Chapter 317: A New Model!

As expected!
With happy confidence and Xu Xin’s support, the Lonely Three Wolves decided to contact the official contacts. After explaining Happy’s intentions, the other party hesitated for a moment before agreeing, but they put forward a condition: they would handle the specifics, such as pricing.
Happy was aware of this—there was a dedicated advisory team on the official website that would assess public perception of prices to maximize profits. He agreed without hesitation.
Once an agreement was reached, Happy didn’t need to handle anything personally. The official team quickly placed the REP ads from the Reeds Marsh battle at the top of the forums and immediately revamped them, introducing a dedicated paid system.
The prices were beyond Happy’s expectations…
Not too high, but definitely not low!
50 RMB!
“Experience the ultimate visual and auditory feast of ‘The Best Among Masters’—seeing through the veil of strength behind the renowned Happy!”
At first, this news didn’t get much response.
After all, many people were used to free REP, so they stayed away and chose to wait, trying to understand the uniqueness of this alternative system.
The official team had clearly planned the paid system for a long time, providing detailed instructions. For example, after logging into the game, there was an option called “Treasure Record.” Any REP purchased would be added there, allowing users to experience others’ perspectives.
The interface was stunning!
The advertising slogans were incredibly tempting…
Many students from Nanhua University tried it out after hearing the news, sparking a craze for experiencing it on the Nanhua martial arts rankings.
The process was quite lengthy…
It started with Happy on the ship, the sudden appearance of pirates—everything felt like a movie.
The protagonist was Happy, appearing just in time in various places to oversee everything.
Then came General Yang’s plot—Happy alone facing countless soldiers suddenly appearing in the Reeds Marsh… and the stunning transformation of the Murong family’s transport ship!
“Damn!”
“It’s like making a movie…”
The breathtaking changes in the transport ships, along with realistic mechanical sounds, gave people a profound sense of the intensity and excitement of an impending battle.
During the process, Happy alone leaped onto the ship’s wing, facing countless martial artists. His actions made many people feel the immense confidence of “The Best Among Masters” while experiencing it. They held their breath, filled with a fierce desire to fight a thousand enemies alone—almost bursting with emotion…
Kill!!

The view changed rapidly. From one ship to another, Happy met everyone’s needs—rushing around, killing wildly, with a series of actions that were dazzling and astonishing, as if only he was invincible among the crowd! Of course… There were also many experts who were more impressed by the continuity of Happy’s actions and the pills he swallowed—turning out to be expensive Jade Dew Pills. Shocking! Revealing! Many discoveries left them deeply moved, feeling it was worth the price… The climax kept coming! Seeing the devastated state of the ships here and being trapped in this waters, everyone felt a strong sense of tragic heroism… But then! Happy did something crazy again that drove everyone wild. Alone, he broke through the encirclement and charged at a group of experts in the Life and Death Realm in the distance! His relentless and fierce momentum deeply moved everyone! The dazzling views, steady tactics, and magnificent moves kept everyone holding their breath from start to finish—until General Yang died, and everyone lost their fighting spirit in front of Happy… END! … It lasted over an hour! Many people took time to reflect, and an unprecedented frenzy erupted on the forums, with everyone discussing the impact and value of this REP, as well as their discoveries and emotions. Posts everywhere were about the same topic! Some alternative topics barely surfaced before being drowned out by thousands of posts and disappearing forever; this spectacle deeply piqued the curiosity of more onlookers! Especially after learning that this experience was far beyond what ordinary REPs could offer, more people chose to pay to experience it… Even in the game, players who were asked if they had tried “Happy Vision” and answered “no” were looked down upon. “Tsk tsk, those guys from the official team are really amazing—they’ve made it look like an action movie. I tried it once and want to try it again. I bet it’ll be a huge success…” Bai Lang and his friends excitedly discussed this after quitting the game. “It’s mainly because of Happy, right?” “Exactly!” “Heh, of course. Damn it, Happy must be rich now! Tomorrow, I’ll just quit my job as a planner and become his manager.” Qi Ci joked through gritted teeth. Chen Fan poured cold water on them: “Forget it. The three of us definitely won’t make it. We’d only accept 10% of the profits, but would Happy trust us with his public relations? I think Xu Xin would be a better fit.”

Qi Ci and Bai Langhei smiled and nodded.
The brothers in the other dormitories looked at each other, not knowing what they were talking about…
…
Also at Nanhua University, the moment Xu Yao took off her gaming headset, she silently set it down, curled her legs around it, and her eyes showed deep confusion.
“…”
Awakened by a phone ring, Xu Yao picked up the phone.
In the past, seeing that name on the caller ID would usually make her very happy, with a hint of anticipation, but now, seeing that name, she felt a heavy weight and a slight unease.
Finally, Xu Yao pressed the answer button.
“Hello…”
Her voice was soft, even with a slight tremor she hadn’t noticed herself.
Seizing the odd tone in her voice, the other end fell silent for a moment before a pleasant male voice spoke gently:
“What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?”
“No, I’m fine.”
Xu Yao touched her slightly cold arm, took a deep breath, and regained her usual tone: “Is there something?”
“It’s still that matter.”
The tone on the other end changed:
“Your progress has been too slow lately, and new developments have occurred. Happy is not only secretly supporting Caiyi Gate to grow rapidly but also seems to intend to support another faction, aiming to establish a foothold in Baokang, Hubei…”
“I’ve heard about that too; it seems to be true.”
“Regardless of that, they’ve now launched a paid REP strategy system through their official website, which seems to be quite successful. Someone with such ambition is likely hard to be recruited by other forces…” The voice became icy cold, and Xu Yao shuddered:
“What do you mean…”
“Now, there’s a new plan!”
