"Mr. Lu." The huge spiritual boat hovered in the sky outside the headquarters of the Wuwei Daoist Alliance, and it almost covered half of the sky."The Wuwei Daoist Alliance is a major force. Do you really think that three spots are enough for them?"
Sitting on the spiritual boat, the young man swirled the ruby-colored liquid in the exquisitely-made jade cup in his hand and said calmly, "In the past 30 years, the Wuwei Daoist Alliance has done nothing meaningful. The three spots are what they get for their inaction."
[TL Note: Inaction means Wuwei in Chinese. ]
He snickered."In my opinion, even three spots are more than what they deserve! If not for their good performance in the last Cultivation Realm Conference 30 years ago, they wouldn't be able to get even three spots!"
The white-bearded and white-haired old man standing beside him treated the young man with great respect.
...
Meanwhile, the Liuyun Daoist Palace and the Cloud Ocean Faction had also received the message from the Cultivation Realm.
In the Grand Hall of Liuyun Daoist Palace.
"Junior Sister Su... You're the youngest among us, and your cultivation strength is very high..." Xue Daolv looked at Su Tianji with a dejected expression."There's a spot in the Cultivation Realm Conference that requires the participant to be younger than 200 years... You're the best candidate. Would you..."
"No! You can go if you want."
"Ugh..." Xue Daolv's face turned stiff."But I'm 201 years now..."
"Just the round trip to Cultivation Realm Conference will take at least half a month." Su Tianji stood up and said with a snort, "Do you know how long it will take me away from the internet cafe?"
"Besides, if I get into the Cultivation Realm, it will take me one to two years." Su Tianji stared at Xue Daolv."One to two years; not one to two days! Senior Brother, you will have finished watching the entire Jade Dynasty while I fight in the Cultivation Realm!
"I'm doing it for our faction..." Xue Daolv's face fell.
"You should bring more disciples to the internet cafe if you're really concerned about our faction!"
Xue Daolv's face turned dark."If they all go there, we'll have no seats for ourselves!"
Su Tianji: "..."
Meanwhile in the Cloud Ocean Faction.
A white-haired old man stood in the center of the Grand Hall, and a row of high-spirited disciples of the Cloud Ocean Faction stood before him.
Their temperament, aura, and presences all showed that they had high cultivation strengths!
Ye Songtao glanced at them and asked the white-haired old man, "Senior Brother Yun, what do you think of these disciples? Do you think that they can attend the Cultivation Realm Conference on behalf of our faction?"
"Well!" Yun Hai looked at the young disciples in front of him with a smile."The three spots that the Cultivation Realm gave us have strings attached. They must be cultivators younger than 200 years old, 100 years old, and 40 years old respectively. As for the first candidate, we can't compete with Elder Su of the Liuyun Daoist Palace. Therefore, the Faction Master and I plan to choose a disciple under 40 years old to fill the last spot. Which one of you wants to go?"
Yun Lan shook his head.
Yun Lian shook his head too.
All the other disciples shook their heads as well.
Elder Yun froze."What's going on?!"
"We can never go to the Cultivation Realm in our lives, " Ye Xiaoye said while wobbling her head, "Our talent is not as good as the top-tier geniuses, so we depend on playing games to improve our cultivation strengths. We think the internet cafe is a much better place for cultivation than the Cultivation Realm, and it's full of talented people. I like it very much."
"Junior Sister, you spoke well!" Yun Lian praised her in a low voice.
"Quite good, right?" Ye Xiaoye said smugly, "I heard it from Mr. Fang and just changed a few words. They are simple and to the point!"
Elder Yun looked baffled.
Ye Songtao grabbed Ye Xiaoye's ear and shouted, "Come here!"
...
- Blue Flame Faction -
"Haoran... The newly made spiritual artifact is called a gun, right?"
"Master, I don't want to go to the Cultivation Realm!"
...
- The Yinglong Elder's Silver Dragon Cave Abode -
"Disciple..."
"No! I don't want to go there!"
"..."
...
In the end, Lan Mo froze when he received the name list.
[Xu Bai: 198 years old, Yuan River Realm]
"You're 198 years old and haven't reached True Lake Realm? What do you have to compete with the others?!"
He looked down.
[Lin Youque: 86 years old, Spiritual Spring Realm]
"Damn it!"
[Wang Zhi: 38 years old, Qi Condensation Realm]
Lan Mo smashed his fist onto the table and asked, "What's happening?!"
"Senior Brother, calm down!" At this moment, an old man wearing a deep-blue robe walked up."I heard from Haoran that there is a shop named the Origins Internet Club..."
Then, he whispered something into Lan Mo's ear.
"The Legend of the Sword and Fairy? Jade Dynasty? Sword control technique?" Lan Mo's face fell."They gave up on the Cultivation Realm Conference because of this stuff?"
Lan Mo said with a shivering beard, "The Three Saint Gates live in remote places and have no dealings with worldly business, but they enjoy such high status and are called 'Saints'. Do these disciples know why?! It's because they have access to the mystical Cultivation Realm! Are Xue Daolv and the others crazy? They want to give up this rare opportunity?!"
"Calm down, Faction Master!" The Daoist in the deep-blue robe said, "I've seen the guns and other new spiritual artifacts that Haoran made, and they are indeed unique! It's said that he got learned the new artifact-making technique from that shop, and it is called the 'scientific approach'!"
The Daoist in deep-blue said, "Tomorrow, I'll go there and have a look. Then, we'll make the decision."
"Okay..." Lan Mo's face was now as dark as ink."Wait! I'll go with you tomorrow! I'll see what tricks this shop is playing!"
...
"Ahh!" Fang Qi was quite frustrated since this unknown middle-aged man insisted on talking to him about everything from transportation to welfare for one night.
"Is this guy really the Emperor?" The middle-aged man didn't leave the shop until Fang Qi closed the door, and he left the internet cafe quite reluctantly.
Fang Qi glanced at his task and found that the target 'Binge-Watching TV Dramas in this World 2' was almost done.
The TV series 'Wind and Cloud' was quite good. It was in the wuxia category, but the techniques and skills in this series were quite powerful. Besides, it included all kinds of techniques from low to high, which was the most awesome feature about this TV series.
- On the next day -
Two old men, one in a deep-blue Daoist robe and the other in a sapphire Daoist robe, came into the shop.
The old man in the sapphire Daoist robe wore a tall hat, and his face was white while his eyebrows looked sharp. Also, he had a long beard. The old man in the deep-blue Daoist robe had his grey hair down, looking disheveled compared with his companion.
"The shop is in this remote corner?" The old man wearing the elegant robe showed disdain on his face.
Before they could step into the shop, a middle-aged man strode in with a large group of young people wearing the Cloud Ocean Faction's uniform, yelling, "Sir! Are the new episodes of Jade Dynasty released yet?"
