Chapter 97: Xiong Ba: I Am the Supreme Ruler of the World (6/7, Requesting Flowers and Ratings)
Ye Hei: "Dangerous? Tell me more about the danger—I get the feeling it's not that simple."
Su Xiao: "As long as you're not dead, that's all that matters."
Ye Hei: "After hearing that, I'm even more worried. By the way, does our chat group have a dimension-travel function? Can someone come save us!"
Tianxia Bazhu: "Hmph, coward. If it were me, I wouldn't fear any enemy."
Su Xiao: "Yes, yes, yes—the boss of Tianxia Hui, Xiong Ba, is so awesome. Too bad you're just a weakling; even if you went along with Ye Hei, you'd be useless against the dangers he's faced."
Ye Hei: "Xiong Ba—do you know Sanfen Guiyuan Qi?"
Xiong Ba: "Aren't you from another world? How do you know I'm familiar with the Three-Part Return-to-Origin Technique? Hmph, as expected, you people dabble in strange arts, don't you?"
Ye Hei: "Sanfen Guiyuan Qi—seven parts hard work, ninety parts luck. Everyone who's read Fengyun knows that!"
Su Xiao: "Ye Hei, no need to explain to this old man—ancient people are too rigid, you can't make them understand. @Qianfanti Ailu, this really is another world—welcome to our chat group."
Ying Zheng No. 2: "Ancient people are rigid? I feel insulted!"
Yue Buqun: "I also feel insulted. Only those who live in their own world refuse to believe in new things. It seems this so-called Tianxia Bazhu is nothing special."
Ying Zheng: "I agree. It seems Sect Master Yue's horizons have broadened considerably lately."
Xiong Ba: "Who are you? Ying Zheng died a thousand years ago—pretending to be a dead man, do you think I'm afraid? If you've got the nerve to play ghostly tricks, come try my methods!"
Yue Buqun: "Big talk. I wonder if you can back it up. Too bad the chat group has no arena function—we'd have to travel there to fight, which is a hassle."
【Ding, arena function activated.】
Arena Function:
1. Sparring (no points required, challenge freely)
2. Wager Duel (freely set point stakes—the loser's points go to the winner.)
Su Xiao: "There it is—words become law. Could Sect Master Yue be the group admin?"
Yue Buqun: "That's impossible, right? @Xiong Ba, let's wager duel—ten points per match. Dare you?"
Xiong Ba: "What's there to fear? Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
Xiong Ba: "But how do you earn these points?"
Yue Buqun: "Any valuable item can be exchanged for points. Try it."
Fengyun.
Tianxia Hui.
Xiong Ba's expression turned grave. He looked at Wen Chouchou and said: "Chouchou, send someone to bring a hundred jin of gold."
"Yes, Boss."
Moments later, a Tianxia Hui member carried gold over, placed it before Xiong Ba, then left.
Xiong Ba dismissed Wen Chouchou and stepped up to the gold.
"Exchange."
The next instant, the gold vanished before his eyes.
Xiong Ba's gaze sharpened: "It really disappeared!! Could this be real? Are they truly from another world?"
Opened the chat group.
Yue Buqun: "Xiong Ba, you don't have any points? Should I, the Sect Master, lend you ten?"
Xiong Ba: "No need. I am the boss of Tianxia Hui, commanding a hundred thousand followers. Ten points? Not worth mentioning."
Yue Buqun: "Good. Then step onto the arena."
Ye Hei: "Sect Master Yue is so arrogant. By the way, can Sect Master Yue really beat Xiong Ba?"
Su Xiao: "Don't judge Sect Master Yue by old standards. He's been in the chat group for a while—his strength is nothing like what you imagine."
Meihuo Tutu: "Aren't you human soul masters?"
Su Xiao: "Of course not. Are you Xiao Wu?"
Xiao Wu: "You know that too?!"
Qianfanti Ailu: "Wow, so amazing—Miss Su knows so much."
Su Xiao: "As a transmigrator, you naturally know more. We have another transmigrator in the group—@Zhang Taixuan, you're lurking again. Your 2D wife joined—aren't you going to welcome her?"
Zhang Taixuan: "【Shrugs】 Welcome, welcome."
Qianfanti Ailu: "What's a 2D wife? Are you talking about me? I'm curious!!"
Xiao Wu: "【Afraid】 Me?"
Ye Hei: "Another transmigrator? This chat group has two transmigrators—and you didn't fight?"
Su Xiao: "He's unbeatable. I'm out. @Ye Hei, by the way, Zhang Taixuan is from your world—he's from tens of thousands of years ago in your timeline."
Ye Hei: "So you're a senior. Greetings, Senior."
As they spoke, the arena opened.
【Ding, arena opened. Would you like to watch?】
Zhang Taixuan did not refuse.
The next instant, a vast, enormous arena appeared before him—more like an endless world than an arena.
In the center of the arena, Xiong Ba and Yue Buqun stood facing each other.
Above the void, Zhang Taixuan, Su Xiao, Ye Hei, and others hovered in midair, gazing downward.
Though far away, they saw every detail below with perfect clarity.
