Chapter 719: 425, Social Death and Anti-Social Death
Online, a netizen asked why it seemed like the whole world had invitations from the Time Traveler Federation, but they didn’t.
Other netizens commented, “Maybe you’re just not that important.”
Gradually, everyone also realized that not everyone received an invitation. Some who were ordinary workers in the Outer World and continued to be honest workers in the Inner World didn’t receive one.
However, those with names and fame, who were already very active Time Travelers, almost all received invitations.
Of course, there were also a small portion of active Time Travelers who didn’t receive invitations.
Some had relied on their identity as Time Travelers to become famous and then started selling fake liquor. The liquor they sold could be drunk by someone who could drive on the road and traffic police still couldn’t detect drunk driving.
Others, after becoming famous, started claiming they had obtained Inner World securities analysis software and daily pulled fans into groups for financial scams.
And then there were those who were simply fraudulent and deceptive.
There were all sorts of people.
So, the netizens also discovered this pattern. Kunlun didn’t invite any Time Travelers with dubious records.
Kunlun’s reputation within the country was built bit by bit through the actions of Zheng Yuandong and his team.
While other Time Traveler organizations were racing against time, afraid of a slow start,
Kunlun always adhered to its principles, never inviting those of poor character and always emphasizing discipline.
Thus, whether one was invited by Kunlun became the official certification for these celebrity Time Travelers.
For a time, the comments of those tricksters exploded. This was officially certifying them as Time Travelers with bad records…
Some tricksters even forged messages and photoshopped QR codes claiming they too had received an invitation.
The result was that Kunlun, seemingly idle, even specifically debunked these claims one by one, denying they had invited those individuals.
It was a face-slap on the spot.
Kunlun was indeed serious about maintaining its reputation.
After all, this round of invitations from the Time Traveler Federation, not having one was definitely embarrassing.
It felt a bit strange to Nan Gengchen; he privately asked Qing Chen, “Bro Chen, if Kunlun doesn’t invite Time Travelers with bad records, then why did they invite you? Isn’t that irresponsible towards other Time Travelers?”
After all, who else thinks about others’ taboo items before even meeting them?
Qing Chen looked at Nan Gengchen expressionlessly. Seeing his serious demeanor, he wasn’t sure if he was joking or genuinely curious about the question…
“What’s your level of cultivation now?” Qing Chen asked.
“Bro Chen, I’ve been D-Class for a while now, maybe next time I time travel I could reach C-Class,” said Nan Gengchen innocently.
Qing Chen was stunned, “…”
He didn’t want to comment anymore on this guy’s cultivation progress, and moreover, the Zhunti method… indeed, it was a bizarre method of cultivation.
Nan Gengchen continued, “If it wasn’t for Xiao Tongyun always following me, I might have reached C-Class already. I agreed to do her homework for her, and then she agreed not to be a third wheel.”
Qing Chen looked at Nan Gengchen speechlessly, “Who asked you to do Xiao Tongyun’s homework? She needs to do her homework herself.”
Nan Gengchen said regretfully, “I didn’t want to either, but she insisted on it. Otherwise, she threatened to spend 24 hours a day with Yino. When I suggested Xiao Tongyun stay in City 18, she acted very strangely and insisted on following us to City 7. At first, I didn’t understand why. Later, I thought that her following us to City 7 was precisely because she was planning to make me help her with her homework.”
On the side, Xiao Tongyun was displeased, “But you didn’t do it right either!”
Xiao Tongyun scheming against Nan Gengchen indeed seemed like something a young girl would do.
But for a high schooler to do elementary school homework and still get it wrong, that was truly impressive…
Just then, Hu Xiaoniu suddenly came to the bedroom looking for Qing Chen, “Boss, I might be leaving. Not leaving the daylight, but leaving Los Angeles City.”
Qing Chen smiled, seemingly having anticipated this, “Where are you planning to go?”
Hu Xiaoniu hesitated and then said, “Every part of the life-and-death trial is too difficult. For someone ordinary like me, if I don’t undergo long-term training, I probably won’t be able to complete it. I have to complete eight challenges. So, I plan to return to Haicheng, seek the world’s best extreme sports coach, and get trained. I need to race against time, not wasting a single moment.”
Indeed, the best coach would be Qing Chen, since he was the one who truly walked the path of a Knight.
But Hu Xiaoniu was also well aware that Qing Chen didn’t have the time.
Moreover, the Knight Organization was distributed all over, and each individual had their own path. Cultivation was often done alone, savoring the solitude.
Thus, he couldn’t continue staying in Los Angeles City. The resources here were far inferior to those of Haicheng, and he also needed to challenge the limits around the world step by step.
During this period, Hu Xiaoniu had watched his companions advance one by one. Nan Gengchen could reach C-Class anytime, even Zhang Tianzhen was already D-Class, and Xiao Tongyun, this cultivation genius, was even advancing at a speed close to Nan Gengchen on her own power.
Hu Xiaoniu watched this, how could he not be anxious?
He heard that Li Ke had already left City 18, embarking on a journey.
Everyone was progressing, but he was still stagnating.
He had to move forward.
Hu Xiaoniu said quietly, “It’s warm here. Back home, my family members were all very harmonious, but it’s a different feeling here. Everyone plays, games, eats, and fights together. This has become my second home. But I have to leave, I can’t linger on the beautiful here. Boss, you also said, among all the shortcuts in the human world, this is the longest one.”
