Chapter 2: Carefree Hegemony
A secret meeting room in Kyoto, China.
An old man with white hair and a youthful face looked at the light screen in front of him and slowly ordered: "The plan has officially started, do what you should do."
A bald middle-aged man with a noble appearance beside him hesitated: "Do you really want to do this? Can that person be trusted?"
"I believe him." The old man felt the vitality rekindled in his body and said lightly: "In addition, prepare a virtual helmet for me, I want to see this real world in person."
"Yes."
In Black Mountain, with Li Xiaoyao's tacit consent, the child began to make a summoning array.
The token spun in the air, emitting green light, and drew a mysterious summoning array on the ground.
If someone from the Guapi Kingdom responded to the call, they would appear here.
Later, at the child's strong suggestion, Li Xiaoyao took out the memory ball from the storage ring, walked around Black Mountain, filmed the entire Black Mountain scenery, and uploaded it to the official website.
Uploaded with the video, there was also a description of the Xiaoyao Sect's background made up by Li Xiaoyao himself.
【Xiaoyao Sect, with Xiaoyao as its true meaning, was founded by the ancient saint Xiaoyaozi, and was originally the largest sect in the fairy world. Later, when the demon invaded, the disciples of Xiaoyao Sect sacrificed themselves for the sake of the people of the world and kept the demon out of the sky. Xiaoyao Sect has since declined. 】
【Warriors from the Guapi Kingdom, come and join me to revive Xiaoyao! 】
Li Xiaoyao had just finished everything when he found that someone had already left a message under the announcement.
【What kind of rubbish game, only 1000G, dare to say it is 100% realistic? 】
【It's the 23rd century, and you still have such a rustic fairy background. What's more, without 1000T, you still have the nerve to say it is a virtual online game? 】
【By the way, what is the Guapi Kingdom? 】
【But this CG is well shot, and the rendering is also of high standard. Is it a dog meat under the guise of sheep? 】
【Bye, I'd better go back to my "Fairy Outer Space" to move bricks. ]
[Haha, virtual reality online games for cultivating immortals are all over the place now, but if they are really 100% realistic, it is worth a try. ]
[The brother above has a point, but the most realistic virtual online games are only 34% realistic at present. This game is probably just a gimmick. ]
[Only fools will be fooled. Don't download it. Let's watch the joke together! ]

Li Xiaoyao dragged the mouse while watching the discussion of the melon peels. Although he didn't understand it very well, he still watched it with relish.
"These melon peels are really interesting creatures." Li Xiaoyao sighed.
Unknowingly, more than an hour passed, and more and more people came to leave messages, but no one tried it. Most of them came to watch the joke.
Li Xiaoyao was a little impatient: "Where are my Guapi warriors? Why haven't they come to see me yet!"
The little boy timidly suggested: "Maybe the promotion is not strong enough, or should we send out a few more ads?"
"You can do it yourself. Xiaoyao Sect needs Guapi warriors to revitalize it!" After that, Li Xiaoyao turned around and continued to post, leaving the advertising to the little boy.
The little boy seemed to have a plan in advance. In less than a quarter of an hour, he put several kinds of ads on the Internet.
"Damn! Died again!"
Liu Jiangyin lay on the bed in the dormitory, pulling off the virtual helmet on his head, his face full of indignation.
"No, I don't believe I can't pass this level! Hey, what is this?"
Just as Liu Jiangyin put on the helmet and prepared to re-enter the game, a virtual advertisement appeared in front of him.
[Recently, I've been playing a game called Xiaoyao Hegemony. People in the rivers and lakes have no choice. As a warrior, how can I not protect my brothers? If you dare to bully my brothers, I will let you taste the taste of the Dragon Slaying Sword! 】
"Why are there ads on the virtual helmet? I'm really drunk. What a rubbish game. Turn it off!"
Liu Jiangyin issued a command to turn off the ads, and a burst of electronic sound came from his headphones:
[Downloading the game "Xiaoyao Baye", size 1000G, estimated to take 2 minutes. 】
"Wrong, wrong!" Liu Jiangyin saw that the game had started downloading, and quickly issued a command to cancel the download.
