《World of Experts 》Chapter 184: Selection Contest (1)
Advertisement
Another day passed, and Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao had enough of a break.
Especially Feng Tianhao, if he didn’t return to the game, then Shi Hao might pester him to find that waitress to take a good look.
When they entered the game, it just happened to be morning in the game.
The sun shone on the land of Twin Dragons Village, waking up sleeping people. Soon, everyone discovered that their two Village Chiefs had ‘returned’.
“Reporting to the Village Chiefs, during this period of time, Twin Dragons Village has developed extremely rapidly…” Wang Fu reported the current situation.
In short, the economic and military strength of Twin Dragons Village had greatly increased.
Among them, the progress in the cultural aspect was even more remarkable. The songs sung and stories told in the nearby villages, all came from Zhang Jue.
Naturally, the increase in characters’ level was also very important. In Twin Dragons Village, all combatants had reached level 20.
“Very good!” Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao smiled.
After Wang Fu left, Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao discussed about the Players Meet.
“Now, among the players, if there is no accident, our town will be stable in the number one position as long as we win this competition.” Feng Tianhao said.
“Mmm…, unfortunately, we are still lacking a strategist… I wonder where we can find one…” said Shi Hao.
Feng Tianhao thought for a while and suddenly recalled something: “Oh, that’s right! I remember seeing the recruitment order announced by that Heroic Overlord Under Heaven on the internet. It seems that he wanted to recruit strategist and fighter profession players. The location is Heavenly Dragon Village… How about we go there and take a look?”
Shi Hao pondered and said: “Forget it, the strength of a person recruited like that is not certain, moreover, their background will be even more unreliable. It’s better to have nothing than substandard choice…”

Feng Tianhao nodded in agreement. He had suggested it because he wanted to see the excitement.
Feng Tianhao said again: “In that case, how about we hold a strategist selection contest? Let’s see who among the strategists in our Twin Dragons Village is the strongest…”
This time, Shi Hao didn’t object: “Okay, but there are no suitable people in our Twin Dragons Village, and Little Xiao absolutely can’t go. Therefore, we can only go to Heavenly Kong Village of Soaring Through the Highest Heaven…”
“Hmm…”
Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao didn’t waste time. They immediately sent a letter to Heavenly Kong Village.
In the letter, Shi Hao personally wrote: “Quickly hold a strategist selection contest to provide talents for the Players Meet… We two will be there on the last day of the selection contest…”
At the end of the letter, Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao jointly wrote their names.
‘Soaring Through the Highest Heaven’, who was a die-hard fan of the Twin Dragons Village, attached great importance to this matter.
“Men! Quickly build an arena…, all people with the strategist profession are to lay down their works and return to the game…” Soaring Through the Highest Heaven ordered, and the work started in full swing.
Speaking of it, Soaring Through the Highest Heaven was also an out-and-out rich second generation, named He Xiang.
He was also a graduate of a prestigious university. This year, he was 25 years old and he had opened a high-end restaurant. Naturally, the capital needed to open this restaurant was provided by his family.
His restaurant was famous. It was opened beside C University of H Province.
Yes, it was the restaurant where Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao had visited a few days ago, named ‘River of Heaven’.
The specialty of ‘River of Heaven’ was a top-quality wine, brought to the human world, making everyone taste a kind of divine flavor.
Not long after, before the letter written by Twin Dragons had warmed up in He Xiang’s hands, his subordinates brought the news that the preparation for the selection contest was over.

