In the depths of his being, Lufeng sensed that he was about to break free from this confinement. With the arrival of the System's voice, Lufeng felt a wave of relief wash over him; the joy of achievement is something only those who have experienced it can understand.
However, Lufeng did not let excitement overwhelm him; everything was under control. One must remain calm and composed. Being anxious and reckless would only lead to failure. Others are not fools, and Lufeng did not consider himself a genius. The positioning strategies he devised last night had consumed a significant amount of his brain cells, and this could be seen as a normal return on investment. If he failed, then all would be in vain.
Lufeng's principle was to never engage in an unprepared battle; either he wouldn't fight at all, or if he did, he would give it his all. Regarding this new skill acquisition, there was no room for failure—only success was acceptable. Time waits for no one, and others would not grant him a second chance. He could vaguely sense that trouble was approaching.
As for the skill name, Lufeng had already thought it through and decided to name the skill—Phantom Form (30% increased Mobility while moving).
“Ding!”
System Notification: Dear Player, congratulations on successfully naming your skill. As you are the first to comprehend the New Skill, the System will reward you with 100 gold coins. Would you like to reveal your identity?
Given yesterday's video, it was impossible to keep it hidden. Lufeng helplessly replied, “Whatever!”
“Ding!”
System Notification: Dear Player, the System is unable to verify. Would you like to reveal your identity?
Lufeng felt a wave of frustration; he certainly didn't want to argue with the System. After some thought, he chose 'No.' He didn't want to be bothered by the System's incessant notifications and also preferred not to draw too much attention.
“Ding!”
System Announcement: Congratulations to xx for being the first to comprehend the New Skill—Phantom Form. A reward of 100 gold coins has been granted as encouragement.
After three sounds of System Announcement, all players were in an uproar. Those with short-sightedness were envious of the 100 gold coins, but more were envious of this skill.
Just then, the System Announcement rang out again.
“Ding!”
System Announcement: Congratulations to Royal Beauty for being the first to reach level 20, rewarded with 200 gold coins as encouragement.
……
Another three sounds of System Announcement followed, and almost all players were envious. Before game currency could be exchanged for world currency, the current 200 gold coins were absolutely worth tens of thousands or even more on the black market. The name Royal Beauty was deeply etched in every player's mind.
Having just comprehended New Skill, Lufeng seemed to see a goal: to surpass Royal Beauty. That glance had put immense pressure on him.
Just as he was about to withdraw, the System Announcement rang out continuously.
“Ding!”
System Announcement: Congratulations to Ba Dao for being the second to reach level 20, rewarded with 100 gold coins as encouragement.
……
“Ding!”
System Announcement: Congratulations to Extreme Radiance for being the third to reach level 20, rewarded with 50 gold coins as encouragement.
……
This time, the System is back on track. Last time, the third player to level up to level 10 received a reward of 100 gold coins, which surprised many players.
After hearing the System Announcement, and not hearing Aunt Wang's name, Wang Xiaojing felt a wave of disappointment and said anxiously, “Lufeng, let’s hurry up and level up. It seems that every 10 levels comes with a gold coin reward. My brother can’t keep up with this fast pace anymore; the future of the studio depends on you now.”
Seeing Wang Xiaojing's pleading eyes, Lufeng helplessly replied, “I want to leave too, but I can’t anymore; they’re coming.”
“What’s coming?” Gao Chao and the others asked in confusion.
Lufeng didn’t answer directly but gestured with his eyes towards the front.
At that moment, Laugh at My Madness approached with a group of over ten people, clearly looking for trouble.
Wang Xiaojing was alarmed and immediately tried to contact Aunt Wang, but Aunt Wang was far away in Songshan, and it was impossible for her to reach Dunhuang. It would take at least an hour for back and forth communication, so she had no choice but to give up on calling for help.
Before he even arrived, they could hear Laugh at My Madness laughing loudly: “Haha, Lufeng, you managed to escape twice. Today, let’s see how you can run away. Brothers, surround them!”
With a wave of his hand, Laugh at My Madness had nine men and two women encircle Lufeng and his group.
Some onlookers who were originally about to leave became curious when they saw someone causing trouble for Lufeng, so they stayed to watch the ‘show,’ with some already starting to record it.
“It seems that kick didn’t teach you a lesson! What? Do you still want to taste my Foshan Shadowless Kick?” Lufeng patted his leg and teased.
Seeing the confident expression on Laugh at My Madness, an ominous premonition rose in Lufeng’s heart.
Sure enough, Laugh at My Madness sneered and said nonchalantly, "If you have the ability, then I don't mind being in pain for another day. But you are destined not to level up today. The skill you just comprehended is quite strong, right? Come on, bring it on! But unfortunately, we can't PK today. If I don't crush your eggs, I won't be surnamed Wang. Haha, I've even specially invited two female experts. Don't you think it would be quite a spectacle to see the two top beauties on the Leaderboard exposed online? Haha~"
Looking at the two Female Players beside Laugh at My Madness, Lufeng suddenly realized that Asking Heaven System had implemented many protections for Female Players, but there were no restrictions on intimate contact between them. If they made some inappropriate moves, it was also within the System regulations. It seemed he wanted to embarrass Murong Xiaoxiao and Wang Xiaojing.
Laugh at My Madness did not attack immediately; he wanted to slowly torment Lufeng, gradually breaking down his psychological defenses to achieve his twisted sense of pleasure.