[Congratulations on opening a Xunlei member, entering the VIP download channel, beep The game has been downloaded. 】
"What's going on? Delete it quickly, don't waste my time."
[I have opened "Xiaoyao Baye" for you, I wish you a happy game. 】
"Damn it!" Liu Jiangyin couldn't help but scream, "Routine, all routine! What kind of rogue game is this, and you can force people to play it!"
At the same time, another 49 people received the "mandatory" advertisements specially prepared by the child.
[Hello everyone, I am Gu Tianle, I am Zha Zha Hui, Xiaoyao Baye, I am introducing the latest version that you have never experienced, you only need to experience it for three minutes, then you will love this game like me. ]
[Your time is very valuable, open the computer just for Xiaoyao Baye. I am Zhang Liangying, I am waiting for you in Xiaoyao Baye. ]
With screams, everyone was successfully tricked into entering Xiaoyao Baye.
At this time, more and more people flocked to the forum of the official website, all wanting to see the jokes of the game planners.
On the official website, the number of remaining places for the internal test has not changed for several hours, and it has always been 50 full.
Suddenly, the number changed from 50 to 49, indicating that one person had downloaded the game and created a character at this time.
The forum was suddenly shocked.
[There are really fools playing this game. They are so stupid. 】
[Who knows, maybe the planner lost his nerve and hired a shill. 】
[Hahaha, I knew it, it must be a trap! 】
At this moment, the number of places for the closed beta test dropped rapidly, from 49 to 0 within 10 seconds at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After a brief period of calm, the forum exploded!
[No way, who grabbed the spot for the closed beta? Do they have an inside story? 】
[Is this game really 100% realistic? 】
[I have told you before that this game is not simple, but you still don’t believe it! 】
[Don’t fart upstairs, you already knew why you haven’t entered the game yet? 】
For a time, insider theory and 100% fidelity became the focus of discussion. Everyone kept browsing the official website and did not want to leave for a moment. They wanted to get first-hand information from the beta players as soon as possible and wanted to know. Is this 100% simulation true or false?
They had long forgotten that they came here to see a joke in the first place.
Li Xiaoyao was still scrolling through posts, but he couldn't do it anymore. Before he could finish reading the previous posts, there were already more than ten floors behind them, making him very busy.
The boy stepped forward as if he was taking credit: "Great leader, your disciple is ready and is about to enter the sect."
"Are you here?" Li Xiaoyao stood up reluctantly. He adjusted his appearance to leave a dignified and good impression on the new disciples.
The little boy said in a voice: "Before the melons come, we must first discuss the novice mission."
"What is that?" Li Xiaoyao was confused.
After some explanation from Xiao Tong, Li Xiaoyao finally understood that the so-called mission was actually the order from the leader.
But the difference from orders is that the tasks issued by Li Xiaoyao must be rewarded after they are completed.
Not only that, although these disciples from the Guapi Kingdom do not need monthly benefits or a fixed cave, they do need a steady stream of tasks.
It is best for these tasks to be specific to a certain thing, such as killing 10 magic ants, building a house, or digging a basket of rocks, etc.
The rind is indeed a melon rind, and the conditions asked for are also so weird.
Li Xiaoyao felt a little worried: "It's easy to talk about missions, but where can I find this reward? I can't reward them with spiritual stones. I don't even have enough for myself."
Spirit stones are impossible. Li Xiaoyao is only in the Qi refining stage now, which is the peak period for using spirit stones. It is impossible for him to give such precious things to his disciples. But he didn't have any magic weapons or exercises, only a copy of the exercises "Tongtian Shen Gong" left behind by his master.
Well, it's also called "A Detailed Introduction to the Cultivator". One spiritual stone outside can wholesale a hundred copies.
The little boy said in a milky voice: "The little boy does have an idea."
According to Xiaotong's idea, Li Xiaoyao needs to introduce a universal currency called "Sect Contribution Points". Whenever a disciple completes a task, Li Xiaoyao can reward him with a small amount of contribution points. Then the disciples are divided into nine levels in the Xiaoyao Sect. Whenever a disciple's contribution reaches a certain value, he can be promoted to a higher level disciple.
