Chapter 807: Bronze Member

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Sending eight hundred Huashan Sect members to Shangri-La was just an idea Li Yi came up with on a whim. He had never expected Scumbag Wang to be able to cause too much of a commotion. Li Yi was only sending them over to have some fun as a sign of respect for The Mountain.

Despite Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s relentless counterattacks and schemes, Li Yi had never made a move. He was only just looking on from the sidelines.

Just like now, he had fled over to the Emperor’s Capital, fully focused on doing his Hall of Fame quest.

Based on his actions, in Tyrant Sword King the fifth eyes, it undoubtedly felt like Li Yi had become a coward.

‘He still doesn’t dare to take any action on me after all that? That obviously means that he’s afraid of me.’

As the Shangri-La’s progression went back on track and even looked to be stabilizing, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth started to get even more arrogant.

On the World Channel, he would send Qian’er some Rainbow Smoke-flowers1every hour.

Sending flowers over the World Channel was extremely expensive, it took three hundred thousand gold just to do it once. Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s actions were no doubt another challenge towards Li Yi.

Tyrant Sword King the FIfth spammed flowers for the entire day, but Li Yi did not bother giving a response. In the end, even though he was not worried, there were other people who started worrying for him.

Specifically, Brother Windcloud Nine was worrying for him.

“Brother, do you need some financial assistance? I’ll send you two hundred million for now, you need to spam him back! F*cking hell, this brat is too arrogant, we can’t lose to him.”

In the past life, out of the infamous “Ten Unsolvable Mysteries” of King of Pantheon, “How much money did Brother Windcloud Nine have?” was ranked third on the list. No one knew how much money he had since he had never run out of money before.

“Qian’er told me to ignore him.” When faced with the kindness of Brother Windcloud Nine, Li Yi merely gave a simple reply.

The reason LI Yi did not respond to the challenge this time was actually due to Qian’er’s request. Qian’er felt that if Li Yi started to respond now, it would give other people the perception that she really had some sort of relationship with King Fifth. She would feel disgusted by those rumors, so she chose to just ignore all his advances completely.

To Li Yi, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s every move was merely the poor guy dancing in his palm. When facing someone who was about to lose it all within a few more days, why would he bother getting angry?

There was obviously no need to; Li Yi only saw this whole act as something that was pitifully humorous.

Now, he was going all-in on the “Hearts of the Ancient Kings” quest.

Unlike the previous quest requirement of just beating the boss, the Hearts of the Ancient Kings quest had a tedious and complicated progression process.

For example, when fighting the Frost Emperor, the player needed to eat its Great Frost attack head-on five times without dying. In addition to that, players also had to kill it within 5 seconds of its Frost Aura activating. Only when both conditions are met could the player collect the heart for the quest.

In order to complete the “Hearts of the Ancient Kings” quest, players had to run all 25 dungeons at least once. Luckily, if the player was equipped with the “Hall of Fame Equipment Set” and the “Emperor’s Sword”, when they enter the dungeon, they would be sent directly to the final boss. This allowed them to skip through all the mobs and sub-bosses of the dungeons.

Just based on his OP equipment attributes alone, Li Yi managed to finish up ten of the 5-man dungeons within a mere five hours. However, when it came time to fight the “City in the Sky”, due to the fact that the quest required Li Yi to have the Sky Emperor suck him into its stomach and to kill it as it was sucking him in, Li Yi had to retry more than a dozen times. However, he had always just lacked that little bit of DPS, failing to beat the Sky Emperor whilst satisfying the conditions.

It was not a matter of his skills, it was purely an issue of DPS.

After trying once more, he still failed. In the end, Li Yi could only ask for help, calling Qian’er to come over.

With an OP DPS player like Qian’er supporting him, the moment Li Yi was sucked into Sky Emperor’s stomach, the two coordinated their ults and easily killed off Sky Emperor.

Now that he had settled the Sky Emperor, Li Yi breezed through all the remaining few 5-man dungeons within just a couple of tries each. By the end of the day, he had already completed all twenty small dungeons. Next, he had to tackle the five Party-level Dungeons.

That night, news of the Huashan Sect wreaking havoc at Shangri-La had left Li Yi completely shocked speechless.

In the Shangri-La in the game, there were varying levels of memberships, and in turn, varying levels of services that could be enjoyed by the players. The lowest tier membership was the Bronze Membership, whilst the highest was the Diamond Membership.

As for Scumbag Wang and his gang, they were not anything, not even the lowest tier “Bronze Members”. Hence, they could not even enter the lowest tier entertainment centers. They could only sit outside and admire the scenery.

The whole commotion started because Scumbag Wang requested that Tyrant Sword King the Fifth gifted him and his gang “Diamond Memberships”. In the end, as expected, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth did not even bother responding to their request. On the contrary, he had ordered to have all the Huashan Sect members chased out of the premises.

This order of his had obviously pissed off Scumbag Wang.

Needless to say, Leader Scum was a prideful man. If this was any average Joe, when the host tells them they were not welcome, they would get self-conscious and vacate the premises. However, Scumbag Wang was not like any average Joe.

‘The more you don’t want me here, the more I’m gonna stay here.”

The Shangri-La map was a safe zone. On this map, it only allowed players to spar and not PK. Tyrant Sword King the Fifth wanted to chase Scumbag Wang’s crew away, but if Scumbag Wang and friends did not want to leave, there was really nothing he could do on short notice.

Changing a map from a safe zone to a PK-ready map took ten days. Furthermore, it required a fee of 5,000,000 gold.

