Though he appeared calm, his clenched hands revealed his restlessness.

The suspension felt frustrating and unfair, yet he refused to surrender or pity himself.

Instead, he treated it as a challenge—a test of his strength and resilience.

On the sidelines, fans roared in support of the team. Among them stood a figure that caught everyone’s attention—Su Luo’s girlfriend, Emily.

Wearing a Borussia Dortmund jersey, she jumped and cheered in the stands.

Her admiration for Su Luo’s efforts was written all over her face. She firmly believed that he could overcome any hardship.

Su Luo felt her presence. Turning his head, his eyes met Emily’s across the stadium.

She smiled, silently encouraging him, knowing just how deeply he longed to return to the pitch.

In that moment, Su Luo felt a powerful energy surge within him.

He transformed his frustration and hopes into strength, silently vowing to himself:

No matter how long the suspension lasts, no matter how long the wait, he must be ready when the moment of return arrives.

Loosening his clenched fists, Su Luo stood up and walked to the sidelines.

He faced the pitch and let out a roaring cry, then strode into the training area with renewed fire in his eyes.
