《The Adventure of Holy Beast Bai Xiaoli》C16. Bai’s Dreadful Persistence
Advertisement
Cang Yan doesn’t know yet someone is waiting for him in virtual world for killing him.
At this moment, Cang Yan is distracted due to his soul beast. Nor is his team’s affairs smooth.
“There are totally only four team members in our team till now. Except for Joyce and me, another two members are Joyce’s girlfriend Ainy, and Rovell.”
“Yet the minimum participants for the competition are not less than 5. In this case, we will have no alternative member, and all team members are regular ones. If someone get injured while competing, we will have no alternates to replace his/her role, which is a very big trouble. Worse still, we even cannot meet the requirements on the minimum participants for the competition. How helpless it is!”
“Black God Team recruited a freshman in Practical Combat Department this day. It’s said that the team was supposed to recruit Bai Xiaoli who had the strongest practical combat ability, yet Black God Team didn’t find Bai, so Ma Nan was invited at last. Black God Team promised to take Ma Nan as an alternate, yet Ma Nan was not satisfied with that, and didn’t agree immediately, saying he needed further consideration. As for Kain who is the third person with full practical score, he has not yet come to school for registration.”
With very good shape and pretty face, Ainy can also be regarded as Venus in grade two of their department.
Ainy is not merely a girl with pretty face, she also is a rare awoken therapist of Water Department. The team equipped with a therapist is undoubtedly very luxurious since therapist is rare, what’s more, the therapist with eligibility to participate is even rare. Thus Ainy is very popular in everywhere, and the teams which wants to draw Ainy away is in an endless stream.

While drinking juice, Ainy says, “What a haughty freshman, Ma Nan! He even turns his nose up at Black God Team. Black God Team is the top team in our Tianjing College. If there is only one team having the possibility to participate in a competition on behalf of Tianjing College, it must be Black God Team.”
“Cough …… ” Joyce coughs, “Our team is also very hopeful.”
Hearing that, Ainy immediately realizes that she has said something wrong, and becomes embarrassed. Ainy glances at Cang Yan’s face, and explains, “I didn’t mean that. Our team is also very possible to... ”
What a hypocritical word Ainy speaks! Her explanation is even worse than no explanation.
Ainy hesitates and suggests tentatively, “How about letting me recruit freshmen on behalf our team?”
“No, you don’t have to.” Cang Yan refuses directly.
Ainy is confident in her appeal since she has the highest qualification of four stars in her whole team, not to mention her beauty and ability.
A team will recruit those with good qualification as its members once this team wants to grow up. With team members of good qualification, there will be a lot of room to growth for a team, and this team will become stronger during competition. On the contrary, if the average qualification of the team members are too low, there will be no way for the further development of a team, and even if the qualification of the team members can be improved, there will be little room for growth.
However, in Grey Wolf Team, among the four team members, team leader has the qualification of one star, Rovell the qualification of two stars, Joyce the qualification of three stars, and Ainy the qualification of four stars, who is the only one with four stars in the team.

“In other teams, students with qualification lower than three stars will not be enrolled. Yet, in my team, only Joyce and I have the qualification of over three stars, what’s more, I as a therapist should be protected by other team members. Can such a team really participate in the competition? Its purpose is to make funny but not really participate the competition, isn’t it?” Ainy is also helpless.
“I will go back first.” Cang Yan gets up and leaves for his dormitory.
Seeing Cang Yan leaving, Rovell glances at the lovers beside him, and scratches his head, “Then... I’ll also go back now.”
Seeing Cang Yan far away, Ainy pauses, and askes Joyce, “Did Cang get angry?”
While Joyce does not take it to his heart, and comforts, “He is a generous man, and will not mind it.”
Ainy pouts, “But, I find he is really angry.”
Joyce stares at the back of Cang Yang, saying, “He may be in a bad mood.”
Joyce thinks Cang Yan’s bad mood is not caused by Ainy’s words since he was a little strange after he came back from virtual world yesterday.
But Ainy persistently thinks Cang Yang gets angry due to her words.
As soon as Cang Yan gets back to his dormitory, he enters into OR system cabin. Cang is going to have some fighting in the virtual world so as to get himself calmed. Cang Yan begins to feel distracted since he met [I want meat I want meat I want meat] yesterday.
As soon as Cang’s soul enters the virtual world, Cang receives a challenge letter.
Cang Yan glances at the letter, and directly closes it, without opening.
There are many challengers coming to Cang in the virtual world every day: some of them boast themselves of being extraordinary, some want to revenge themselves on Cang Yan, some intend to take Cang as a stepping-stone for high rank, and some prepare to improve fame by having a fighting with Cang. All in all, there are all sorts of challengers with various purposes.
If it were in early period, he would accept the challenge once he received a letter. After accepting so many challenges in such a long time, Cang knows those challenges are actually all routines. Among those challengers, some are strong, but most of them are weak, who are not willing to accept the fact that they have failed, and send challenge letters to Cang every day after they lost one fighting. Yet Cang Yan has no time to practice with them, so seldom will he accept challenges and even if Cang accepts, he will only accept those worthy challenges. Cang Yan just clicks the close mark “×”, and is going to click the button of “Random Matching”, then Cang stops, “Will it be possible that I will continue to be randomly matched with that guy again?”
It is during this pause, another challenge letter pops up.
Cang Yan twists his eyebrows, and clicks the close mark “×” again.
After two seconds, expectedly another challenge letter pops up.
Hey, It’s A Pitfall.

The Merchant Prince Book 1: Returning Home
Enter a world of deceit and assassins. Augustus DeCastellian is a member of a wealthy merchant family, with ports all over the known world. He is sent on a voyage to new lands to open trade routes, but when he returns he will need to fight, using his tools of manipulation and cunning, for what he is owed.Author's note: This story is somewhat slow-paced, especially in comparison to the norm on Royal Road. The first three chapters act almost as a prologue, to give you a feel for what the rest of the story will be like. So, I suggest new readers try to get to the end of chapter 3 before deciding if this story is for them.A few of my reviews have said that this story is abnormal for Royal Road. I agree with that sentiment, at least based on what I've read on the site. It was just an idea that was in my head, that I began trying to write once my hobbies were cancelled due to the virus. I found Royal Road after I started writing it. Honestly, it's probably not even tailored for the web-novel format. But it's the story I wanted to tell. Discord: https://discord.gg/sk63gep