"Haha, scared now? If you kneel down and beg for mercy right now and introduce me to those two girls behind you, not only will I let you go, but I'll also give you some money. What do you say? Haha~" Laugh at My Madness laughed wildly.
Lufeng smiled calmly: "With your intelligence, you probably don't even know what game you're playing, right? If you dare to let those two girls touch my... person, I will definitely hunt you down out of Asking Heaven."
"Just based on you?" Laugh at My Madness said disdainfully. Seeing that Lufeng showed no signs of fear, he felt he had to take action to save face.
"Desolate, Demon Hunter, control those two girls! Everyone else, come at me together and crush this guy's eggs!" With a command from Laugh at My Madness, everyone moved into action.
Lufeng did not expect that Laugh at My Madness would act so quickly. He hurriedly called out, "Wait!"
"Speak quickly; if you don't agree to my terms, I'll crush your eggs first and let you experience the sorrow of having your eggs crushed," Laugh at My Madness impatiently interrupted his subordinates' actions.
Lufeng was furious; this kind of provocation had completely enraged him. However, he had to suppress his anger—impulsiveness was the devil. Lufeng needed to face everything calmly while constantly thinking of countermeasures. Looking at the crowd outside, he suddenly noticed the leader of a large family—Extreme Radiance. He couldn't help but ponder his purpose for being here while deliberately stalling for time: "You just said that if I agree to your terms, you'll give me some money? How much? If it's too little, I won't agree."
Hearing Lufeng's words, Wang Xiaojing became very angry. She was about to argue but was stopped by Murong Xiaoxiao. If anyone understood Lufeng, it was definitely Murong Xiaoxiao.
"Xiaoxiao, why are you holding me back? Your brother doesn't want us anymore," Wang Xiaojing said angrily.
Murong Xiaoxiao blinked and shook her head.
"Hmph," Wang Xiaojing snorted coldly, choosing to observe the situation, while Gao Chao and the others prepared for battle. As soon as Lufeng gave the order, they would fight to the death.
Laugh at My Madness also showed a hint of interest, thinking that Lufeng had come to a realization. He teasingly asked, "What do you think they're worth?"
After asking, he felt it was inappropriate and held up five fingers. "How about fifty thousand?"
Lufeng shook his head and calmly replied, "In my heart, they are both priceless treasures."
Hearing Lufeng's words, Wang Xiaojing smiled happily, while Murong Xiaoxiao remained calm, as if this was perfectly normal.
Laugh at My Madness was furious: "Are you messing with me?"
Lufeng ignored Laugh at My Madness and waited for a long time without seeing Extreme Radiance take action. He could only laugh out loud at Extreme Radiance outside the crowd, saying, "I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Extreme Radiance was taken aback and then smiled. "Do I know you?"
"Does it count as knowing each other now? Since we do know each other, you shouldn't just stand by," Lufeng said meaningfully, cursing inwardly: You're an old fox too; what are you playing at? If you weren't here to win me over, would you be bored enough to come here?
Extreme Radiance laughed heartily: "Haha, your temperament suits my taste. How about this: join my gang, and in the future during the National Championship, I'll make you an elder and give you a monthly salary of fifty thousand. What do you say?"
Extreme Radiance finally revealed the purpose of his visit and admired Lufeng's courage, never once glancing at Laugh at My Madness.
Just as Laugh at My Madness was about to get angry, he lost his temper upon recognizing who had arrived. While others might not know about the Extreme Radiance Dynasty family, he was well aware of its power. However, if he didn't say something, it would seem awkward; he could only grit his teeth and say, "Um... Extreme Radiance, are you sure you want to intervene in today's matter?"
Seeing someone call him by name made Extreme Radiance unhappy. He glared with wide eyes: "Give me a break!"
Laugh at My Madness did not expect Extreme Radiance to be so unyielding, so he had no choice but to find a way to back down himself: “Lufeng, today you are lucky, but next time you may not be so fortunate…”
“Come back!” Extreme Radiance called out to Laugh at My Madness in annoyance, saying bluntly, “From today on, no, from this moment on, Lufeng is my friend. If you dare to harm him or have any designs on his woman, you will be my enemy, do you understand?”
Seeing that Lufeng was still hesitating, Extreme Radiance had to play the good guy for now. He thought to himself: Lufeng, oh Lufeng, no one has ever made me value them so much over the years. If you agree, that’s fine; if not, for the sake of future competitions, I can’t keep you around.
“You… you are being too unreasonable!” Laugh at My Madness said with a sense of grievance.
Looking at Laugh at My Madness's expression at that moment, Lufeng and the others felt quite pleased. Just a minute ago he was threatening them, and now he was the one seeking pity from others—truly a case of ‘thirty years on the east bank of the river, thirty years on the west bank.’
Hearing Laugh at My Madness's words, Extreme Radiance laughed disdainfully: “Oh! You know what it means to be unreasonable? I’m bullying you; what are you going to do about it?”
Laugh at My Madness's pride completely crumbled. He shot a fierce glare at Lufeng, waved his hand to his subordinates, and shouted, “Let’s go!”
“Haha~” Gao Chao and the others laughed heartily, but Lufeng couldn’t find it funny. He was also contemplating how to repay this enormous favor owed to Laugh at My Madness. Lufeng knew well that one must have principles in life; when you’re out in the world, debts must be repaid; otherwise, you will lose even more.
