Chapter 192: Chapter 190: Three War Gods Carrying a Bronze

Principal Wang and the team members were dumbfounded. The players didn’t know what game time cards were, while Principal Wang was just baffled that a tycoon like Fang Chenyi would idle in Jianye City to accumulate experience just to save a little money on game time.

When Fang Chenyi finished speaking, Principal Wang couldn’t help but ask:

"Brother Fang, you’re not pulling my leg, are you? With your kind of money, you’re worried about the cost of a game time card?"

Hearing this, Fang Chenyi chuckled.

"Back in the day, my family wasn’t well-off at all. My dad’s monthly salary was only a little over two thousand yuan. And I had a younger sister to support, too."

Principal Wang curled his lip. ’Who are you trying to kid?’ he thought.

But since Fang Chenyi wasn’t going to be straight with him, he didn’t press the issue and changed the subject.

"Brother Fang, do you still play games?"

Fang Chenyi shook his head. He didn’t really play anymore, mainly because he was too busy "collecting scraps" and didn’t have the time.

’Too busy collecting scraps... hmm...’ A thousand expletives exploded in Principal Wang’s mind.

"Are you guys playing a battle royale? Isn’t the max squad size four people? How are the six of you playing?"

Hearing Fang Chenyi’s question, two of the young men answered a little shyly:

"Brother Fang, the two of us are substitutes."

Fang Chenyi nodded. ’Ah, so they’re substitutes.’ Thinking of the special skill he had acquired earlier, he felt a sudden itch to try it out. He looked at Principal Wang and said:

"You know, it’s been a long time since I’ve played. It’s not every day I get to see a pro team in person. How about we play a round?"

Principal Wang immediately agreed. He was practically laughing. His biggest goal for this visit was to get on this VIP’s good side. Now that the man himself suggested playing a game, he was all for it.

"Haha, then I’ll get to witness Brother Fang’s skills firsthand! So, Brother Fang, how should we play? Duos or squads?"

Fang Chenyi thought for a moment. "We’ve got so many people, let’s do squads. But I should warn you, I’m terrible. I die right after landing all the time."

When he used to play, it was usually solos or with a random squad. After all, the friends he could play with all had their own things to do, so it was hard to get a full team together.

Just then, Bai Menghan walked in carrying two platters of washed fruit. Seeing her, Fang Chenyi couldn’t help but grin and wave her over.

"Come on, Menghan, come play a round with us. I’ll show you what it’s like to skydive! Haha!"

Bai Menghan smiled helplessly. "You guys go ahead. I don’t know how to play."

Principal Wang took the custom phones being handed over by his team members and offered them to Fang Chenyi and Bai Menghan, saying with a smile:

"Haha, here you go, Brother Fang, and for you, ma’am. The specs on these phones are custom-built. They run incredibly smoothly. Why don’t we use these?"

But Fang Chenyi waved him off, casually pulling out his own phone and giving it a little shake. "No need, I’ll just use my own. I’m not used to phones that are too fancy. Here, Menghan, you don’t have the game on your phone, so you can use this one."

After a moment’s thought, he took one of the phones from Principal Wang and handed it to Bai Menghan. Then, he opened the game on his own phone.

Seeing that Fang Chenyi was already loading into the game, Principal Wang quickly launched it as well, not forgetting to call out to his team captain beside him:

"Bufan, you join us."

All the team members froze when they heard the boss call out Bufan’s name. Bufan was their star fragger, the backbone of their team.

He was also the strongest player on the entire ’Principal’s Team,’ with a personal record of 29 kills in a high-tier squad match!

High-tier lobbies weren’t like stomping on newbies; you could say that every single player in them was formidable.

But on second thought, it made sense. They had never seen their boss treat anyone with this much respect.

The young man named Bufan, who seemed rather introverted, simply nodded, picked up his phone, and started logging into the game.

Since Bai Menghan didn’t have her own account and was using a team member’s phone, she just used their account. Principal Wang added Fang Chenyi on QQ and invited him to the squad.

"Uh... Brother Fang, this... this is ’Passionate Bronze II’...? Brother Fang, you must be on a smurf account, right?"

Looking at the character on the screen dressed in the game’s default outfit, Principal Wang couldn’t help but voice his doubt.

Fang Chenyi gave an embarrassed laugh.

"Ahaha, I’m just too much of a noob. I’ve only played a few times, and I almost always die right after landing, so my rank never went up. But wow, are you three all Invincible War Gods? Impressive!"

A Passionate Bronze standing between three Invincible War Gods. The sight was, frankly, a little ridiculous. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Fortunately, Fang Chenyi didn’t care at all. ’Rank is just a meaningless title,’ he thought. ’If I really wanted to, I could reach their level in just a few days.’

’Of course, he would never actually do that. If he had that much time to play games, he might as well go collect some scraps. At least that’s productive.’

Though he was at a loss for words, Principal Wang didn’t say anything more. After getting Fang Chenyi’s okay, he started the match on the island map.

What none of them noticed, however, was that from the moment they entered the game, one of their friends had started spectating them.

And among these friends was a veteran streamer known as Fallen God.

In the streamer’s live broadcast, Bufan’s gameplay was on screen as he laughed heartily.

"Haha, you won’t believe it, fam! God Fan is actually online and playing at this hour! I’m just gonna stop my own queue and act as your commentator for a bit. Let’s all enjoy some of God Fan’s divine plays."

During the pre-game countdown on the plane, the streamer casually clicked the spectator-swap button, wanting to see who else was on the team this round.

"Cold Blood is here too... Let’s see who’s next. Hey, holy shit! Did you guys see that? The Principal is in this match! Did the Principal get an itch to play, and Bufan’s crew is playing with him? Whoa, holy shit, it’s only been a few days—when did the Principal hit Invincible War God? Badass!"

As he was marveling at this, he casually clicked to switch views again. The next moment, a character in default gear with the game ID ’Fang Chenyi’ appeared on the stream.

The entire stream chat exploded in an instant, the bullet comments scrolling by like oil in a boiling-hot wok:

"Holy crap, has this dude achieved enlightenment and returned to his original state?"

"Yo, did you guys see? This dude is actually a Passionate Bronze!"

"Holy shit, he really is! Passionate Bronze? As a Stubborn Silver, I refuse to accept this!"

"Three Invincible War Gods carrying a Passionate Bronze... now that’s a bold move! 66666"
