Night.
Outside Guangyuan City, in a mulberry forest.
"Greetings, Master."
Yuan Tu knelt in front of a sinister-looking old man wearing a scarlet robe.
"Very good, Little Thirteen, you are worthy of being this old man's proudest disciple. Not only did you make rapid progress in the Scarlet Blood Demonic Technique, you even managed to kill Prairie Spear Xu Ning this time, becoming famous in the world, jie jie …"
Old Demon Chi Xue laughed strangely, "It was not in vain for Master to stall the Wind and Rain Sect experts for you!"
"It is all thanks to Master's teachings."
Yuan Tu replied in a serious tone.
"But … why does Master feel a little uncomfortable looking at your expression?"
Old Demon Chi Xue grinned, suddenly took out a bell from his bosom and gently shook it.
Ding ling ling …
Amidst the clear and melodious sound of the bell, Yuan Tu directly knelt on the ground, a look of intense pain appearing on his face.
"Actually, in our evil path, most masters and disciples pay attention to the filial piety of a father, no, it is the filial piety of a master and disciple … but this old man has never cared about such things!"
Old Demon Chi Xue said with a smile, "You are cruel and merciless, a natural born demonic path disciple, but you met this old man and became this old man's disciple, so you must be poisoned with the Heart Devouring Insect. This insect is incurable and will only stop when you die … You must not disobey this old man's orders for the rest of your life!"
"This disciple absolutely has no intention of betraying you!"
Yuan Tu struggled to say.
But he knew that this was not of much use, because Old Demon Chi Xue was already half crazy!
Randomly finding excuses to torture or even kill disciples was the norm. Before him, he had already killed many disciples.
But Yuan Tu did not care, in fact, most of the pain was just an act.
Because of the insect, Old Demon Chi Xue was more at ease with his disciple and was very generous in teaching him cultivation techniques.
After half an hour of torture, Old Demon Chi Xue smiled and put away the bell, "Very good, Little Thirteen, you are worthy of being this old man's most optimistic disciple … You must remember, if you accept a disciple in the future, you must also torture him like this … Our bloodline is to pass on pain and resentment from generation to generation, jie jie …"
He laughed strangely for a moment before his expression suddenly became serious, "You are also a Grade 5 Martial Artist expert, you can be used now. Next, Master will bring you back to the sect. You must perform well, if you cannot complete this old man's task, this old man will kill you!"
"Yes."
Yuan Tu showed an appropriate amount of fear.
In fact, he wasn't afraid of killing or Gu worms at all …
Until death?
Hehe … Do players fear death?
"Old man, just you wait. After I empty your sect, I'll kill you first!"
In his heart, he swore a fierce oath.
…
Yuan Dongtian.
Xu Sheng was in his room, excitedly browsing through one video after another.
Ever since he had witnessed Lin Fan's battle, it was as if a new door had opened in his life.
Could ancient martial arts really be that powerful?
He eagerly searched for Lin Fan's videos online. If it weren't for his lack of financial resources, he would even want to follow in Lin Fan's footsteps and watch him challenge himself step by step to become a true ancient martial arts legend!
After looking at the computer, he casually turned on the TV and saw a news report.
"Recently, the number of foreign tourists visiting Great Xia has been on the rise, and the tourism industry is expected to reach a new high!"
"Due to the influx of foreign capital, cities have introduced a new round of expansion plans, and real estate stocks continue to rise!"
…
"I don't understand."
Xu Sheng didn't quite understand the economic situation, so he directly changed the channel. "The number of foreign students is increasing … I do feel this. Recently, when walking on the streets, I can feel that the probability of seeing foreigners has increased a lot …"
However, this had nothing to do with him. Seeing that there weren't any good cartoons or TV dramas, he began to lie on the sofa and play with his phone.
Xu Sheng first browsed some martial arts forums and found that Lin Fan's popularity was still very high. He couldn't help but feel gratified.
Then, he casually opened a game forum and found that it was discussing a particularly popular game — "Game In A Different World"!
"I heard that it's going to be open beta soon. I'm so looking forward to it!"
"Go and register early. The third beta testing equipment is now out of print. It's the kind that can't be bought even if you have money … If you get it, it'll be a profit."
"Wait, upstairs, are you stupid? You still need to register for open beta?"
"Has this game been reviewed? I still can't find its review number … "
"Hehe … You guys don't know a big secret. Let me tell you, do you know why there are suddenly so many foreigners? They all want to play this game … It's said that within the borders of Great Xia, the chances of becoming a 'Chosen One' are higher … That's why those capitalists are willing to buy houses here … "
Then, the post was quickly deleted.
"F * ck!"
Xu Sheng didn't quite believe it at first, but now that he saw the situation, he was a little convinced.
"What game is it that's so awesome? Why don't I play it too? "
He went to the official website of "Game In A Different World" and was first conquered by the video that looked like it was real photography. Then, he saw an announcement: "March 3rd, open beta!"
…
At the same time, Great Xia, Luo City.
In a luxurious villa in the suburbs.
"Young Master Edward, your enrollment procedures have been completed. From today onwards, you are an exchange student at Luochuan Boys High School."
An old butler in a tuxedo bowed. "Now, please enjoy your afternoon tea …"
"Before eating, we should pray …"
Edward clenched his fists. "The great Lord of Order, the God of Games, the Lord of Data, the Lord of Players …"
His posture was devout, like a true believer. Who knew how many psychologists he had sought out to give him hints?
Shockingly, these words were … spoken in the language of Great Xia.
"Very well … according to the advice given by the family's think tank, chanting this honorific name in Great Xia will increase the chances of being 'inspired' …"
The butler nodded in satisfaction. "If this succeeds, Young Master will have a bright future even if he's only the second son …
"If this succeeds …"
Edward took a deep breath. "How's the search for a home tutor going?"
"It's very difficult! The language of another world is a completely new language that only 'players' know at the moment, and most of the players on the surface are under the supervision of the Office of Special Investigations … "
The old butler said. "But according to rumors, chanting this honorific name in the language of another world that truly belongs to the gods might have the best effect …"
…
There were many, many people like Edward and his servant in Great Xia now …
All of them were eagerly waiting for the open beta of "Game In A Different World", even going so far as to make the most insignificant preparations mortals could.
Those preparations might not be of any use, but they had no complaints or regrets as long as they could get a chance!
Even if they weren't outstanding themselves, successful capitalists would always teach their descendants that it was only by making the best preparations that the heavens could bestow success upon them!
