So...the supposed scenes were now move to the next chapter. Ehem! It's about TangQiu and the welcome party for the members of the team.

Chapter Text

[System Announcement: Tenth Server player Autumn Moonlight has completed the Heavenly Domain Challenge and has entered the Heavenly Domain.]

“Are all those bastards from the tenth server crazy?” one of the players who had notice the system announcement raised the discussion in one of the channels of Heavenly Domain. In normal cases, which is the standard for the past nine years, players from the newly opened server should have yet to complete their Heavenly Domain Challenge by now.

Why are these bunch of retards prematurely hastening their challenge and miraculously succeeding at that? While they had painstakingly given their blood and sweat and still couldn’t pass the challenge even at max level!

Soon, this feeling of unjust and envy spread in all of the ten channels of the Heavenly Domain world chat. Every player with crappy skills and even those with average aptitude voiced out their resentments.

“Not tenth server, specifically, Guild Happy,” a veteran who had an alt in the tenth server pointed out. These clueless people had no idea, howbeit he does. This Autumn Moonlight was no simple figure in the new server. Nothing could be talk about Lord Grim since many believed that he was the recently retired God. The other one shouldn’t be that simple either, for him to pass the Heavenly Challenge. What’s more astonishing was they all came from the same guild, a guild that was newly established yet could contend with the big guilds.

Another one from the tenth server voiced out his agreement, “Ah, correct. Lord Grim and that One Inch Ash.”

“Autumn Moonlight? Isn’t that someone trending in the website forum?” a gossipy player suddenly said.

“I saw that post! There’s a screenshot of him saying that he is Ye Qiu and Lord Grim said that he believes in him.”

“Lord Grim is Ye Qiu, no?”

“No one confirmed it. Even the pros said it so vaguely.”

“Who is the genuine God Ye, really? I heard that this Autumn Moonlight is the guild leader of Happy and my friends from the tenth server said that he did have some skills. Think about it, there’s a Qiu on his ID!”

“Even Lord Grim agreed with him!” one player supported.

“What if they’re doing it just to misdirect us?” a wise one differed.

“Lol, they didn’t say that for us. Some from the tenth server just voluntarily SSed. I think it was related to the trash talks between the guilds during a BOSS hunt.”
