Chapter 264 - - 262 Pioneers change the rules with their own power_1

—————✧✧✧✧—————

“The most exciting episode in history, Pan Universe Entertainment unveils a treasure of a newcomer.”

The latest video on the official forum of Pan Universe Entertainment was pinned prominently at the top.

The cover featured a scene of several Void Refinement Realm members from the Supervisory Academy fighting against the Medical Immortal Sect.

Zheng Tingwen and others were stripped bare and had their limbs plucked, floating in the air stark naked as they confronted Duge. In self-defense, Duge used his Spiritual Energy to control their limbs, forming a defensive barrier around him. It looked both thrilling and hilarious, and was super eye-catching.

“I watched the live broadcast of this episode; it was so fierce, Pan Universe Entertainment hasn’t had such an impressive newcomer in a long time.”

“I watched too, complete domination. It’s a pity it was too short; I wasn’t satisfied before it was over.”

“Damn it, I didn’t even have time to place a bet.”

“Did Fleshbag change his strategy? Haven’t watched the live stream in a while; it’s just a bunch of cowards over and over, utterly unexciting, almost puts you to sleep watching.”

“Does anyone still watch this crappy live stream?”

“If not for making some easy money, I would’ve stopped watching ‘Resource Game’ long ago.”

“The latest episode is worth watching, short and exciting. The newcomer played around with the keywords brilliantly. In the end, those guys didn’t even manage to guess that the newcomer’s keyword was ‘plunder’.”

“Damn it, that son of a bitch made me lose a fortune. I bet big on a Fleshbag with a consolidated keyword; that guy had a high starting point, but showed no impressive performance in the later stages, complete trash. It’s good he got killed. Otherwise, I’d storm into Pan Universe Entertainment and drag him out to torture him a hundred times over.”

“You got off easy compared to me; I bet on ‘chaos’. In the end, that Fleshbag was playing house with a bunch of kids until his dying breath, still asking why they’re killing him. I ended up laughing out of sheer frustration; there are too many idiots.”

“Luckily I placed my bet on the newcomer king just as it was about to end. At that time, Pan Universe Entertainment hadn’t adjusted the odds yet, so I made a neat sum. Hehe, I rewarded that little guy with a bit of spiritual power as a treat.”

“I checked out the video; the newcomer king is too cool, he has his own set of ideas. I want to bet on him next time.”

“Before you bet on him, first you have to be sure he’ll play again; second, you have to find him among thousands of people; third, you have to ensure he randomly gets a good keyword. You need all three conditions, and I don’t believe you’d still bet on him if he randomly got a keyword like ‘slovenly’. I’d rather believe he’s a shooting star that’ll just pass by.”

“Yeah! Those Fleshbags rarely compete a second time after earning glory. I think Pan Universe Entertainment is too lenient in controlling them. Those excellent seed players should be made to keep on competing; the viewership would definitely skyrocket.”

“Agreed.”

“Pan Universe Entertainment won’t do that. The Alien Battlefield is too cruel for those Fleshbags. If they knew they’d have to compete continuously, they’d just give up.”

“Indeed, if those seed players competed continuously, Pan Universe Entertainment would take a huge loss.”

“They wouldn’t lose; if they were all seed players, then it wouldn’t be clear who would win. No one can resist money, right?”

“I have a feeling that Pan Universe Entertainment won’t let that surprising newcomer just fade away.”

“What I’m more interested in is what comes next. The newcomer king released eight people back to their different planets, which means his fighting style will be researched by all Fleshbag nations. The next Alien Battlefield will be super exciting. He brought an element of unpredictability to Pan Universe Entertainment. Honestly, I’m looking forward to the next Alien Battlefield.”

“Are there any network experts? I’m requesting you to hack into Pan Universe Entertainment’s servers. I heard that Fleshbags go through basic training in simulation fields during their growth, and I’m very interested in the newcomer king’s basic training. If you can find video footage of his basic training, I’ll pay five hundred Star coins.”

