For the next few days, the people in the Chinese plains still excitedly looked for related information regarding the ruins of the former Dragon Gate Inn. They wanted to learn about the forbidden lands that appeared for the first time in the game and also just who managed to obtain the treasures of the mysterious desert palace.

Since Dongfang Bubai started killing ruthlessly after he obtained Tiger Soul and many of the people who rushed to the desert were killed on the spot, they quaked in their boots when they heard about it.

From then on, Tiger Soul disappeared.

The people from Wind Assault Tower were also completely destroyed at that moment, and they retreated from the stage to compete for Tiger Soul.

Then, a few rumors spread in the game.

Some said that Tiger Soul was still in Dongfang Bubai’s hands. Some said that Wild Wolves came into the desert with more than one hundred of their elites. They might have already killed Dongfang Bubai and obtained Tiger Soul. This second opinion then caused the third rumor to be a little more believable—Wild Wolves had obtained Tiger Soul, but they ran into the sect master of Lovely Land at the borders of Flame Town. Both sides fought fiercely, and in the end, Tiger Soul ended up in Happy’s hands.

However, these people could not produce a battle replay to verify the rumors. In the end, no one knew the results. All news just remained as guesses and rumors.

But Happy’s appearance in the desert and even entered the desert palace still spread like wildfire among countless people. Countless players in the Chinese plains also placed their hopes in it. The power of Tiger Soul had already been verified. Instead of having it end up in the Wild Wolves’ hands, it would be better if it ended up in Happy’s hands. At the very least, the Wild Wolves would not be able to use Tiger Soul’s strength to cause chaos to the Chinese plains once more.

However, this news caused Lovely Land’s fame and Happy’s prestige to increase once more.

Happy entered deep into the forbidden land and was surrounded by people in the dao of heaven. Even if he was regarded with hostility by these great martial artists, he managed to obtain Tiger Soul. His wit and bravery was enough to make countless players impressed with him.

For the next few days, rumors spread madly in the game.

Wind Assault Tower and Lovely Land sent out information one after another. They said that more than half of the hundred elite Wild Wolves died, and the rest left the Chinese plains in a pathetic fashion.

All the Chinese players clapped their hands happily.

Lovely Land’s sect storage gained more than one hundred broken high-grade divine weapons in a go, along with dozens of materials that could be used to create high-grade divine weapons, as well as dozens of deemon vessels!

The stimulation of high-grade materials and high-grade divine weapons caused the Lovely Land members to go completely mad. Every day, they looked forward to being able to receive sect quests, and they gathered contribution points so that they could get the supreme-grade equipment that they looked forward to with greedy eyes.

Once this news traveled out, many of the master-level swordsmiths in the Chinese plains became restless. Supreme-grade materials were things that they could only hope to find. Even if they dug around in mines, they would not be able to find them, but Lovely Land had been able to obtain so many in one go. If they could get all of them, it would not be impossible for them to upgrade themselves to the level of a deity level swordsmith.

For a period of time, the game was in a ruckus, and everyone in the game trained their eyes on Lovely Land.

But at that moment, Lovely Land organized its greatest tournament ever since the day of its conception.

It was a tournament, a martial arts tournament!

This was a martial arts tournament that was limited only to the members of Lovely Land.

Even though it was only a sect tournament, and Happy as well as One Emperor were both excluded from the tournament, its popularity did not fall in the slightest. Instead, it became even more popular.

Three days before the competition, Lovely Land sent out invitations for heroes to the large sects in the Chinese plains to invite the sect leaders to watch the tournament.

Some of the sect leaders and famous players on the Dragon Rank, Phoenix Rank, and Famous People Rank who did not receive the invitation sent messenger pigeons on their own accord and asked whether they could come to watch the tournament.

On the last day before the tournament, the market in Beijing was packed with people. The streets and alleys were filled with people from all over the Chinese plains.

The restaurants were also filled with people.

Many of the players who started the game in Beijing stood at the balconies of the restaurants. They could clearly sense that the traffic in the streets had become much heavier, and most of the people who moved around were unfamiliar faces.

“If Beijing was this popular everyday, we would never have to worry that we can’t sell the old stuff we have in our storage.”

“Haha…”

“True, that.”

“I heard that most people have gone off to Lovely Land’s headquarters. If all of them come here, stalls would be set up until it reached the outside of the city.”

In a certain restaurant, the players who sat beside the window started discussing this with each other with various emotions in their hearts.

Suddenly, a man dressed in a scholar’s robe said, “Speaking of which, it’s strange. This time, this is just a tournament between the normal members of Lovely Land. Happy and One Emperor are away. The protagonists are not going to take part, so why did so many people still come over from the distance?”

When he said this, the people around the table shook their heads and laughed.

“Do you know who are going to join Lovely Land’s tournament this time?”

“Aside from Happy and One Emperor, who is worthy of being watched?” The one dressed in a scholarly robe opened his paper fan with a snap, and his face was filled with dumbfounded shock. “It has to do with us when it comes to who is strong and weak in Lovely Land. They won’t be very strong, either way. At most, we will see someone lucky who will get Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy. Speaking of which, aside from this, there is really nothing that can attract my attention.”

The group laughed again.

“Do you know how many people joined Lovely Land after Happy declared that the winner of the tournament would be able to get Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy?” The man across him picked up a horsebean leisurely from the plate and tossed it into his mouth. He started chewing on it.

The man in the scholar’s robe was slightly stunned.

