Chapter 355: Rising to Fame

On the second day after the establishment of the Yipin Hall branch in Weng City, it was destroyed by a large, previously unknown gang of a thousand men. The Yipin Hall staff had no chance to resist.

News related to Yipin Hall usually caught the attention of various organizations, and such a shocking event sent shockwaves through the entire martial world the moment it became known!

When many people saw this news, their first reaction was: “Someone’s prank.” Almost everyone doubted it was true. Although the Yipin Hall branch had a small number of members, their combat strength was extraordinary—how could they be wiped out by an unknown gang of over a thousand?

Was Yipin Hall just some insignificant group? What a joke!

At that time, Yipin Hall was known as a super-large gang with over 15,000 skilled fighters, flawless in every aspect. Even among the three top elite gangs, its strength was unmatched.

But…

As more information and solid evidence emerged, those who had doubted Yipin Hall fell silent.

A group of thousands of young men dressed like students proved their exceptional strength through devastating losses. In less than half an hour, from being ambushed to displaying astonishing fighting spirit, they wiped out most of Yipin Hall’s members. Finally, the numerous disciples of Caiyi Gate completely broke the remaining survivors’ will to fight.

Yipin Hall… had been careless.

Many people reacted this way after watching the battle report. But some chose to dig deeper, uncovering even more secrets.

This battle started with a struggle for resources in Weng City. All evidence indicated that Yipin Hall had provoked the conflict first. After seizing the resource site, they launched a full-scale attack, deliberately luring their opponents into an ambush, as shown in the battle report.

Yipin Hall… a tragedy.

It could only be described as a day of disaster for Yipin Hall. They had clearly chosen the wrong opponent—a young gang with unprecedented unity. Moreover, their ambush was utterly incompetent. After killing hundreds of Caiyi Gate members at first, they fell into a costly battle of attrition against the larger Caiyi Gate force…

Fighting against a team of nearly 10,000 people with just the strength of a branch? Besides being foolish, the onlooking players could only admire their courage.

…

However, on that day, Caiyi Gate rose to fame!

Though they too suffered heavy losses, Yipin Hall paid a steep price and suffered its first defeat on home soil. Caiyi Gate won widespread acclaim for their fierce fighting spirit and determination!

What caught even more attention was the scene of Feng Wu Caiyi, the female leader of Caiyi Gate, leading a thousand men to storm Wengcheng Street—this sight impressed countless Wengcheng players. Dressed in a blood-stained battle robe, with a heroic face and a mighty silver horn stick, she swept through, shaking Wengcheng to its core!
A thousand men surrounded the Yipin Hall branch and slaughtered everyone there, with decisive and resolute action.
Her prowess was widely shared online, with many believing she might become the next strongest “female crime boss” after the leaders of the three major gangs.
That day, countless Wengcheng players expressed a strong desire to join Caiyi Gate, but all were politely refused…
…
As word of this spread throughout the martial world, the main headquarters of Yipin Hall naturally could not remain calm. Many members were recalled for an emergency meeting.
“Killing a thousand enemies at the cost of eight hundred of our own—Yunuo really did a good job…” Huang Sha said coldly, snorting sarcastically.
Meng Yun, seated at the head, stood up. The silver veil covering his face swayed gently, but his eyes revealed a hint of concern: “Killing a thousand enemies at the cost of eight hundred isn’t the right description for this battle.”
“Exactly.”
Xue Yi, with his handsome features, moved his eyes slightly: “We lost our elite fighters, while Caiyi Gate only lost some ordinary members. Very few of our true elites were harmed. We suffered greatly in this battle, but…” He paused, pressing his forehead and rubbing it gently. “The sudden appearance of Yin Hu was beyond our expectations. The plan failed—no blame on Yunuo—but having our branch destroyed meant that one-third of our elite were trapped there, unable to escape or log off, and ultimately died a second time. That’s… somewhat unforgivable.”
“That’s exactly what I think. After losing the battle, he failed to assess the situation properly. Yunuo, temporarily remove him from his position.” Meng Yun decided without hesitation to replace Yunuo from the core team to the outer ranks.
Huang Sha and Xue Yi remained expressionless.
“I didn’t expect Yin Hu to be so strong. And it’s clear now that he’s chosen to side with Kai Xin…”
“If I had known, I should have captured Yin Hu earlier. Kai Xin truly lives up to being the most popular REP champion. 5 million—that’s a huge investment, showing real courage.”
The higher Meng Yun’s praise for Kai Xin, the greater his concern.
“Huang Sha, Xue Yi! Our situation is already very bad.”
“…”
Huang Sha and Xue Yi nodded silently.
Despite having over a dozen branches and combat strength surpassing many gangs, they still lacked the aura of being the top force in the martial world.

But the guy currently in Shenlongjia is growing at an alarming rate!! Although he doesn’t personally lead the gang and remains free, his invisible presence already makes them feel a threatening pressure.
Caiyi Men…
A massive gang of nearly ten thousand members, controlling the resources of several cities and backed by the supplies provided by Kai Xin, is steadily growing and is on the verge of rising to become one of the top large-scale gangs.
Mu Family!
This emerging gang, with Kai Xin’s influence, has already dealt heavy blows to Yipin Tang, Lingxiao Palace, and Lengyue Palace from the start. It has seized the rich resources of Shenlongjia and even stabilized the gang competition landscape, with a trend emerging toward a union of five major gangs dominating Shenlongjia.
Others might not be able to calculate the value of the mines in Shenlongjia, but how could Mengyun Hui not? Once the Mu Family accumulates enough time and resources and merges with Caiyi Men, even giants like Yipin Tang, Xiayi Men, and Lingxiao Palace will have to take them seriously.
On equal footing!
This is success in terms of game resources and gang strength.
Additionally…
Kai Xin himself, Lei Zhan, Xiao Bei, Yao Shi Wanneng, as well as high-ranking members of Caiyi Men like Yitong, and the mysterious expert Yin Hu—these experts combined can instantly form an unbreakable group of top-tier fighters.
“It’s a shame that Wudu Men has collapsed. Otherwise, we could at least secretly organize forces to target Caiyi Men and slow down their progress…” Huang Sha said regretfully. “At this rate, one day Kai Xin will appear at our Yipin Tang headquarters.”
“The better,” Xueyi said with a faint smile, revealing coldness. “I’ve been worried about not having a suitable opponent to test my skills. By the way, Huang Sha, hurry up with that task of yours. Don’t wait until Kai Xin shows up and you have to hide…”
“Get lost!”
“Enough, you two, stop arguing. Pass the order—keep a close watch on every move Kai Xin makes in Shenlongjia. From now on, I need to know everything about him.”
Mengyun’s cold voice sounded as if it were coming from another dimension.