Li Xiaoyao is a little confused. Is this sect's contribution really useful? They won't rebel because they are dissatisfied with the rewards, right?
He asked: "Little boy, this sect's contribution cannot buy anything, how can it be used as currency?"
Xiaotong explained: "Don't worry, as long as you implement a title system in the sect, the sect's contribution value will suddenly become precious. When the contribution value has its own value, those melons will naturally be able to have fun. of."
After some explanation by the kid, Li Xiaoyao finally understood what this title system was.
The disciples who have just started are servant disciples and have no titles on their heads.
The ninth-level disciples have white titles on their heads.
By analogy, the colors of the title are white, black, green, blue, red, purple, orange, gold, and platinum. And the higher the disciple's rank, the greater the title.
A first-class disciple has a huge platinum title on his head!
The little boy said in a voice: "The people in the Guapi Kingdom are very crazy in their pursuit of this title."
Li Xiaoyao really couldn't understand why these melons like this kind of cosmetic thing. This thing can be condensed by a cultivator using spiritual power, and it has no practical value at all.
After that, Li Xiaoyao discussed the task rewards with Xiaotong again, and set rewards for several tasks that needed to be completed urgently.
In this way, there are rewards, and those melon skins should have enough motivation to work.
Li Xiaoyao was standing on the top of the mountain with fluttering white clothes and a flying sword on his back, waiting for the arrival of his first batch of disciples at any time.
After a while, no one was summoned, so Li Xiaoyao became a little anxious: "Where are the warriors from my Guapi Kingdom?"
"They are pinching their faces. Guapi always likes to waste time on insignificant things, such as appearance, clothes, titles, etc." Xiaotong Naisheng explained.
Li Xiaoyao shook his head helplessly. Although there are many monks in the spiritual world who pay attention to appearance and like to change their appearance when nothing happens, most of them are women. But I didn’t expect that this trend would become a national trend in the Guapi Kingdom.
As for where the spiritual power came from, there is no need to think about it. The child must have lent it to them.
My spiritual stones are wasted in such a useless place.
Li Xiaoyao's heart was bleeding.
After a while, the teleportation array on the ground glowed green, and a burly male Guapi teleported over.
Liu Jiangyin entered the game with a lot of anger. Who would be willing to play a game that forces you to play?
"It's 100% realistic, what a lie, and they give you a Dragon Slaying Sword when you leave the house, what a rubbish." Liu Jiangyin muttered, but still pinched a face that he thought was very handsome in front of the mirror, and then randomly gave himself a nickname and entered the game.
A flash of green light passed by, and Liu Jiangyin felt like he had traveled through time.
Shocking!
Incomparable shock!
Everything around him was the same as it was real!
He was obviously on the bed in the dormitory, but now he felt gloomy and terrifying, the black road surface, the withered branches, and the shining magic crows. He now felt like he was really in hell!
"Damn, it's so good, I want to blow up this game!"
In Li Xiaoyao's eyes, a mortal wearing only a vest and shorts walked out of the summoning circle, but then he was like a fool, standing there in a daze, his eyes full of fanaticism. There were a few big white characters on his head [Big roots are no more than three meters], and they would shake with his head.
It's really a fool!
Just when Li Xiaoyao was about to show off his majesty as the head of the sect, dozens of fools suddenly poured into the summoning array, a black mass!
"This, I am not traveling through time, am I?"
"It's really 100% mimicry! My gosh, the touch and taste are so real!"
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, where is the pain system adjusted?"
"This is definitely using the latest neural sympathetic technology, I didn't expect it to be so mature."
"This material, this modeling, this game is too awesome, I want to blow it up!"
In Li Xiaoyao's eyes, the fools in front of him were all crazy. Some of them touched here and there, some directly picked up a handful of soil and put it in their mouths, and some jumped directly from the mountain, and then resurrected in the summoning array, with excitement on their faces.
Yes, Li Xiaoyao was ignored.
Hey, hey, I am the head of the sect, aren't you here to become my disciple? Don’t I have any face?
Li Xiaoyao decided to make some changes.