“A total of seven hundred thousand people joined.”

He said this astonishing number with an indifferent tone, and the man in the scholar’s robe was finally unable to help himself but have his expression change.

This was because people outside the sect would usually have a hard time obtaining news. The other reason was because a sect that had just developed would usually have their numbers fluctuate frequently.

“When Lovely Land chased Wild Wolves out, there were only around one million and three hundred thousand members in the sect, but now, there are more than two million people in the sect!”

“…Looks like Lovely Land’s charisma when it was built specifically to fight against Wild Wolves was greater.” The man in the scholar’s robe pouted a little when he heard the number.

The people on the table put on amused and resigned expressions.

The man in the scholar’s robe finally realized that he seemed to be a little too ignorant. It seemed like everyone aside from him on the table knew everything about Lovely Land clearly. His words were a little improper, and he had his prideful expression fade away a little.

“Do you know why those one million and three hundred thousand people joined, and why those seven hundred thousand people joined?”

When he heard the question from his companion, the man in the scholar’s robe originally did not care about it. He just said in a matter-of-fact tone, “Those one million and three hundred thousand people naturally joined to fight against Wild Wolves, and those seven hundred thousand people…” When he said this, he came to a swift halt. A shocked expression gradually made its way to his face. He seemed to have realized something, and he cried out, “Are you saying these seven hundred thousand people all went for Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy?!”

When they saw the solemn expression on the man in the scholar’s robe, the people smiled. They knew that he had finally realized the difference between these seven hundred thousand people and the one million and three hundred thousand people.

No one answered, but the man in the scholar’s robe managed to obtain answers from the people’s expressions. His expression turned even more solemn.

These one million and three hundred thousand people were willing to sacrifice themselves to protect the Chinese plains. Their strengths varied, but if they wanted to fight for Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy, they must possess a certain degree of strength, and they must all be outstanding people in the game.

When he thought about this in depth, the person in the scholar’s robe sucked in a sharp breath.

“Isn’t that a bit ridiculous?!”

“Even if not all of the people among the seven hundred thousand people went for Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy, the number of those who really joined for the legacy is still terrifying.”

“Abstruse Spirit Sect is not a small sect in Beijing. Do you know how many people quit our sect in three days after Happy announced that he would give Heavenly Saber Song Que to the strongest person in Lovely Land?” The only woman sitting by the table asked.

Her question instantly attracted the attention of the man in the scholar robe.

“Sixty-three!”

Before the man in the scholar’s robe put on a nonchalant look, the woman in red put on an anguished smile and said, “After this group of people left, on the fourth day, Abstruse Spirit Sect turned into a small sect that cannot become part of the strong in Beijing.”

This time, the man in the scholar’s robe was not the only one who looked shocked. Even the others sitting by the table were surprised and puzzled.

“Among the sixty-three people were two vice sect masters, thirteen eldest, most of the branch masters, and all the elites in Abstruse Spirit Sect who can stand on their own as powerful players. Yesterday, Lovely Land added one hundred demon vessels, one hundred Illusion Life and Death Pills, and ten billion taels of gold as the reward for those ranked in the top one hundred in the competition. Our sect master and the remaining elites are already getting ready to dissolve the sect and join Lovely Land.”

The expressions of the people by the table changed.

“I’ve never heard of this news before…”

The man eating the horsebeans stopped tossing horsebeans into his mouth. He said in disbelief.

The woman in red said in anguish, “How could you? This news came from our sect master, and he’s trying his hardest to seal it. As for those who left the sect, they have been training everyday, and they never showed their faces. The people would never get to know them.”

The man eating the horsebeans frowned and said, “I only heard that most of the people who joined Lovely Land this time are the amazing players on the Dragon Rank and Phoenix Rank. They have major organizations and sects supporting them, but practically all the solo players have joined Lovely Land. There are some who have sects behind them also left their sects to join Lovely Land. Right now, Lovely Land has become the sect with the most members on the Dragon Rank, Phoenix Rank, and the Famous People Rank.

“Aside from Abstruse Spirit Sect, quite a number of influential sects in the Chinese plains were also unable to retain some of their elites.”

“But that’s only to be expected, Happy put in a lot of money in this tournament. Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy is practically a top-grade ultimate technique. The person who has it will definitely become an ultimate player who can rule over an area on his own. In fact, he might even be able to reach One Emperor’s level. Any person with an ambitious heart would definitely want to try their luck.”

“I heard that Rolling Snow Dragon, the third on Dragon Rank, and the former strongest on Phoenix Rank, Wind Voice, have both joined Lovely Land. Ever since Chivalry Sect was destroyed, Wind Void became a solo player. This time, she joined Lovely Land because she has decided to step on the competitive stage of the game once more! She went straight to Happy and told him that she joined the sect for Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy!

“Aside from Wind Void, the strongest in the evil path, Orochimaru, has also joined Lovely Land. What puzzled me is that Happy has actually allowed this person to join.

“I know Orochimaru. This person has always been eccentric and used every method in his disposal to do whatever he wanted, but after he joined Lovely Land, he became much more restrained in his actions. He did not dare to cause trouble as he pleased anymore. Happy might have given him a warning.”

“Happy might be the only person who can subjugate that snake…”

When he heard the horsebean-eating man and the woman in red’s conversation, the man in the scholar’s robe changed repeatedly before he fell completely silent. It was only at that moment that he learned that the game had turned completely inscrutable to him after he went into isolated training for a month.
