Tian Du City.
The Sword Card Master Association.
The morning sun was still bright and beautiful.
The familiar voices of the children could be heard from the affiliated college of the association. "Original Card, Original Card, you have already grown up. You are already a mature Original Card …"
Near the central square of the association, the disciples could be heard reciting the three values daily. "Justice, honesty, unity, friendliness …"
Lu Ming swept his gaze over them, feeling very gratified.
The disciples …
They were very hardworking.
"Master ~
"Time to eat."
Xiao Bai was preparing breakfast.
"Okay."
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
After the meal.
Lu Ming planned to start preparing for the Glory Association. On the other hand, after Xiaobai packed her things, she sent some breakfast to Xiaoming Sheng and Little You Sheng.
"Morning."
Hin greeted her.
"Senior Hin, morning."
Xiao Bai waved her hands.
"Why didn't you wake your master up for the past two days?"
Hin was curious.
In the past, Xiao Bai would wake people up first and then cook. These two days, Xiao Bai would bring the food over directly after she finished cooking.
"Well …"
Xiao Bai felt somewhat embarrassed. "Master woke up on his own these two days."
“?”
Hin was a little confused.
Woke up on his own … Why are you so shy?
Wait a minute.
Hin suddenly understood.
"Child.
"When you said woke up on his own … do you mean a person or … something?"
Hin asked.
“???”
Xiao Bai was puzzled. What was it?
"Hehe."
Hin's lips curled to reveal a faint smile. "Youngsters like you really know how to have fun."
Xiao Bai was speechless.
…
On the screen.
The advertisements for the Glory Grand Ceremony were as crazy as ever.
These few days …
Everyone's attention was on the grand ceremony. People from various cities also came to Tian Du City to participate in this most glorious moment. It was very lively.
"The most powerful lifestyle vocation!"
Lu Ming pondered deeply.
He was very clear.
If he wanted to win this so-called award, he had to prepare well.
Especially —
Information about the previous ceremonies.
"Master.
"This is the information you requested."
Li Haoran sent the relevant documents to the office.
The strongest Life Profession!
This was a vocation that all the auxiliary vocations would be involved in. Typically, the Card Creators Association, the Cleric Association, the Array Formation Master Association, the Sharpshooter Association …
Wait a minute!
Lu Ming suddenly stopped. Sharpshooter Association?!
Yes.
He was right.
He had seen the Sharpshooter Association with his own eyes!
???
Lu Ming was a little dazed.
If he remembered correctly, this was... An ADC, right?
An ADC playing support?
Do you think you're ice?!
Besides …
This was a profession!
This wasn't a support class!
"It's a combat class."
Li Haoran confirmed.
Sharpshooter, second only to Swordsman as the strongest offensive class! It was also an upright combat profession! Its lethality was terrifying! It was just waste paper …
Ah, no, it was a waste of money.
"They're participating in the support class competition?"
Lu Ming was speechless.
"Yes."
Li Haoran smiled bitterly. "When I looked up the information just now, there was another session where they surpassed the Card Creators Association and won the glory of the strongest life profession."
Lu Ming was speechless.
"On what grounds?"
Lu Ming was puzzled.
"Selling arrows."
Li Haoran looked serious.
"What?
Selling … selling arrows. "
Li Haoran explained, "Sharpshooters need all kinds of arrows. Ordinary factories are unable to produce them. Therefore, Sharpshooters make their own arrows.
"Therefore."
Generally speaking, Sharpshooters will make arrows …
In layman terms, there are a large number of civilian Sharpshooters who make arrows while cultivating, while the rich Sharpshooters buy arrows directly. "
Li Haoran explained.
"Oh.
Understood. "
Lu Ming rubbed his head.
Wasn't this the pattern of pay-to-win online games …
A large number of cannon fodder and pay-to-win big shots would achieve a balance in the market.
This …
This was the cultivation model of Sharpshooter.
The strongest life profession …
What was life?
How to assess it?
Lu Ming looked at the cases of previous sessions and looked at the so-called introduction. In the end, he decided on the criteria for their assessment — the economic output of the association!
Right.
They were calculating — output.
Cultivation?
It was not.
Only the output of the association could drive the GDP. This was considered a life profession!
→_→
Look, the Swordsman Association was rich, right?
However, they bought swordplay directly and did not have any output. At most, they fought to earn extra money and did manual labor. They did not have any output!
Therefore —
Their assessment was very likely to be zero.
Of course.
You might ask, Sharpshooters needed to sell arrows, but did Swordsmen not need to sell swords?
They really did not need to.
The most powerful sword of a Swordsman was the vocation core!
It was oneself!
Sword?
It did not exist.
Apart from a small number of Sharpshooters that existed since ancient times, 99.9% of Swordsman used their vocation core as a weapon!
Sharpshooters were different …
Arrows.
