288: Chapter 287: Make Up Number 288: Chapter 287: Make Up Number “My surname is Fu, as in the character ‘Fu’, and I’m the vice record holder here, just call me Vice Record Holder Fu,” Fu Quan stated arrogantly.
However, when he mentioned “Vice Record Holder Fu,” even he felt it was a bit of a tongue-twister, not to mention Ye Haochuan.
But when it came to putting on a show, Ye Haochuan considered himself second to none, with few daring to claim the first place in his presence.
“Oh, so it’s Record Holder Fu, I’ve long heard of your renowned name, it’s an honor to meet you…” Ye Haochuan said with a thick-skinned grin.
At this moment, An Li was not far behind him and couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing this.
This little brother really knew how to network; his gift of gab was truly unbeatable.
Fu Quan looked at Ye Haochuan strangely and asked, “And you are…?”
Moving closer, Ye Haochuan spoke in a candid tone, “I’m sorry, Record Holder Fu, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but I really can’t reveal my identity.
After all, I’m also here to participate in the PK, just think of me as Mr.
Considering the Qi Condensing Pill, Fu Quan understood and laughed, “Well said, well said.”
“Thank you for your understanding, Record Holder Fu, please accept these Qi Condensing Pills as a token of appreciation.” Saying this, Ye Haochuan stuffed another handful of Qi Condensing Pills into his pocket.
To him, Qi Condensing Pills were not difficult to manufacture; with his current alchemy skills, he could produce hundreds in one day, so it was no big deal.
Seeing another few dozen Qi Condensing Pills in hand, Record Holder Fu’s face lit up with joy, looking more and more pleased with this young man in the Black Bat mask.
Of course, An Li saw all these covert actions clearly, and although she was surprised to see Ye Haochuan generously doling out the Qi Condensing Pills, she wondered just where this little brother got so many from.
“Hmm, you’re a good lad, a genuine one.
Tell me, what do you need help with?
As long as I can assist, I’ll do everything within my power,” Fu Quan promised.
Only then did Ye Haochuan grin mischievously and spoke of his intention to substitute a number.
“You want to substitute a number?” Fu Quan shook his head and put on airs, “You really are something else.
Don’t you know that the registration time for the arena PK is at nine o’clock in the evening?
It’s been half an hour since then, and you’re just now coming to substitute a number, isn’t that a bit late?”
Seeing his previous politeness now turn into a scolding, Ye Haochuan could not express how frustrated he felt inside, wanting to beat him into a pulp, but remembering the saying, ‘beggars can’t be choosers.’
So, he forced a smile and said, “You’re right, Record Holder Fu, I’ll be more mindful next time…”
“There’s a next time?” Fu Quan scolded sternly.
Has your family life been unhappy lately?
Why the hell are you taking it out on me?
Ye Haochuan was utterly displeased inside, but he still managed to say all the right things, “You’ve misunderstood, Record Holder Fu, I won’t dare do it again.”
Seeing that he could bend and flatter, Fu Quan thought to himself that it would be too harsh not to give him a break.
“Alright, since you appear quite sincere, I’ll give you a chance.”
With that, Fu Quan led Ye Haochuan to the registration machine, plugged in the power, and let him use his grey card to register.
Ye Haochuan did as directed, took a number, and naturally, he thanked him excessively, as cheesy as it was.
Fu Quan thoroughly enjoyed it, looking exceedingly smug and said, “Take this number and quickly go to Arena No.
2’s coordinator to arrange your entry sequence.”
Ye Haochuan acknowledged with an “Oh,” took the number, and walked away, finally free from that utterly nauseating fellow.
An Li followed him and soon caught up, chuckling, “You really are capable…”
Ye Haochuan glanced at her and said gloomily, “Is it easy for me?
To get a number, I spent quite a few Qi Condensing Pills on bribery, not to mention all the groveling, it’s too damn corrupt!”
An Li giggled, covering her mouth, “That’s enough, little brother.
You’ve already successfully gotten your spot.
If it were someone else, who knows how many flirtatious glances it would take before he agreed.”
I knew you’d do it this way!
Ye Haochuan thought about it and became a bit angry.
He then assertively hummed in her ear, “Listen up, from now on you’re not allowed to casually throw flirtatious glances at other men.
I’ve got everything handled, got it?”
With eyes full of allure, An Li nodded and cooed, “Got it.”
Only then did Ye Haochuan feel satisfied and said, “Wait here, I’m going to register our spot.”
After searching around under Arena No.
2, Ye Haochuan finally located the so-called person in charge there, a guy in his twenties who was so dark-skinned he could give Song Xiaobao a run for his money.
The moment this guy heard he wanted to register late, his face soured, “What’s with your lack of punctuality?
What time do you think it is to be registering now?
Do you think it’s that easy to register a spot?”
Damn, you’re a nobody, and you dare to act all high and mighty in front of me?
Ye Haochuan, growing impatient, said sternly, “Have you said enough?
Record Holder Fu got this spot for me, and even he hasn’t complained.
So why are you, an attendant, talking so much?”
Upon hearing that Record Holder Fu had gotten the spot for him, the guy immediately broke into a cold sweat and hurriedly put on a smile, “Sorry, sorry, brother, I’ll get you registered right away…
Oh, right, which rank are you challenging?”
“Is there any particular method to this?” Ye Haochuan asked curiously.
“Of course, there’s a trick to it, brother.”
The guy, eager to please, fearful of him complaining to Record Holder Fu, whom everyone knew was petty, and not wanting to cross him said,
This PK bar also really focuses on strategy.
The most crucial thing is to accurately determine your own strength.
You definitely can’t be overly ambitious, otherwise not only will your rank drop, but you’ll also waste energy and stamina.
At the next PK, you’ll be discouraged and lack the strength, leading to a steady drop in rank…
it’s just not worth it…”
After hearing the explanation, Ye Haochuan finally understood.
“So, which rank are you thinking of challenging?” the guy asked again with a smile.
“Just the top ten,” Ye Haochuan said casually.
The top ten?” The guy was practically peeing himself.
Is there a problem?” Ye Haochuan glanced at him sideways.
The guy shook his head vigorously, looked him up and down, and feeling a bit puzzled, asked, “By the way, if you don’t mind me asking, brother, what is your current rank in the Postnatal Mid-Stage classification?”
Ye Haochuan thought for a moment, “The very last, I guess.”
Freaking hell, ranked at the very bottom, which must be hundreds of spots back, and you dare to challenge the top ten?
Man, you’re really asking for trouble!
The guy kept shaking his head vigorously, then cautiously advised, “Brother, I’d recommend you be a bit more careful.
With your ranking, you might want to start by challenging the ten ranks ahead of you first, then…”
“Why are you spouting so much nonsense?
Is it me PK-ing or you?” Ye Haochuan got impatient again.
Seeing his reaction, the guy didn’t dare say another word, obediently shut his mouth, and arranged the spot as he had requested.
However, in his mind, the guy couldn’t help but sneer, Alright, you’re capable.
Just wait and see how you’re going to be thrashed by those top ten experts!
