Chapter 160: 160 Double Happiness at the Door

Zhang Ye: "..."

Not surprised?

Not envious?

Not jealous?

This isn’t scientific.

Ji You waved her hand dismissively, "Got it, you can go now."

Zhang Ye: "..."

As Ji You took a step and brushed past Zhang Ye, she suddenly turned her head and grinned at him, "You’re losing sleep and running laps over such a trivial matter?"

Zhang Ye: "..."

Ji You shook her head in lament, "Really, you’ve seen nothing of the world."

Zhang Ye: "..."

Being blocked by Ji You number 4444 like this, Zhang Ye’s excitement instantly diminished.

No more running!

Better hurry back to sleep; there’s training to do tomorrow.

So—Zhang Ye decided to head back, and while running to the dormitory, he looked back and saw Ji You number 4444 still running laps around the dormitory area: What’s up with her?

I myself earned 8800 points and am overjoyed; did she win the lottery or what?

Is that possible?

Zhang Ye felt a bit puzzled.

But he wasn’t in the mood to think about others; he was too elated, thinking about the points in his account, he felt like jumping three feet in the air.

Heaven and Hell, just separated by one wall; if before, Zhang Ye could not grasp this saying, but now, he fully understood and related to it. He himself was a true portrayal of instant Hell to instant Heaven.

Zhang Ye’s Star Network account had a rather quaint name, ’Xianting Huailuo’. He had participated in this session’s Mecha competition organized by Alliance University. Zhang Ye’s Physical Strength and spiritual power were both A-rated, and, amidst the vast territories of the Alliance, his strength wasn’t top-notch but was the backbone of the Alliance. Zhang Ye’s dream was to become a Mechanical Warrior, protecting his home and country. Therefore, he took every training in school very seriously.

Such a contest was beneficial to enhance one’s own strength; obviously, Zhang Ye would participate.

During the few days of the competition, Zhang Ye was quite lucky, the wins and losses hovered around 50-50, and with several victories, he smoothly collected commissions, amassed 500 points, and bought a long-coveted Mecha, Chasing Sun. As soon as he acquired the Mecha, he rushed to participate in a match.

At that time—

The reason he accepted that self-destructing dunce’s request was not only because he was irritated by their 1 point offer but also because he was considering picking an opponent with lower capabilities to try out his new Mecha and refine his skills.

Who knew—

It would be such a disaster.

Not only did he lose the match, his beloved Mecha ’Chasing Sun’ not even warmed up yet, was destroyed.

Exploded.

points!

Zhang Ye was so heartbroken he could hardly breathe.

After that, he couldn’t even eat or drink; he just thought about how to earn points to repair his Chasing Sun.

Who knew—

On a whim, betting on a dunce, he actually won so many points.

Zhang Ye’s brain crashed on the spot! 8800 points! If he fought match by match, when would he ever accumulate so many points? It would definitely take a month to achieve that much.

According to the official rules designed by Alliance University, for a match, the challenger must set the points for the challenge when sending a request to the opponent, if lost, the points go to the opponent. If won, the points aren’t deducted, and one can also draw a commission from the betting pool.

In short—

This kind of competition is very friendly to the victors and extremely cruel to the losers.

But ——

To extract a large amount of points, there must be a lot of spectators and a large betting pool.

If you are neither a master nor somewhat famous, and you are just an ordinary contestant, your match could at most gather a few hundred to a thousand spectators, with some worse scenarios only having a few dozen people watching.

So what?

Typically, ordinary contestants can only extract a few points from the betting pool. Cases like Ji You, who attracted 1 million spectators in one match, are truly exceptional.

The main reason is that her opponents aggressively promoted her, and the hot topic that fermented for a whole day and night greatly increased her fame; everyone wanted to see the ridiculous self-destruction, everyone wanted to watch the joke...

It’s about timing, and momentum.

What about Zhang Ye? He fought 10 matches, lost 5, and won 5, but still didn’t have enough points to buy a Mecha. Zhang Ye had no choice but to borrow from classmates and buy with credit points from others, scraping here and there, and he finally managed to gather just over 600 points, enough to buy a ’Chasing Sun’. However, his personal win rate dropped to 50%.

If he wants to advance from the preliminaries, he still needs to find a way to increase his win rate.

But now ——

With 8800 points of his own, not only can he repair his Mecha, but he can also upgrade it to the top configuration. For the subsequent matches, Zhang Ye believes he can surely advance smoothly.

Zhang Ye returned to his dormitory, still too excited to sleep.

On this side ——

Ji You ran 10 laps, unable to run anymore. Even if her brain was still excited, her poor physical condition simply wouldn’t allow her to keep running. Dragging her tired steps, Ji You returned to her dorm.

After washing up and planning to lie back in bed intending to sleep honestly, Ji You suddenly remembered something — she remembered she had listed the Soul Artifact Earrings for sale on the online store.

Unsure if they had sold,

The thought made Ji You restless, and she got up again and logged into Star Network.

As soon as she entered, she was bombarded with a massive wave of system notifications.

Ji You quickly turned off the notifications.

Checking them:

Wow ——

All the Soul Artifact Earrings were sold out, even the ordinary artistic earrings were all gone.

This brought in 6,505,000 credit points!

She struck it rich!

She really hit jackpot!

Tonight was a double celebration for her!

Absolutely incredible ——

This is the peak of life.

Ji You was so excited that she almost couldn’t resist running downstairs to take another lap, but she forcefully restrained herself. Clutching her chest and holding down her legs, she scolded herself: "Look at how petty you are, getting worked up over just 6.5 million?"

"Don’t do anything this embarrassing unless it’s over 6.5 billion."

It must be said, Ji You may not have any skills, but she dares to dream.

And now, having just made 6.5 million, she’s already dreaming of 6.5 billion.

Ji You grinned stupidly for a moment, first, she paid off her student loans in full at once. With the debt cleared, she felt a load lifted off her shoulders, and even breathing felt much easier.

As for how to use the money, Ji You had a clear head, not at all confused; she wanted to buy a Soul Device for herself, ideally getting a low-level Soul Device, a Mid-level Soul Device, and a High-level Soul Device each, so she could have a comparison for her experiments.

Thus ——

Ji You searched for the prices of Soul Devices on the Star Network; low-level ones were about 1 million-1.5 million, mid-level started at 5 million, and she didn’t dare look at the many zeros following the price of the high-level ones.

Ji You: "..."

Ji You’s face darkened, realizing her 6.5 million really wasn’t much in comparison.
