Chapter 767: This Can’t be Right!

Xingyue Area and Leisi Area were located opposite of each other in the Great World of Tianji.

No one knew how far apart they were. They only knew that on the Great World of Tianji’s map, these two areas were only the size of beans.

Once he went through the mansion’s Tianji Gateway, he was then teleported to the Tianji Hall in the Xingyue Area’s Xingyue City.

Ding. Xingyue Area Prompt: Champion of the Tianji Tournament “Jiang Feng” has arrived in this area!

The moment he stepped out of the Tianji Gateway, he could hear a system announcement being made.

‘What the hell? That is worthy of a prompt too? And it seems like it’s an area-wide prompt!’ Jiang Feng was a bit surprised.

That was obviously telling everyone in the Xingyue Area that he was here!

Originally, he wanted to secretly observe Xingyue Area and then improve himself under the radar, but with what just happened, there was no way he could stay under the radar.

He walked out of the Tianji Hall helplessly.

“Seriously?!”

As soon as he walked out of the Tianji Hall, he was already surrounded by a group of people in front of the Tianji Hall. He was really shocked by the circumstances.

Ding. Tianji System Prompt: As you have left the Leisi Area, your name will not be included within the Tianji Leaderboard!

He looked at the people in front of him curiously when a system prompt entered his ear once again.

That meant that from next month onward, the Tianji Leaderboard would no longer have his name on it as he had already progressed here.

He did not care about the people looking at him, he took out the Tianji Leaderboard and gave it a look.

“Just as I thought!”

Sus’s name was no longer on it. That meant that Sus was already in the Xingyue Area.

Every area had its own Tianji Tournament once a year. Sus was still on the Tianji Leaderboard last month, but he was no longer on it this month. That meant that he had already entered the Xingyue Area last month. He entered Xingyue Area one year later.

From the delay, he guessed that it must be because he wanted to earn more Reputation Points. That was because being at the top of the Tianji Leaderboard could give him a vast amount of Reputation Points.

The moment he thought of that, there was a hint of regret within him.

That was millions, or even tens of millions, of Reputation Points wasted just like that.

Reputation points and player slots were both important to him. Even though he could no longer quickly increase his Reputation Points, he could still use streaming to earn some. If not, he could always join the next Tianji Tournament in Xingyue Area!

Once he had thought things through, he was feeling much more at peace now.

“Jiang Feng, is it?” Just when he was just standing there, an old man with white hair and beard asked him with a smile.

Jiang Feng looked at the old man in front of him and said as he blinked, “I’m not. I’m a little hamster.”

Old man, “???”

Everyone else, “???”

Small squirrel? Then, I am a large tiger!

When he saw everyone rolling their eyes at him, Jiang Feng smiled awkwardly. Seemed like keeping a low profile was no longer possible.

He coughed lightly and asked, “Ahem, ahem. About that, I’m Jiang Feng. Do I, uh, know any of you?”

‘Seriously. I don’t even know you but you’re all here waiting for me. Luckily I have a strong heart, someone else might have already died from the surprise.’

Curiously, he then looked at the stats of the old man in front of him.

Zhou Botong: Heaven Realm Greater Completion

Combat Rating: 92,300

Inner Chi: 72,932

“What? The Old Imp? Are you kidding me?” Jiang Feng was shocked after he read through his stats.

He was just a character in a novel. Why would he be here? Could it be that there was really someone called Zhou Botong in history?

Curiously, he observed the other old men.

“Feng Qingyang? Lu Xiaofeng? Guo Jing? Shi Potian? …Damn it, there must be something wrong with how I started on this map. This can’t be right!”

He was very shocked. If someone were to tell him that he had crossed over to the Heroes of Jin Yong game, he would believe it.

“Looking at your expression, you know us, right?” The Old Imp said to Jiang Feng with a smile.

“How can any of you exist?!” Jiang Feng said as he pointed at those that he knew. While the others were also very strong, he did not know who they were.

“Oh? You are from China?” Lu Xiaofeng, who had a mustache, walked over and looked at Jiang Feng.

“Yes.” Jiang Feng nodded.

When Zhou Botong saw Jiang Feng nodding, Zhou Botong was so excited that he grabbed hold of his shoulder and said, “Oh my! I have waited for a hundred years to finally see someone from China again! From now on, you can follow me! I will protect you!”

“Wait a minute, let me think things through, I am still a bit confused…” He massaged his head and then asked Zhou Botong, “Do you know the book called The Condor Heroes?”

Zhou Botong shook his head. “No. Is it a good book?”

“How old are you?”

“Around three hundred.”

“Do you know the Technique of Ambidexterity?”

“How do you know about the Heaven Rank Secret Manual that I created?”

“Is your wife Ying Gu?”

“That’s right!”

“Is Ying Gu Yideng’s concubine?”

“Who told you that? My wife and I grew up together!”

…

After talking with Zhou Botong, Jiang Feng realized that he was not the person that came from that dynasty. His relationships with others were also different.

He guessed that senior Jin Yong must also be an elite, and was someone that had come to the Great World of Tianji. He knew all of the people here and used them to write his books. Some of them were real people, some of them were made up, but most of the plot was made up.

Regardless, after reading the books, he was quite familiar with all the seniors here.

Including what they could do. Could it be that what was written in the books was real?

Zhou Botong became angry as he stared at him and snorted in a short burst and asked him impatiently, “Why are you asking so much about me? All I want is to ask you if you are willing to be my disciple. Are you willing?”

“I am willing!” He answered without hesitation.

There were plenty of other elites here. Feng Qingyang, Lu Xiaofeng, Guo Jing, and Shi Potian were all powerful characters, Their abilities were also quite powerful. Feng Qingyang’s Dugu Nine Swords, Lu Xiaofeng’s Lingxi Finger, Guo Jing’s Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, Shi Potian’s Taixuan Mantra were all powerful techniques.

But he was not interested in any of those. The one he wanted to learn was the Technique of Ambidexterity.

Once he had mastered that skill, he could then fight as two different people in battle. If he could deal twice the damage, he would be invincible when he was fighting those with the same rank.

He naturally would want Zhou Botong to be his master.

“Hahaha! Good, kid. You are quite gutsy. Come, I will bring you to see your Martial Siblings!”

When Zhou Botong saw that Jiang Feng had agreed to it, he then gave Jiang Feng’s shoulder a good slap. He then said to everyone proudly, “See, he agreed to it. He is now my disciple! Whoever wants to steal him from me, come at me! Go on, scatter! If all of us are here, what is going to happen when the Wicked Demons* attack?”

T/L Note: Not sure if this is the same race as the Heavenly Demons. We’ll see…

“Sigh…” Feng Qingyang and the others let out a sigh and left.

“Come on, kid.” Zhou Botong waved his hand at him and then walked toward Xingyue City’s residential area with a smile.

Jiang Feng was still quite confused as he was not sure what was going on. There were still many questions that he had in his head.
