So Ye Cong decided to step up?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is this the battle for the strongest sci-fi writer on Blue Star?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Definitely!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So many top authors couldn’t defeat Chu Kuang, perhaps only Ye Cong has a chance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Will Chu Kuang accept?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He probably will, but it might take a long time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“After all, Chu Kuang just finished writing the Galactic Empire series.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even if he wants to release a new sci-fi work, he’ll need to prepare well for someone like Ye Cong.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s a hot topic online!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, at home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan couldn’t help but be a little surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He obviously knew who Ye Cong was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last year’s author rankings had just come out, and Ye Cong was one rank above him, a rival he had once aimed to surpass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t expect Ye Cong to challenge him to a literary duel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since his opponent was indeed the top figure in the sci-fi world, Lin Yuan didn’t want to refuse the invitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Winning would make him the new top dog in the sci-fi circle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s not about the empty title.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main thing is that dominating a popular fiction field would significantly boost his author ranking statistics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Winning would bring immense prestige.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that in mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan quickly responded through Chu Kuang’s blog account:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This decision instantly thrilled netizens worldwide watching the event!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’s accepted the challenge!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Kuang has accepted the challenge!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old rascal is never one to back down!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now everyone will witness the ultimate showdown of Blue Star’s sci-fi authors!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You set the date; I’m preparing a lengthy series.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Cong was quite courteous in giving Chu Kuang the upper hand after seeing his acceptance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having just finished the Galactic Empire series, Chu Kuang would surely need a break.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Cong didn’t want to take advantage of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, challenging Chu Kuang wasn’t entirely Ye Cong’s idea; he was somewhat pressured by his peers. However, he genuinely wanted to see the result of a head-to-head battle with his rival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Kuang quickly replied: “Before the end of the year.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To countless netizens, Chu Kuang was still the same Chu Kuang, not leaving himself any relaxed breathing room even after completing ten consecutive sci-fi victories recently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keep in mind that it’s already August.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they compete before the end of the year, only four months remain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This amount of time would never be enough for an ordinary sci-fi author to prepare a work that could hold its own against Ye Cong’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Chu Kuang is a marksman, isn’t he?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four months to write a book is no problem at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan even thought of going bigger, planning to complete the Three-Body Problem series in just four months.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s right!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing an opponent like Ye Cong, Lin Yuan immediately thought of the Three-Body Problem series!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s a pinnacle work of Eastern sci-fi on Earth; in a world like Blue Star, themed around Eastern culture, it’s undeniably a powerful weapon!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This isn’t to say the Galactic Empire series is inferior to The Three-Body Problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this were Earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judging purely on historical achievements and status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Galactic Empire series is untouchable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Galactic Empire series is primarily rooted in Western philosophy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its systems, too, adopt Western concepts; and because it was created so early, many of its scientific ideas are outdated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sci-fi novels from decades ago obviously can’t compare in scientific speculation to more recent works.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that’s a product of the times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It doesn’t necessarily mean later works are inherently better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Three-Body Problem series was created more recently, with more precise technological imagination, and is distinctly an Eastern mindset at its core, making it more accessible to Blue Star readers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire series contains three parts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are still four months left this year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan definitely has enough time to finish writing all three parts and release them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan even plans to finish it within one month; after all, the Three-Body Problem series is only about 900,000 words in total.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan just needs to write 30,000 words a day to complete the Three-Body Problem series.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Chu Kuang:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Writing 30,000 words a day?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That would be a walk in the park, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The public declaration of writing before the end of the year simply allows Ye Cong some preparation time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Cong let Chu Kuang set the date to give Lin Yuan time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan, publicly saying “by the end of the year,” was actually concerned that too short a time would leave Ye Cong unprepared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s the confidence of a writing powerhouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When you decide to do something, just do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he decided to write the Three-Body Problem series, Lin Yuan now had something to do every day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His family also knew Lin Yuan took on this literary duel, so they hardly disturbed him other than calling him to meals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Three-Body Problem Part One.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Three-Body Problem Part Two, The Dark Forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Three-Body Problem Part Three, The End of Death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These stories are slowly taking shape under Lin Yuan’s pen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Lin Yuan, the most challenging part was the plot of Part One.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because Part One has a Cultural Revolution backdrop, which Blue Star readers definitely wouldn’t know about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bringing them into the story would be troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan ultimately decided that the solution was a parallel world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Lin Yuan has already mentioned many of Earth’s dynasties in this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He might as well bring over that era’s story too, as he plans to create more stories with special Earth backgrounds in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Earth.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan wants to introduce this place to readers through Chu Kuang’s pen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is a parallel world of Blue Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the minds of Blue Star readers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth will be a world entirely created by Chu Kuang, similar to Blue Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That world has its own historical evolution, and everything will seem remarkably plausible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if it genuinely existed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This isn’t just a whimsical idea from Lin Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After writing works like The Legend of the Condor Heroes and The Return of the Condor Heroes, Lin Yuan kept the Song Dynasty background of Earth, already planning for this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To create a novel world called Earth on Blue Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Han Dynasty will appear under Chu Kuang’s pen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Three Kingdoms will appear under Chu Kuang’s pen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Western Jin, Eastern Jin, and Southern and Northern Dynasties will all feature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The creation of Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing is also in Lin Yuan’s plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Lin Yuan really dislikes the Qing Dynasty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan prefers the Han and Tang Dynasties more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blue Star readers will never know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That Earth under Chu Kuang’s pen really exists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This literary duel captured the attention of countless people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the PK between Chu Kuang and Ye Cong, related news from major media outlets was everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Chu Kuang vs. Ye Cong!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Battle for Blue Star Sci-Fi King!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Will Ye Cong retaliate for the sci-fi community against Chu Kuang?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Chu Kuang’s sci-fi challenge continues worldwide!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The true big boss of the sci-fi circle has arrived!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If Chu Kuang wins, will his author ranking continue to rise?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Experts Analysis: If Chu Kuang wins, he could reach seventh in the author rankings!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Several sci-fi authors back Ye Cong!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the news describes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s no shortage of people supporting Ye Cong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the sci-fi circle’s last ditch effort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Ye Cong wins, the sci-fi circle can regain some ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Ye Cong loses?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it will be Chu Kuang calling the shots in the sci-fi world!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>————————————\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>ps: What are the plot holes in this book?