“Don’t wanna give us memberships? Brothers, go!”

After being rejected by Tyrant Sword King the Fifth, Scumbag Wang immediately sent out orders. Instantly, the eight hundred Huashan Sect players started to strip in unison as they started partying around in nothing but their “Novice’s Underwear”.

As this group of scumbags ran wild, they also shamelessly reached their hands out at people crotch, screaming like maniacs while they were at it. The whole scene looked… Disgusting…

What was “Shangri-La”? It was supposed to be an extremely elegant, extremely grandiose, extremely dignified high-class entertainment center. With Scumbag Wang’s group’s single appearance, it had utterly destroyed Shangri-La’s whole image…

If it was only a couple of lechers it would be fine. The problem was that eight hundred Huashan Sect members were no small number. When all of them gather around for a streaking session, they would definitely leave a long-lasting impression.

As Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was furiously trying to deal with these Sect members, in this Safe Zone map, Scumbag Wang and company were temporarily invulnerable entities. They completely disregarded Tyrant Sword King the Fifth as they tackled every girl they saw and spat at every guy they meet. The picturesque otherworldly atmosphere within Shangri-La had been torn to shreds.

As Li Yi saw the streaking videos on the official forums, he did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Li Yi’s original intent was to have Scumbag Wang bring a few people over to gross out Tyrant Sword King the Fifth. He had no idea Scumbag Wang would be able to leave such a strong impact. At this point, he was honestly impressed…

The next day, when Li Yi came online, he received even more updates on the situation at Shangri-La. After being trolled by the Huashan Sect for an entire night, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth finally gave in. He gifted every single Huashan Sect member a “Bronze Membership”, attempting to resolve this whole problem.

“Bronze Memberships” did not open up a lot of services for the membership owners, the chicks in charge of servicing them were also quite average. However, it was enough to leave Scumbag Wang and company satisfied. After happily enjoying Shangri-La for a night, they stopped wreaking havoc.

However, this all changed after Li Yi came online.

Li Yi secretly told Leader Scum that the Diamond Members enjoyed way more perks than the Bronze Members. The chicks sent to service them were not some random cute college girls, they were either a B-list and C-list celebrities or models from top beauty pageants. Any single one of them would have been leagues above Sister Huahua…

“Imma f*ck this son of a b*tch King Fifth, how dare he hide that from us! Brothers, go!”

As Scumbag Wang’s anger was reignited, the eight hundred Huashan Sect members once again commenced their streaking. Since they now had the identities of “Bronze Members”, this time it was even more convenient for them to wreak havoc…

A short while later, word of Scumbag Wang’s crew getting free “Bronze Memberships” just by running wild spread. Then, various players who wanted to take advantage of that ‘exploit’ also started to come to Shangri-La. They did not need to pay an entrance fee right now anyways. When anyone can come on, anyone can also wreak havoc. If they do not get their memberships, all they needed to do was to stay there.

Tyrant Sword King would definitely be able to deal with a couple of trolls, but now that there were tens of thousands of players were wreaking havoc at the same time, could he just stand back idly?

Of course he could not! Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was not a charity worker, there was no way he was going to continue doing a loss-making business.

After being bombarded with wave upon wave of trolls, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth steeled his resolve as he temporarily closed down the entire Shangri-La map. Then, he initiated “The Strongest Defense System” – sealing off the free entrance that was open to the masses.

With that, only the players who have registered as a member could enter the Shangri-La map.

Scumbag Wang and company’s “Bronze Memberships” were also revoked. In addition, when they were kicked off the map, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth had also gave them an additional service, sending them back to their continent free of charge.

After the whole Scumbag Wang incident concluded, although Tyrant Sword King the Fifth had suffered some losses, since the foundation of Shangri-La was already done, this small incident did not really harm its foundation. On the contrary, this whole incident had even made the number of players who know about “Shangri-La” even greater.

…

“We only managed to buyback 45% of our stocks, we couldn’t get the rest.”

As Wang Leitian sat down and listened to his secretary’s report in his office, he had a curious expression on his face.

After overissuing the stocks, Wang Leitian had originally prepared to just turn this into a shell company and flee. However, now that the whole Shangri-La project had made a comeback, saying that they “struck gold” would be an understatement. This ‘accident’ had suddenly disrupted Wang Leitian’s carefully crafted plans.

As for the whole plan of overissuing stocks, Wang Leitian had not even brought it up with the Fifth.

Wang Leitian took a big puff of smoke as he said slowly, “We didn’t manage to get it back even at double the price?”

The secretary just shook her head, as she said meekly, “Director Wang, I suspect there’s someone trying to pull a hostile takeover on us…”

Wang Leitian waved his hand, signaling for the secretary to leave.

Once the secretary left the room, Wang Leitian pulled out his phone and made a phone call.

“Is this Shen Zhongming Detective Agency? How’s the investigation on Su Xiaomeng going?

“What? She’s a trophy wife? Okay, send me all the information you have on her later.”

…

After three days, Li Yi’s the Hearts of the Ancient Kings quest was almost completed. The first four Party-Level Dungeons had already been completed. Now, all he needed to do was finish the final “Tomb of Kings”.

At this time, Li Yi suddenly received a phone call from Shen Lang.

“Boss, recently there’s someone looking into Su Xiaomeng. I keep feeling like it has something to do with you.”

“Who’s this Su Xiaomeng?”

“She’s Brother Windcloud Nine’s wife – Sister Windcloud Nine.”
