Chapter 232: He Cares About His Reputation!

In the Shadow School.

Fly was hanging upside down on the ceiling, messaging her current girlfriend in the game, "No, isn’t the competition coming up soon, practicing in the arena every day?"

"No, I didn’t say you don’t have to play in the reserves."

"There’s a prize for first place, you know."

"I won’t take it all, but three million is fine, the club will also give extra rewards later."

"Um, maybe, but…"

"Okay, okay, my bad, can you wait for two days?"

"No, there’s only six days left until the competition."

"In the game, it’s two months, but, okay, I’ll give you all the prize money from the individual competition after the match, okay, darling?"

"Okay, let’s not talk about it now."

Closing the chat box, Fly hanging upside down on the beam couldn’t help but sigh, "So tired…"

A mentor passing by glanced at Fly, and then silently walked away.

But just then, a player suddenly came here and stopped that mentor.

"Oh, it’s you. Rare to see you at my Shadow School, what’s up?"

Hearing this, Fly looked down and saw that it was none other than Brother FaceMountain Ghost.

Zhou Li briefly explained his purpose, "I just hope to borrow your sect’s Holy Relic, any conditions are fine!"

The mentor fell silent for a moment after hearing this, "Want to borrow the Shadow-cutting Blade, um, I can’t make the decision, I have to consult the master first."

"No need, I have already come."

At that moment, a person wearing a black robe and a mask suddenly walked in. "Nice to meet you, young Mountain Ghost. Ancestors have been mentioning you to me in my dreams."

"Seeing you today, indeed you have a remarkable demeanor. I heard that you came for the Shadow-cutting Blade?"

Zhou Li nodded, "Yes, please lend it to me."

The Dark Shadow Master pondered for a moment, "Young one, you should know that the Shadow-cutting Blade is a Holy Relic of our shadow school, passed down by our Ancestor, the Shadow Saint."

"If an ordinary person came to borrow the Shadow-cutting Blade, we would have already sent them away, as it is a Holy Relic, after all."

"However, for your sake, we can make an exception this time and lend you the Shadow-cutting Blade."

Zhou Li was delighted at the news, "Really, thank you so much! Are there any conditions?"

"Of course, there are conditions," said the Dark Shadow Master, taking out a map from his waist.

"Legend has it that long ago, there was an ancient sacred relic in this land called the Well of the Moon."

"The Well of the Moon can extract the essence of the moon, turning it into a magical spring with endless powers. It is said that it can give people a new life."

"Even extending one’s lifespan, reversing aging, we have been searching for the Well of the Moon since ancient times, but always without success."

"This map records the location of the Well of the Moon. We lend you the Shadow-cutting Blade, but you must find the Well of the Moon for us."

Zhou Li wanted to say, "You can’t find something on the map, but I can?".

Do you really think players can do anything?

Um…

Strictly speaking, it seems to be so.

Seeing Zhou Li fall into silence, the Dark Shadow Master continued, "The power of the moon spring is even more mysterious and powerful than what I have said."

"It can even cleanse the effects of the Magic Potion you consumed, making your strength pure and unparalleled."

So, is it used for washing?

Just then, Fly who had been eavesdropping on the ceiling suddenly jumped down and said, "I think I can take on this mission too."

Seeing Fly coming down, Dark Shadow Master suddenly took back the map and said, "You can’t."

Fly, "??"

Why can’t I?

Zhou Li raised his head and said, "I’ll take on this mission, but can you lend me the Shadow-cutting Blade first? I’m in a hurry."

Dark Shadow Master handed the map to Zhou Li, "Okay, I trust you’ll keep your promise, but without the power of shadows, you can’t use the Shadow-cutting Blade. Even if you have it, you won’t be able to use it."

Fly spoke up again, "Can I borrow it for a bit?"

Dark Shadow Master glanced at him and said, "No, you can’t."

Here she comes again?

Fly was speechless, the differential treatment was right in her face!

"How about this, since you need the Shadow-cutting Blade, I can accompany you with the Shadow-cutting Blade."

Zhou Li thought about it, and it seemed okay.

"Thank you, Master, I’ll rely on you for the next steps."

Fly, "What about me?"

。。。

On the other side, on the fifth floor.

Inside the Golden Tree.

Walking on Golden Road, Ye Qiu and his companion are crossing the second challenge. "Soon we will encounter many souls on the road, they will try to stop us. This will depend on you."

Jiang Chen takes out the Stagnant Energy Staff, "I will do my best."

"By the way, isn’t the competition starting soon? Are you going to participate?"

Ye Qiu originally didn’t plan to join, "Team competitions require too many people, but for individual battles…"

An opportunity to meet the developers in person.

In a past life, only one person had seen the true face of the developers, but that person didn’t mention it much afterwards.

Therefore, this matter ultimately faded away.

And that person was Holy Light.

Perhaps no one would have expected that the player who would reach the top in the individual competition would be Guild Casual’s president, Holy Light.

Ye Qiu wasn’t very interested in this matter at first.

But combining with what had happened to him since his rebirth, a very scary suspicion started to grow in his heart.

"individual competition, worth a try."

。。。

Time flew by, and the real world had already started the countdown.

The offline competition venue had already begun construction, and all team competition players would need to participate offline when the time comes.

The officials had prepared many top-notch gaming cabins to be placed at the offline venue.

All countries followed this standard, where team competitions were held offline, while individual competitions followed a rule-less mode.

After a long silence, Yama finally made a comeback.

But even though the internet forgets quickly, some players still remember the name Yama deeply.

He wasn’t there for the reward, so he didn’t plan to go offline. Instead, he was getting ready to reach the top in the individual competition!

At this point, advertisements from the outside world are everywhere.

While Chen Ye was leisurely fishing by the lake in the game, he was taking it easy. "Almost time to adjust the time flow back," he thought.

Just then, an NPC carrying a fishing rod arrived at the lake as usual but suddenly froze in place.

Finally, he turned around to leave.

Seeing this, Chen Ye didn’t even look back and said, "Since you came prepared, why leave in such a hurry?"

The NPC named Shadow One paused, then directly stiffened in place.

He turned stiffly, eyes full of fear, and looked at Chen Ye. "H-hello, I suddenly remembered, I think I left something at home."

Chen Ye saw a fishing rod being pulled up. He thought, "Is it too late for them to turn around now that they have come this far?"
