Chapter 193: Chapter 193: Online Gaming God VS Affectionate Disciple (Twenty)
Zhang Yang blinked and chuckled with a snicker.
“Look at you, acting all high and mighty on normal days. Now you’ve fallen into my hands.”
He coughed and began, “Well, this thing is…”
Before he could start posturing, the man opposite him spoke calmly, “A few days ago, when I was running a dungeon, I happened to obtain a Five Poisons Dagger.”
Zhang Yang’s eyes instantly widened.
The name alone made it clear that it was a set with the Five Poisons Ring he had recently extorted from Mo Tingyuan.
As a Beast Tamer, how could he miss out on such an item?
He immediately changed his expression, grinning affably, “Ah, Young Master Mo, you’ve come to the right person, chasing girls is…”
Mo Tingyuan sat quietly, listening to Zhang Yang imparting his ‘wisdom’.
Meanwhile, Gu Shengyin received an email from the system.
“A server-wide player PK contest. The top fifty will be invited to the player conference hosted by ‘Spirit Sword Immortal’?” Gu Shengyin frowned.
She wasn’t interested in any player conference, but the server-wide PK contest was something she might participate in.
Ding! Another email came through.
“An attractiveness competition for players, separate for males and females, where the top fifty players will receive an invitation to the conference?” Gu Shengyin read out the message.
Suddenly, she recalled what the game company was up to.
“If you ask me, they should just pick the number one male and female player from the server-wide PK leaderboard to be the spokespersons. Why make things so complicated!” someone in the game development department of ‘Spirit Sword Immortal’ complained.
Yangzi frowned, “I can understand the company’s requirements, these days, who doesn’t judge by looks? The fact that our company doesn’t hire celebrities but instead looks for players within the game to be the spokespersons is already quite extraordinary.”
While that was the case, what these programmers hoped for the most was still to have the truly strong players who could represent the game’s peak strength be the representatives.
He was looking at his computer desktop, where an image of a female swordsman in white stood strikingly, her expression cold and solemn. Though her face wasn’t extremely beautiful, she had a certain presence.
What a pity, he sighed to himself. Given Rustling Wood’s situation, even if she was able to secure the top spot in server-wide PK, the company probably wouldn’t consider her.
“Xiao Xiao, did you see the system email?” Mountains and Rivers in One Sword said to Gu Shengyin.
Gu Shengyin nodded, “I am planning to participate in the PK contest.”
Mountains and Rivers in One Sword seemed excited, “With your strength, making it into the top fifty of the server is no problem at all. Then, I’ll be able to see you.”
What he didn’t know was that Gu Shengyin had no intention of attending that so-called conference.
The server-wide PK contest was to be held in the game, while the players’ attractiveness competition was initiated on the forum by the official hosts.
It was also the first time Gu Shengyin saw the real face of Little Building in the Smoke and Rain.
It had to be said that Little Building in the Smoke and Rain was indeed quite attractive. Players who confidently posted their photos on the official forum generally had some confidence in their looks, and even among such people, Little Building in the Smoke and Rain was outstanding.
In-game grudges never last long, and players are forgetful when it comes to incidents that don’t involve themselves.
Soon, Little Building in the Smoke and Rain, with this attractiveness contest, found herself many Flower Guardians.
Many defended her and whitewashed her image, and there were even a few die-hard fans who ignored the ironclad evidence in the forum videos and slandered Rustling Wood, saying how such a cute girl like Smoke and Rain could never say such nasty things.
