Chapter 95: Chapter 27 Sweep, Crush, Global Number One
“`
Thunder God ranks first entirely because of his flashy fighting style.
Summoning thunder, controlling thunder, transforming into thunder, especially transforming into thunder—apparently, it captivated countless fans.
It led to him surpassing Fang Qing in popularity, securing the top spot in the rankings this time.
Of course, such civilian rankings carry little authority.
They are merely based on the past achievements of the top ten Evolvers, as well as their personal popularity.
Even so, the rankings of these ten Evolvers do to some extent reflect the outcome of the final battle.
The top three, for example, whether it is Thunder God ranked first, or Fang Qing, or even Yang Wei.
In any case, these three Evolvers are clearly a tier above the remaining seven in strength.
Almost everyone believes the champion will emerge from these three.
As for which one it will be, only after the fights will we know.
In order to ensure fairness in the competition, the official organizers have not yet allowed these three Evolvers to encounter each other in the arena.
Yang Wei is an exception; before awakening a Sixth Rank bloodline, he was once crushed by Thunder God.
But once a Sixth Rank bloodline is awakened, it’s hard to say who will win or lose.
Evolved beings constrained by their own bloodlines can nonetheless dominate their ranking once they awaken a powerful bloodline.
…
The day before the global competition.
Virtual World.
The officials of the competition found Lin Yuan.
“Hello, Mr. Lin Yuan, I am the official assistant for this arena competition,” a woman with soft features and light purple pupils said with a smile.
“Hello.”
Lin Yuan replied with a nod.
“We need you to record a video, mainly your thoughts on the upcoming top ten competition.”
The female assistant paused before continuing, “Of course, if Mr. Lin Yuan is unsure what to say, we can provide a script for you to read from.”
After speaking, the assistant brought out a stack of documents.
Lin Yuan took them, skimmed through, and immediately understood that these scripts were meant for declaring war on the other nine Evolvers.
Although the top three spots of this competition are almost already decided among Fang Qing, Thunder God, and Yang Wei,
regardless, one must not lose momentum.
Even if one doesn’t make it into the top three, there is still fourth, fifth to tenth place.
These pre-competition interviews are designed to provoke and thereby incite other contestants and the audience.
“I’ll just speak for myself.”
After reading through the interview scripts, Lin Yuan felt they did not suit him.
“If Mr. Lin Yuan has his own ideas, then there’s naturally no need for a script.”
The female assistant spoke gently, having followed more than one tournament, she knew that some Evolvers get nervous before a competition, which is why she considerately prepared scripts.
“Then let’s…”
Lin Yuan’s face lit up with a smile, “I wish everyone a pleasant competition.”
“Is that all?” the female assistant asked after hearing Lin Yuan’s response, patiently waiting a moment longer.
When she saw Lin Yuan looking at her, she realized he had finished speaking.
“Isn’t that enough?”
“Or is there a time requirement for the video?”
Lin Yuan inquired.
“There’s no time requirement,” the assistant hurriedly replied, “It just seemed a bit brief.”
The assistant had another thought that she didn’t vocalize—Lin Yuan’s statement lacked impact.
Merely wishing everyone a pleasant competition?
But as an assistant for the competition, she could not dictate what Lin Yuan wanted to say.
“Then I’ll be leaving.”
“Lastly, I hope Mr. Lin Yuan achieves a good ranking.”
With a smile, the female assistant vanished on the spot.
…
That evening.
Lin Yuan continued his usual practice.
At that moment, his smart assistant informed him that the profit distribution from the Martial Dao Evolutionary Path had been settled.
“Let’s see how much money there is.”
Lin Yuan was interested.
The revenue share was settled once a year.
As of that day, Lin Yuan had already gone through one settlement.
However, during that settlement, the Martial Dao Evolutionary Path had barely made it into the top hundred and had not been there long, so the final income was just under ten million.
From the last settlement to this one, the Martial Dao Evolutionary Path had been in the top ten of the evolution rankings for nearly a year, which surely attracted many citizens to practice it.
“1.536 billion?”
Lin Yuan was slightly surprised to see the final revenue share.
This was just the income received; if one were to include the seventy percent taken by the officials and the taxes, wouldn’t the total sales reach nearly ten billion?
[Evolution Path: Martial Dao]
[Number of people practicing Innate Chapter: 7,893]
[Number of people practicing Grandmaster Chapter: Two]
[Number of people practicing Great Grandmaster Chapter: Zero]
…
“Someone has reached the Grand Master Realm?”
Lin Yuan glanced over the related data of people cultivating the Martial Dao Evolutionary Path.
This data came from the Cosmic Human Alliance official records, registered with the Evolver’s Association.
There might be discrepancies, such as Evolvers reaching the Grandmaster Realm without registration.
But it wouldn’t be by much, such cases like Lin Yuan, whose strength surged dramatically every eight months, were extremely rare.
“These numbers don’t add up.”
Lin Yuan looked again at the sales figures for each level of the Martial Dao Evolutionary Path.
“Over two hundred copies of the Third Rank Chapter sold?”
Lin Yuan was somewhat astonished.
To date, the Martial Dao Evolutionary Path was divided into three chapters: First Rank Chapter, Second Layer Chapter, and Third Rank Chapter.
Lin Yuan set the price for these three stages as—
First Rank Chapter: 10,000.
Second Layer Chapter: 500,000.
Third Rank Chapter: 5,000,000.
And the Third Rank Chapter of the Martial Dao Evolutionary Path hadn’t been uploaded for long.
Yet it had already sold over two hundred copies?
Considering the price of 5 million per copy, over two hundred copies meant more than ten billion.
After deducting the seventy percent taken by the officials and the taxes, that would still amount to three to four billion.
That was no small number.
