Chapter 2905: Chapter 1378: Whoever Gains Xiao Yu Gains the World

Okay, so let’s shift our view back to reality and take another look at Motan and his gang… uh?

You’re asking how those outsiders are doing? How are Ji Wutong and Yi Nan fighting?

Oh, how else could it be? They’re just plotting together, the two of them having a lively time tossing skills around, they’re brothers after all. How can it possibly end in anyone getting hurt? No way, they’re just having a playful fight.

Specifics? Specifics, huh… is it really necessary to write them down in detail? Anyway, it doesn’t really relate to the main storyline of our tale. The scene is surely not small, the atmosphere is surely in place, the style points are surely high, but honestly, it’s not of much use.

Besides, those two have pretty high style points when they fight. The light pollution, the sound effects, the atmospheric rendering… it’s not that I can’t write it, but the key is, after everyone reads it and feels satisfied for a moment, what if the lesser scenes afterward feel lacking? What if the reading experience isn’t as engaging?

Could I let you lose your reading experience? Am I that kind of person?

I can’t possibly be that kind of person, so this time let’s just touch on it lightly, a little indication is enough, making it too serious and complicated is not pretty.

Moreover, this group of parents, to put it bluntly, are mere extras, so there’s no need to waste too much ink on them, right?

Good, no swearing, just enjoy the book.

Real-time AM 13:47

City B, De Xing District, Motan’s apartment

The discussion about the temporarily named ‘World’s First Martial Arts Tournament’ is still going strong——

“Honestly, I think it’s pointless for us to even bother thinking about it.”

Wanyang glanced at Cui Xiaoyu, who was munching on chips next to him, and said with a face like dirt: “Don’t forget how Xiaoyu ranks in the game, always second place!”

Smack!!

Cui Xiaoyu slapped Wanyang, making him stagger, and cursed: “What do you mean always second place! Can’t you put it nicely? At worst, call me the one above all others.”

Ji Xiaodao glanced at him indifferently: “Isn’t being one rank below still the same as always second place?”

“Xiao Dao girl…”

Cui Xiaoyu’s expression fell, gritting his teeth he said: “Let me tell you, the person in first has been on top since the ranking started. No matter how many upgrades that Undying Luwei gives me, they always manage to keep me down. I think that question mark is most likely some official puppet!”

Ji Xiaodao frowned, was silent for about two seconds, then said in an extremely reserved tone: “Probably not…”

“Why can’t it be?”

Cordova ground his teeth and stamped his foot, grumbling: “Don’t you think it’s strange? Aside from me, no other player has reached the Epic level yet, but no matter what, that person is always ranked above me. Isn’t this ridiculous? Every upgrade Undying Luwei gives me is like you guys training hard for several months, right? Even so, I still can’t catch up with that question mark. Is this really reasonable?”

Kanglan tugged at the corner of his mouth, subtly retorting: “Listen to yourself, does that even make sense? What do you mean every upgrade is like us training hard for several months? Why don’t you talk about whether your being second place is reasonable?”

“Moreover, Xiaoyu, you don’t even suffer from death penalties. You die and just wait for a new body back at Sky Pillar Mountain.”

Yi Dong joined in on the complaints, crossing his legs and squinting: “To us diligent and honest players, you’re no different from using cheats.”

Motan beside him nodded in agreement, sincerely suggested: “Versailles is not the way to go. It’s only because you’re quite strong; otherwise, a few of us would have already acted.”

“Um…”

At some point, Yu Chen had moved closer and gently tugged on Motan’s sleeve, whispering: “I think Xiaoyu being strong is a good thing. Back in Misha County, the situation was so tough, but in the end, we barely won thanks to Xiaoyu.”

Motan’s mouth twitched, then he nodded slowly, his expression brightening as he agreed: “Yeah, that’s true.”

And then inexplicably wanted to punch Cui Xiaoyu.

But the person involved shamelessly grinned, crossed his legs, and said, “You can’t say it like that. I’m an exception. You know what an exception is, right? It’s, um… when a great mission falls upon someone.”

“In that case, maybe the person ranked first is like you, having some fortuitous encounters that rapidly increased their strength?”

Ji Xiaoge was studying the ingredients on a chip package while casually said: “A great mission doesn’t have to fall on just one person.”

Upon hearing this, Cui Xiaoyu immediately shook his head like a rattle and righteously said: “That’s impossible, a great mission has to fall on a good person! What does a question mark mean? Basically, everyone knows now that a question mark is a player from the Chaos Evil Camp. Being chaotic evil, how can they be a good person?”

“Hey!”

Ji Xiaoge glared at Cui Xiaoyu, hands on hips: “You can’t say that! Xiao Dao is also from the Chaos Evil Camp!”

Cui Xiaoyu was dumbfounded because Ji Xiaodao barely interacted with anyone in the game, he’d almost forgotten that this cold-natured girl plays in The Realm of Innocence too. He suddenly realized that not only does she play, but she’s also a chaotic evil scenery lover. He immediately bowed deeply, hands together: “Sorry, sorry! I was just being superficial! The in-game camp can’t be taken into account, Xiao Dao girl’s personality is really quite… good!”