Those were consumables.
Arrows with different attributes had different consumables. Lu Ming vaguely remembered that he had followed Xia Yu to buy similar arrows.
Therefore …
Sharpshooters were indeed considered a life profession.
"Very good."
Lu Ming rubbed his head.
He had two strong competitors now — the Card Creators Association and the Sharpshooters Association.
As for Array Masters …
"There's nothing to worry about."
Li Haoran said, "They do sell formations. However, very few people use formations. Moreover, a city protection formation can last for countless years!"
"So …
"Their output won't be very high."
Li Haoran was very calm.
Right now, they had a card creating department in Tian Du City and a lot of business from Flower Burial. Naturally, they had nothing to worry about.
"Okay."
Lu Ming understood now.
Well …
There were only two enemies left.
He already understood the Sharpshooters Association. What about the Card Creators Association …
Lu Ming furrowed his brows.
In terms of output …
The Sword Card Master Association could not be compared to the Card Creators Association. Although they had a branch in Tian Du City, they were still no match for the Card Creators Association.
No.
They could not be compared at all.
They could not be compared to the super associations in the world.
If they continued to be evaluated according to the previous years, the Sword Card Master Association would definitely be cannon fodder — the kind that would die a tragic death.
"What should we do then?"
Li Haoran was very worried as well.
"Let me think about it."
Lu Ming pondered deeply.
This was their first time participating in the Glory Grand Ceremony!
This was a good thing.
After all …
Even if they could not win an award, they could be on the shortlist.
However …
They had just annexed a branch of the Card Creators Association.
Therefore, if there were no accidents, the Card Creators Association would definitely not let them off! Especially if the Card Creators Association won an award …
Right.
This was it!
As everyone knew, some people liked to attack their allies during product announcements …
As everyone knew, some people would make political statements during their acceptance speeches …
→_→
Therefore …
If it was possible, Lu Ming would not give them this opportunity.
It was best not to let the Card Creators Association have this opportunity, even if it was in the hands of the Sharpshooters.
"What if we contact the Sharpshooters to cooperate?"
Lu Ming suddenly thought of this possibility.
The Card Creators Association was too powerful in the aspect of life vocations.
Perhaps …
They had the opportunity to cooperate.
"I'll try."
Li Haoran was tempted.
Hence …
He tried to contact them and soon received a reply — Go to the side and cool off.
"Cough."
Li Haoran coughed. "Perhaps our association is too small."
"Don't worry about it."
Lu Ming understood.
After all …
There were no benefits to cooperating with them. Of course, the Sharpshooters Association would not agree.
"Let me think about it …"
Lu Ming's gaze swept across the information of previous years.
Rules …
Techniques …
Life …
Production …
Suddenly …
Lu Ming's expression stirred slightly.
"Haoran.
"Tell me, what if the officials change the rules?"
Lu Ming asked.
"Huh?"
Li Haoran looked puzzled. "Change the rules?"
"Yes."
Lu Ming pondered deeply. "Of course, we are no match for the current economic output. However, if the officials change the rules, will we have a chance?"
"Yes."
Li Haoran was between laughter and tears.
It was not that simple to change the rules.
Even the top ten glory associations did not have the right to ask the higher-ups to change the rules! Much less a small Sword Card Master Association?!
"Master …
"We can't change it."
Li Haoran smiled bitterly.
"We can't change it.
"But the Card Creators Association can."
Lu Ming's words were profound. "If the higher-ups intervene, it might be difficult to change the rules. However, they should be able to influence the formulation of the rules."
"Huh???"
Li Haoran was puzzled.
Card Creators Association?!
How could they change the rules that were beneficial to them?!
Especially —
For the Sword Card Master Association.
"They will."
Lu Ming smiled faintly, hiding his achievements and reputation.
After a long time …
He had made up his mind. "Haoran.
"Yes.
"Where is Zhang Yang?"
"He sprained his waist. He is lying in bed."
"I'll go over."
“?”
…
That day.
Late at night.
An article suddenly became popular. The title was simple and crude — "Sword Card Master Association! A real association that is above the Card Creators Association and the Swordsman Association ".
The content was very simple.
It introduced the functions of the Sword Card Master Association in detail, telling everyone that the Sword Card Master Association = Card Creators Association + Swordsman and so on.
How powerful the Sword Card Master Association was.
How the Sword Card Master Association defeated other associations.
For example —
They had just acquired the Card Creators Association branch in Tian Du City.
Look.
According to this rhythm, they would annex other associations step by step. Sooner or later, the Card Creators Association would be destroyed.
After all …
The Card Creators Association could not surpass the Sword Card Master Association in any way. Although the Sword Card Master Association was still weak, this might be the future!!!
As for the Swordsman Association?
Similarly.
Afterward …
People were furious.
Why did they have to ride on us?!
Could the Card Creators tolerate it?
