Summoning Players into My Game Chapter 719 - 371: This World Has Gone Mad (Part 3)

"Wushang, this responsibility weighs far heavier than anyone anticipated. Are you truly ready to shoulder it?" An elder around forty years old couldn’t hold back from questioning Luo Wushang.
Suddenly, the remaining elders turned their gazes toward Luo Wushang, filled with worry.
Prior to hearing this revelation, they had viewed Luo Wushang as the perfect guild master candidate—talented, capable, and strikingly beautiful. They believed she could swiftly restore Celestial Might to glory.
Yet now, with these mysterious powerhouses surging forth, unless Luo Wushang possessed strength to rival them, Celestial Might could face total collapse.
"Elder Lu, have no fears—Wushang possesses that power." Zhang Qingwei faced the anxious elders with a grin and declared, "That youth is formidable, yet he falls short against Wushang."
"Exactly." Zhao Hu nodded while eyeing the youth on the screen.
Rock-Breaking Fist!
Thunder Light Palm!
The young man executed these techniques masterfully, hitting Micro Initial Rank in battle prowess, akin to a Bone Forging Realm player in Descent of High Martial. Zhao Hu, at Blood Coagulation Realm, would simply unleash Reversed Star Hand to crush him instantly and skip the hassle.
Right then, Elder Yu Tian, one of the senior-most elders, gave a nod: "Passing the guild master role to Wushang poses no issue."
Elder Yu Tian’s endorsement stunned the assembled elders. They never imagined the veteran Yu Tian would affirm that Luo Wushang now wielded such prowess.
Still, his backing greatly eased the elders’ concerns.
With Elder Yu Tian’s word, it signaled Luo Wushang’s might surpassed the youth in the recording by a wide margin. Thus, she could vie for supremacy, sparing Celestial Might humiliation against these enigmatic foes ahead.
"Very well, starting now, Wushang becomes guild master." Chu Qingtian glanced at the willing Luo Wushang and breathed a sigh of relief.
By current standards of power, he lacked the right to helm the guild. If Luo Wushang trusted her abilities, it was ideal—grand trials like Eternal Immortal Path loomed, offering Celestial Might a shot at redemption.
Relief washed over the elders, grateful for a prodigy like Luo Wushang in their ranks. Tough times lay ahead for the guild, yet revival to former heights seemed possible.
"As the new guild master, I’ll issue my inaugural command." Luo Wushang rose and proclaimed gravely, "Effective immediately, the guild drops all other game operations—everyone devotes fully to Descent of High Martial!"
"Wushang, what’s on your mind? Abandoning every current game venture—what does that entail?" Chu Qingtian stared at Luo Wushang, blurting out his objection.
Celestial Might’s vast size and riches stemmed from those ongoing game pursuits. Ditching them spelled disaster, especially to pour into Descent of High Martial over the blazing-hot Eternal Immortal Path.
Maintaining tens of thousands of staff demanded steady funds; without them, collapse loomed, plunging all into dire straits.
As elders rose to protest, Luo Wushang eyed Zhang Qingwei nearby. He swiftly operated the virtual display on the table. Instantly, the massive conference screen lit up with Descent of High Martial’s official forums and fresh updates.
"Game acceleration?"
"Such tech exists?"
Chu Qingtian and the elders fell silent upon witnessing the forums and patches for Descent of High Martial, their stares brimming with shock.
Though Luo Wushang and her group had praised this beta game as exceptional and deserving total guild focus, the elders doubted it could outshine Eternal Immortal Path.
Yet Descent of High Martial boasted over a hundred million pre-orders at 4999 each—an eye-popping feat. It trailed Eternal Immortal Path but crushed Pilgrimage Fire’s free reservations; at 4999 upfront, it barred the masses.
Beyond reservations, game acceleration tech stunned even more—a holy grail for game giants, unrealized until this beta version.
"This game’s promise speaks for itself. Inside Descent of High Martial, I’ve secured the Town Construction Order to found a town in the Wraith Mountain Range. Elders, you grasp its worth." Luo Wushang indicated the game world onscreen and asserted boldly, "Building this town will easily sustain the guild now. Players craving in-game living, especially for cultivation and resource gains, will pay top yuan for fitting homes. More towns mean surging revenues, dwarfing today’s earnings by multiples—dozens even."
"Life players might snag in-game homes, but lavish spending? Unlikely. Everyone shares equal time in-game; casual folk dodge fights, opting for NPC hubs." Elder Lu voiced skepticism, puzzled why Luo Wushang trusted ordinary players to splurge on virtual land that felt pointless.
Luo Wushang, prepared for this, curved her lips into a smile: "What if game leveling boosts real-life lifespan too?"