“After the newcomer king’s battlefield ended, the viewership of the other three battlefields has plummeted to rock bottom. I strongly suggest adding another match, inviting that just-ended newcomer king to compete again. If there are any Pan Universe Entertainment executives here, please convey to the newcomer king, if he’s willing to compete again, I promise to reward him with 1000 Star coins worth of spiritual power.”

“Add one more match.”

“Add one more match.”

“Is it really as fun as you guys say? Don’t lie to me, if I find out it’s not as exciting as you claim, I’ll come back and report each of you!”

“All the people above must be employees of Pan Universe Entertainment!”

“Has anyone watched the full video? Please come back and give feedback.”

“Super exhilarating, I feel like the rules for the next Alien Battlefield will definitely change. I suggest adding another match…”

…

One message after another popped up in the forum, scrolling before Bai Long’s eyes.

Bai Long watched the flurry of activity caused by Duge’s performance, uncertain whether to feel happy or worried.

After contemplating for a moment, his fingers tapped continuously on the virtual screen in front of him.

Soon, he had composed an email, bundling the video of Duge’s participation in the Alien Battlefield, along with three simulation field videos and forum feedback, and sent it off to the company’s executives.

Actually.

It wasn’t just Bai Long who was fuming.

The supervisors in charge of the other three alien battlefields had also reported the special phenomenon brought about by Duge to the higher-ups.

After Duge went offline, the ratings for the other three alien battlefields had plummeted disastrously.

Meanwhile, the playback and download numbers for the concluded battlefield’s videos kept climbing, reaching new heights.

Pan-Universe Entertainment’s “Resource Game” hadn’t seen such high conversation heat in a long time.

With just one bout on the alien battlefield, Duge had garnered immense fame for himself.

…

At this point.

Duge had already returned to his home.

Having experienced Plucking Feathers in Passing from Duge, Nan Youlong went to report to his superiors with a belly full of shock and frustration.

The war mode of the alien battlefields might change because of Duge.

Qiyuan Star had to come up with targeted policies in response, and the previous series of educational guidelines and talent selection plans had to be revised accordingly.

This was a major undertaking that had to be approached with the utmost care.

Otherwise, for the next decade or more, Qiyuan Star would either make a killing, or a single misstep could spell disaster for the entire star, something he dared not decide on his own.

…

Back at home, Duge was experimenting with his skills, and so far, he had acquired nine skills.

Duge had confirmed that Actions on Behalf of Heaven had not been carried over from the alien battlefield.

Of course, even if it had been, it wouldn’t have been of much use.

There was no Spiritual Energy or Inner Strength in the real world, and he couldn’t loot anything from other people.

However, without the overlay of Immortal Martial World’s Spiritual Power, the skill Plucking Feathers in Passing brought about many inconveniences in his daily life.

Now, Duge didn’t dare to casually touch anything, especially the pair of twins he lived with.

He had to be exceedingly careful when interacting with them.

Stripping them bare was a minor issue, but the real fear was that he might accidentally remove their arms or legs without meaning to, and Qiyuan Star didn’t have the healing capabilities or medical skills for recovery.

Even if their limbs could be reattached, they wouldn’t function as well as before, and there was the risk of becoming disabled.

Despite that, it had to be said that Plucking Feathers in Passing combined with Backstab allowed Duge to take a life in an instant, even without a sharp blade in hand.

Although they had never truly fought, Nan Youlong, with only seventy-eight thousand Spiritual Power, was no match for Duge anymore.

Regrettably, aside from Spiritual Power, Duge hadn’t found the right skill to enhance his physical body from other aspects.

To have complete command with a single call, Muddy Water Touch Fish, and Doctor’s Benevolence could work perfectly together. As long as the news of his victory on the alien battlefield spread and Pan-Universe Entertainment distributed the resources,

Duge was confident that he could quickly rise to a leadership position on Qiyuan Star using these three skills.

But what was the point of being a ruler on a star that might topple at any moment, still subject to exploitation by Pan-Universe Entertainment…

Duge’s ultimate wish was to escape this world.

Thus, what he most looked forward to were the next three simulated environments.

Without the risk to his life, gaining two skills would be incredibly worthwhile.

If he was fast enough, maybe he could clear all three simulated environments and acquire six skills before the next alien battlefield opened…