Could the Swordsman tolerate it?
Hence …
A large number of Swordsman and Card Creators began to retaliate.
Of course.
As for the content of the retaliation …
It was very interesting.
"Don't compare us with the Card Creators Association. The Swordsman Association is one of the top ten glory associations. How can the Card Creators Association compare to us? It's their business if they are destroyed. "
"That's right! Although the Sword Card Master can use swordplay, it doesn't matter … Saber Cultivators and Hammer Cultivators are basically the same … When have we ever been afraid? "
"That's right."
The Swordsman were as arrogant as ever.
The Sword Card Master Association?
They did not care at all.
The foundation of the Swordsman Association was the Sword Intent!!!
They did not have this.
They did not care about any vocation!
They compared the Card Creators Association, the nerdy lifestyle vocation with them …
Hehe.
What a joke.
“???”
The Card Creators were naturally furious.
Clearly, the Sword Card Master Association was the one who fired the first shot. Why did it turn to them?!
"What do Swordsman mean by this?!"
"Nothing."
"Then why did you scold us?"
"I didn't scold them. It's mainly because the Tian Du City branch has been annexed … You should seriously reflect on why we are implicated."
The Card Creators were speechless.
What do you mean by implicating you?!
Damn!
How is the Card Creators Association weak?
The Card Creators were furious. "We have won the most powerful lifestyle vocation award for several years."
The Swordsman. "Your association has been annexed."
The Card Creators were furious. "The cards that we created can be used by almost every cultivator. We have changed the entire world!"
The Swordsman. "Your association has been annexed."
The Card Creators were furious. "We …"
The Swordsman. "Your association has been annexed."
The Card Creators were speechless.
Afterward …
There was no afterward.
No matter what the Card Creators said, they would eventually get the same sentence.
Regardless of where they were.
Regardless of when.
Regardless of the technology forum.
Online community.
Be it Swordsman or other vocations, any argument or bickering would end with this sentence. The Card Creators almost went crazy.
Are all of you repeaters?!
Tian Du City …
They still had a president back then, okay?!
And …
A president!
It was a pity …
All the more they did not dare to say this.
Because …
It was even more miserable.
They were a big association but they only had one president left. Think about it. Was this something to be proud of?
Therefore …
There was only one way left for the Card Creators Association to prove themselves!!!
…
The Card Creators Association.
The higher-ups were having a headache now.
It was true.
They were well aware that the loss of the Tian Du City branch was a huge blow to them. However, in order not to be implicated, they could only give up!
However …
Unexpectedly …
Now that this article appeared …
"Who wrote it?"
"I don't know, but it is highly possible that it has something to do with Zhang Yang."
"…"
The vice president gritted his teeth. It was this guy again!
"Why don't you look for a few people …"
"Cough."
The assistant lowered his head. "I looked for them yesterday. They said that there are too many people who want to beat up Zhang Yang. They are now queuing up …"
The vice president was speechless.
Furthermore …
That was possible?!
Forget it.
This was a small matter.
At the moment …
The biggest problem was how to prove themselves!
They could bear the loss of a branch, but the rumor that 'Card Creators are far inferior to Sword Card Masters' was very fatal!!!
"Why do people believe such rumors?"
"Our Card Creators Association is so huge and the Sword Card Master Association is merely …"
"Our branch has been swallowed up."
"…"
Fine.
This was the topic again.
The Card Creators who were furious just now were speechless.
In the end …
They could only give a deep sigh. "How can we prove ourselves?"
"Go head-to-head with the Sword Card Master Association!"
The Card Creators were very certain.
This —
This was the only way.
Furthermore, they were very clear about the weakness of the Sword Card Master Association.
The Sword Card Master had all the functions of the Card Creators and Swordsman, right?
Right!
They had studied it.
That was true.
However …
This led to a problem.
As the Sword Card Masters were not focused enough, they were not focused enough!
Although their overall combat ability was strong enough, their swordplay was not as exquisite as Swordsman. Their card creating skills were not as valiant as the Card Creators!
And this …
This was their chance!
They could pull the Sword Card Masters together and place them on the same platform to compete!
Afterward …
They could defeat them!
This was the best proof!
As for whether their overall ability was strong or not, who cared?!
"They won't compete with us in terms of skills."
The Card Creators smiled bitterly.
They were not fools.
Currently, the Sword Card Master Association had the upper hand in terms of public opinion. Why would they compete with them?
"They will."
The vice president smiled faintly and looked at the advertisement of the Glory Grand Ceremony outside the window. "Isn't this a chance? A chance to force them to compete with us! "
This …
Glory Grand Ceremony?
The Card Creators glanced at it in confusion. Suddenly, they were elated.
Awesome!
…
PS: F * ck!
Don't do PS and dubbing. I'll beat you idiots to death. (# `Д ́)??!