“Let’s go!” He Xiang jumped off his chair and went to the site of the selection contest.
Although the arena was a bit small and also coarse, it was simple and usable, which was enough.
“Cough! Cough!” He Xiang put on his favorite brown bear costume and roared: “Everyone, the importance of this selection is self-evident. I hope everyone will do their best and don’t disappoint me, moreover, don’t disappoint the ‘twin dragons’ that will come on the last day…”
Nonsense! Who didn’t know the importance of this contest? Everyone here was basically an employee of ‘River of Heaven’, and they greatly admired Twin Dragons Village. They were already itching to fight, and basically didn’t listen to this damned manager’s nagging, instead, they were sizing up their potential opponents.
Finally, He Xiang finished his nagging: “I’ll only say this much. Everyone should display names so that I can take notes. Now, I announce the official start of the selection contest!”
This selection contest would be held according to the format of the Players Meet. There were three rounds.
First round, audition, every person should display their basic strength.
Second round, melee, leaving two people as the final contestants.
Third round, decisive battle, the final two candidates fight to determine the winner.
At this moment, the first round of audition was ongoing. He Xiang was sitting on the head seat beside the arena, watching the talents and skills of every strategist in his village with full interest.
A man hastily rushed onto the stage: “Lord Village Chief, look at my skill…” After speaking, he waved his feather fan, throwing out an ‘Energy Arrow’.
This ‘Energy Arrow’ was just a D grade basic skill. It was like a small bomb, and its power was not that big, basically counted as a cheap trick.
He Xiang shook his head and waved his hand: “Next…” He then crossed the name of this person from the namelist he had.
Shortly afterward, the next candidate stepped forward. He was also a man. He didn’t say much. Perhaps, he thought that his strength was enough to explain everything.
Suddenly, this man held a feather fan with his right hand, stamped his feet on the ground and stood on horse stance, “Ha!” A layer of light blue defense shield appeared around his body.
This was ‘Energy Shield’, was also a D grade skill. It increased the defense, but it was an out-and-out good-for-nothing skill. The defense of strategists was very low. Even after the increment, the defense would still be broken at one hit.
He Xiang shook his head again and waved his hand: “Next…” Afterward, he crossed the name of this person.
Like this, for half a day, He Xiang repeated the same process, saying ‘next’ while shaking his head.
He Xiang thought: “Fortunately, the people of Twin Dragons Village only come on the last day. If they had seen these losers, then the reputation of my Heavenly Kong Village would have been smashed to bits…”
Gradually, the sky was getting darker, and He Xiang looked at the namelist full of crosses and basically couldn’t raise his head.
He counted, “one, two, three, four, five…” Just five strategists were barely presentable. These people either had a C grade skill or had a good operating technique. And speaking about it, all of them were men.
Thinking about it, although the proportion of girls among strategists was the highest, the female players had become strategists for crafting, not for fighting. Only a very few female players dared to join battles.
“Enough! Is there anyone left…” He Xiang was a little tired and wanted to finish this round.
However, a female strategist named ‘Fluttering Bamboo’ jumped onto the arena with agile movements…

NEVER SPLIT THE PARTY: The Adventures of The Creeping Bam (BOOK ONE: The Job)
TAO is a broken world held together with nothing but magic and the will of the gods who protect it and its people. Then thousand years ago THE SUNDERING struck and Tao was almost torn apart by a terrible magical cataclysm which resulted in the planet almost being halted in its journey through the cosmos. It took all the power the gods of Tao could muster to restore its orbit and set it turning again, but in their efforts it was forever changed – its axis was drastically altered, and it now spins in such a way that one face of the world is forever turned from the sun it orbits, leaving half the planet in perpetual darkness. The various humanoid races that survived and now thrive within the habitable parts of THE DAY LANDS have come to live in perpetual fear of what lives beyond THE BORDERLANDS that separate them from whatever dwells within THE NIGHT LANDS, but for ten millennia it has kept its secrets. The land of RUNDAO languishes under the rule of their warlike Northern neighbours, the TEKTEHRAN EMPIRE, while a small, ragtag band of motley adventurers ply their mercenary trade fighting monsters and protecting the common man from the various dangers that haunt the night and prowl the hinterlands on the edges of civilization. THE CREEPING BAM have amassed a modest reputation in their years together, but they’re still just a small-time party of sellswords, thieves, outcasts and mages. They’re also exactly the kind of underdogs the people of Tao doesn’t yet realise are needed to save the world from the encroaching darkness they doesn’t even know is coming … This is a love letter and homage to the high-fantasy worlds of the tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder and Warhammer and the sword & sorcery cinema and literature I fell in love with as a kid growing up in the 80s, from Robert E. Howard’s Conan the Barbarian (and the awesome Schwarzenegger movie, STILL my favourite fantasy film EVER), The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit and Ron Howard and George Lucas’ Willow, to the more grown-up and edgy worlds of grimdark masters George RR Martin and (my all-time favourite) Joe Abercrombie, as well as a BIG DOLLOP of Terry Pratchett’s immortal Discworld series. IMPORTANT: This story contains material which some readers may consider to be mature, such as battle violence, some strong language and occasional mild sexual scenes. If this is not your kind of thing, this story is not for you. I am also serializing this story on Tumblr, Wattpad, Quotev and Sweek.
