"Since when did dog shit learn to talk? Did your head get slammed in a door? Are your eyes just for decoration? You've never even come close to seeing what a top-tier player looks like! They're just hiding their strength, and you really think they're easy targets? You're just a half-empty bucket making a lot of noise, only knowing how to run your mouth here. You don't have the luck or the skill, so you can only be bitter about others, huh? If you have the free time to talk trash, you might as well go back and practice your pathetic amateur skills so you don't embarrass yourself. You're dying of laughter? Then hurry up and drop dead, you stupid idiot."
"Sichuan sisters scoring big points! Keep roasting them if you're this good!"
These were all the bullet screen comments the players could see.
The 12 players present at the scene could also see them, though what they saw was a streamlined version consisting entirely of information directly related to themselves.
This meant that regardless of whether your performance was good or bad, the praise and criticism of others would unfold in real-time right before your eyes. Like an invisible thread, it constantly tugged at your mindset, making it easy to lose your composure if you weren't careful.
Qi Xu clearly noticed that the girl in the corner had visibly paled a bit more. She looked somewhat constrained, obviously having seen some unpleasant comments. Her fingers gripped tighter, making her even more nervous than before.
But there were also weirdos with completely opposite reactions.
Xie Shaoning had started showing off again. He greasily pushed up his bangs, the corner of his mouth slightly raised on one side, and loudly slapped the muscles on his body as if he were ready to jump into a pool for a swimming competition right then and there.
Cheese Milk Cap Eight Percent Sugar immediately took a step to the side, forcefully suppressing the urge to roll her eyes. He still couldn't change this habit of acting up out of nowhere; she really shouldn't have held out any hope for him!
[You all should have participated in the Treasure Map Realm, so you also know the use of points. 5000 points per person have already been distributed to you.
You have 10 minutes to make a decision on how many points you want to invest into the public point pool. If the final total reaches 50000 points, the total points in the pool will be doubled, and all players (including those who did not successfully invest points) will be eligible to split the total points in the pool equally!
If the total does not reach 50000 points, the points everyone invested will go down the drain. And I'll kindly reveal a hint: the final winner of the Master Gathering is determined based on points, so please consider carefully whether you want to invest.
This point exchange pool contains all the treasures that have ever appeared, and that sole winner will receive the first Guild Card in the entire national server. One step ahead, always ahead. That is all I have to say. You... understand, right? The discussion begins! Please make good use of your time!]
Qi Xu had long been prepared. The moment the voice from the light screen faded, she spoke up directly, "Hello everyone! I am Invincible Black Whirlwind from District 88. Regarding the rules just announced by the light screen, I would like to share my thoughts first. Do any of you have any objections?"
Qi Xu seemed to be asking, but in reality, she took control very assertively. Not only did she proactively reveal her identity, but she also preemptively threw out her pre-planned proposal before everyone else had fully finished thinking.
Along the way, she cast a sharp glance around the entire circle.
Cheese Milk Cap Eight Percent Sugar proactively replied, "So it's Boss Whirlwind. Of course we have no objections. I've heard a lot about you; I've grown tired of hearing your server-wide announcements all year."
Endless Longevity coughed slightly twice, "Boss Whirlwind, please speak."
Qi Xu didn't wait too long, nor did she wait for everyone to answer, taking the initiative to continue, "A total of 50,000 points is needed to achieve the doubling effect. There are 12 of us, which means each of us needs to invest at least 4,167 points this time. But my suggestion is for everyone to invest everything.
In this Master Gathering competition among the 12 of us, as long as we invest all our points, everyone's starting point will remain exactly the same. No matter what the final result is, each of us will be able to get 10,000 points. It's a guaranteed profit."
"You make it sound nice, but who can guarantee that everyone else will invest this amount? What if I invest 4,167, and someone else only invests 1 or nothing at all? Wouldn't my four thousand plus points just be thrown away?"
Qi Xu hadn't seen the person speaking before, but she nodded in agreement at his initiative to speak up and raise a question. Her affectionate and encouraging gaze as she looked over was like a teacher looking at a student.
Qi Xu was just about to answer when Xie Shaoning beat her to it. "To put it bluntly, it's making us gamble. If the gamble succeeds, everyone gets a share of the soup. If it fails, the individuals who hid their points will secretly laugh, and those who invested a lot will basically be eliminated. It's just 5,000 points. You guys wouldn't lack even this little bit of courage, would you?
Boss Whirlwind, I understand what you mean. I'll follow. I have no problem investing all 5,000 points. My word is my bond; I, Xie Shaoning, do not tell lies!"
Qi Xu suddenly felt that Little Xie had become more handsome. Moreover, this guy really hit the mark with his posturing this time. One could imagine that the bullet screens must be full of praise for him right now...
Xie Shaoning's smile indeed grew increasingly rampant.
Seeing him be so supportive, Qi Xu was also willing to praise him, "Brother Xie has courage."
Xie Shaoning gleefully raised his head, pressed his index and middle fingers together, lightly tapped his temple, and gestured in Qi Xu's direction. To people who didn't know him, it did look pretty cool.
Afraid that Comrade Little Xie would reveal his true greasy nature, Qi Xu directly changed the subject.
"I don't know if everyone was paying attention just now? All items that have ever appeared in the game will exist in this point exchange pool. That means it will include the Poseidon Scepter, an essential material for upgrading a vehicle to level 8.
A Poseidon Scepter costs 5,000 points. If everyone invests 0 points, you can indeed successfully exchange it. But... there's clearly a chance to double it right now, isn't there? Wouldn't it be better to double your points and exchange for two directly?
Do you all not have friends who have walked alongside you up to this point? There is only one Poseidon Treasure Map Realm in the entire national server where you can obtain the Poseidon Scepter. I have already been there. Aside from this Master Gathering, it's almost impossible for everyone to upgrade to a level 8 vehicle through other means in the short term.
If the opportunity is right in front of you, and you don't even dare to gamble for yourself and your friends to fight for a chance at the top 10 in the server, then what's the point of your friends following a boss like you? They might as well find another way out and come find me in District 88.
In the entire China server, the only two players who have upgraded to a level 8 vehicle are me and one of my people. Anyone who knows, knows the weight of that."
As soon as Qi Xu finished speaking, the circle of people understood the true purpose behind her words. Openly planting knives! A textbook open conspiracy. Along the way, how could anyone not have a single supporter by their side!
On the contrary, to be able to reach this position, to win the cross-district arena challenge, and to win the powerhouse championship, all required team cooperation, and all possessed the relevant leadership abilities. So Invincible Black Whirlwind's words hit the nail right on the head!
