Free Web NovelEven if there were one or two truly naive and simple-minded people among the proud talents present, the vast majority still had brains.
By now, if they still couldn't see the money-grabbing nature of this team-on-team event, they were truly foolish.
But what if they knew?
They couldn't bear to give up halfway!
And even though this event was a trap, you had to admit, you couldn't help but get drawn into it.
Take the Skill Duplicator, for example; how many people would refuse a trial opportunity?
And once they tried it, like ordinary people first exposed to gambling, whether they won or lost, how many could resist the urge to continue gambling?
Especially this group of young talents, who prided themselves on their abilities; if they succeeded, they would want more, and if they failed, their pride wouldn't allow it, so nine out of ten would try again.
It could be said that the Sealed God Stage's creation of this event was a blatant open scheme.
“Wu Cai of the Goddess Team should be the real Wu Cai; look at the skill she chose for her pet, Poison Rain, a Poison skill!”
“Poison, it’s that Poisonous Water Mandarin Duck!”
“Then who exactly is that Wu Cai from the Auntie Team?”
After Wu Cai's identity was confirmed, the topic of 'who exactly is Wu Cai?' became the focus of everyone's discussion again.
Until—
“Look! The Poisonous Water Mandarin Duck failed!”
Outside the Skill Duplicator, Wu Cai’s expression was somewhat grim.
Because of that impostor, Wu Cai firmly believed her Poisonous Water Mandarin Duck would also succeed on the first try.
The result...
She slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.
Looking at Ye Linyu, who stood beside her with a calm smile, she asked, “What exactly is the success rate of your Skill Duplicator?”
Ye Linyu was not flustered by her cold questioning and still smiled openly, “Miss Wu, your question already involves commercial secrets.”
Wu Cai narrowed her eyes, her expression somber.
“However, I can break my principles and secretly tell you a little,” he said, deliberately lowering his voice, “The current success rate of our Skill Duplicator is definitely higher than that of ordinary Skill Stones.”
The three Staff Members in the room exchanged glances: “...”
Should they expose Ye Linyu’s lie?
Well, it wasn't really a lie.
Because 'currently,' the success rate of the Skill Duplicator was indeed higher than that of ordinary Skill Stones!
That girl just now, by herself, had managed to raise the success rate to 11.9%, which indeed surpassed the alliance record for Skill Stone success rates.
But...
Was that truly normal?
Wu Cai had no idea about the intricacies involved; upon hearing Ye Linyu's words, she no longer hesitated, “I’ll purchase another usage opportunity; ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) let the Poisonous Water Mandarin Duck continue to learn Poison Rain.”
“Alright.”
Ye Linyu quickly winked at the Staff Member.
The Staff Member understood and reactivated the instrument.
However, the second attempt also failed!
Wu Cai, not believing in bad luck, bought the remaining two opportunities but switched to a different skill.
“Click!”
“Skill Water Moon learning failed!”
“Click!”
“Skill Water Moon learning failed!”
Following Wu Cai's 100% success rate, Wu Cai bravely achieved a 100% failure rate.
Who would dare say this wasn't fate?
Wu Cai’s face was no longer pale green but liver-colored.
A fierce aura emanated from her, as if she was about to transform into a monstrous boar.
She glared angrily at Ye Linyu, “Is this what you call a higher success rate than Skill Stones?”
“Miss Wu, everything I said is absolutely true. Your Poisonous Water Mandarin Duck hasn’t succeeded, could it be because you stepped out with your left foot first today?”
Poor luck, lack of strength, blaming the success rate!
This Miss Wu from the Wu family is truly ridiculous.
She has a temper?
He's got resentment!
Miss Ming finally managed to raise the Skill Duplicator’s success rate, getting some good publicity, and then this Miss Wu comes along.
All that effort was wasted.
What Wu family's once-in-a-century genius!
Nonsense!
Four attempts, four failures. How dare the Wu family let such a talentless person out to make a fool of themselves?
His resentment is even greater now, okay!
Wu Cai: “...”
“Xiao You, why are you standing there stupidly? Go take Miss Wu back to her private booth; the next customer will be here soon!”
Wu Cai: “...”
She really wanted to curse, but this was the Sealed God Stage, the Chu family's territory, she couldn't act recklessly!
But she remembered Ye Linyu.
And that impostor Wu Cai, if it weren't for her, she wouldn't have been so embarrassed!
Mingxi didn't know she was 'remembered' again; she was currently sweating profusely.
She had just returned to the booth with Bai Ling, and the projection had just appeared in the virtual booth.
Before her backside even touched the sofa, she felt a disturbance in her Pet Space.
At this moment, Golden Yuanbao, Silver, Azure, and Black were all by her side.
So the only thing that could cause a disturbance in the Pet Space besides the Time Realm was Emerald Green!
“Emerald Green, is it about to break out of its cocoon?”
Mingxi felt the cocoon formed by Emerald Green shaking violently, as if it wanted to shake itself out of the Pet Space.
She didn't hesitate; she formed a hand seal and summoned the gray-green cocoon to her side.
Why did Emerald Green, after so much careful selection, choose this moment to show signs of change?
Could it be because Golden Yuanbao, Silver, Azure, and Black all learned a skill just now? Was Emerald Green jealous? freewebnoveℓ.com
Mingxi shook her head.
Emerald Green didn't seem like a pet that would get jealous.
However, its current change might indeed be related to the Skill Duplicator.
She guessed it didn't want to miss a similar opportunity again due to prolonged dormancy.
Being old and having complex experiences, it was inevitable to overthink.
“You Yan?”
The four Golden Yuanbao all looked at the cocoon swaying left and right on the ground like a drunken old man.
What was wrong with Emerald Green?
And besides Mingxi, Bai Ling, the only one who could see the gray-green cocoon, had a look of surprise.
“Miss Ming, is this also your pet?”
Mingxi softly hummed in affirmation, her eyes fixed on Emerald Green.
The gray-green cocoon swayed for quite a while.
The gray threads and green vines that were originally tightly woven at the top suddenly broke apart, and a thread and a vine floated away around the cocoon.
The gray threads formed one strand, and the green vines formed another, rotating separately to the left and right. They rotated more and more, circling around, forming two spiral-shaped thread-vine whirlwinds.
The spiral formed by the gray threads was dense and dark, giving a feeling of being neither mist nor water.
Mingxi's gaze couldn't help but linger on the gray thread spiral for a while.
Why did she feel this gray thread spiral looked a bit like a river?
A river filled with chilling winds, bleak desolation, and loneliness?
In a trance, she seemed to hear strange sounds?
What the hell? freewёbnoνel.com
An illusion?
She then looked at the green vine spiral on the right.
Completely different from the gray thread spiral, this green vine was full of vibrant energy, like a small, thriving tree.
Facing the sun, growing vigorously.
But the vital energies of these two spirals were interconnected, complementing each other!
They were clearly contradictory, yet exceptionally harmonious!
“What exactly is Emerald Green evolving into? This situation... it’s becoming more and more extraordinary!” Mingxi muttered to herself.
