Chapter 853 Being Treated Like a Beggar

The outcome of this battle left everyone who had expected to see Chu Tian ridiculed extremely disappointed.

However, Chu Tian's fans were all as excited as if they had been injected with adrenaline.

16.5 seconds of crowd control.

Peak burst output.

Every single attack landed a weak point hit.

A tank profession with fifty thousand health.

Still, it couldn't last.

In truth, they really wanted Jian Zhi Cang Tian to hold on a bit longer.

They wanted to see what other ultimate moves De Shen had in store.

What other crowd control skills were there?

How long could he control the opponent in total?

The last skill he used was Typhoon.

He definitely had more moves.

Because the Typhoon skill was a universal skill, usable in all forms.

It didn't require transforming into the Owlkin form to use it.

This meant that even when transformed into an Eaglet, he still had follow-up combos!

Many people felt they hadn't seen enough.

Chu Tian's fluid, ultimate burst output.

It was as if he was using some kind of external cheat program.

"Infuriating, so infuriating!"

Someone pounded their chest in frustration.

"What's there to be infuriated about, brother?" another person nearby asked.

"Jian Zhi Cang Tian! He's too flimsy! Not a real man!"

This fellow gritted his teeth and rolled his eyes as he spoke.

His comment made the people around him roll their eyes even harder.

"I say, brother, have you forgotten that the first guy who went up lasted less than three seconds?"

Upon hearing this, the fellow rolling his eyes was stunned.

"Uh..."

Seeing his silence.

The people nearby turned their heads to look at him.

"Hey... aren't you the 'two-second man' from earlier?"

Suddenly, many people turned their gaze towards him.

It turned out that the person who claimed Jian Zhi Cang Tian wasn't a real man.

Was the Berserker Warrior who had gone up first, and was defeated by Chu Tian in less than three seconds without even breaking a sweat.

This guy, realizing he had been recognized.

Shrank his neck.

His body faded.

And he actually disappeared.

He had exited the spectator area.

Chu Tian, still on the dueling field, smiled faintly at Zhao Lei.

The latter wore a helpless expression.

At the same time, both of them had their bodies fade.

All spectators simultaneously received a system notification.

[Ding Dong... The room owner has exited the room. This room will be disbanded by the system in three minutes.]

The crowd checked the time. It was already the official launch time for the Heavenly Dao world.

No longer lingering, they all exited as well.

However, some observant individuals uploaded recordings of Chu Tian's two matches onto the official Heavenly Dao world website.

Naturally, this ignited another wave of fervor.

Chu Tian, of course, paid no mind to these matters. However, he had found a place to improve his combat experience.

Even if he might only encounter novices, practicing frequently would improve his skill execution feel.

He knew very well that his skills in Heavenly Dao were directly linked to reality.

He was different from ordinary martial artists!

One could say that the Heavenly Dao world had made him.

Entering the Heavenly Dao world once more, his spawn location was still on the small hill outside the fortress.

Gazing at the massive fortress before him, its four city gates were wide open.

Many people were already entering and exiting, a constant flow of traffic.

Just the number of people seen at the city gates was comparable to the traffic at the gates of Shengjing's main city.

This fortress was located directly south of the Shengjing urban area.

Its geographical position was excellent, with monster spawn areas around it ranging from level 45 to 60.

This was precisely the primary leveling spot for the current top-tier players.

The fortress's importance stemmed from its location.

Being closer to the leveling spots made it more convenient.

In a game where the return stone could only be used once every twelve hours, the time wasted in returning to the city for resupply was immeasurable.

Even with a guild base return stone, it was still a twelve-hour cooldown.

The first thing players did upon logging in each day was to resupply in the main city, and that period was also the peak time.

Every shop required queuing, and the system shops were outrageously expensive.

But without resupplying, leaving the city meant accomplishing nothing.

Therefore, it was easy to imagine how much convenience a fortress near the leveling spots would provide.

At the very least, players wouldn't need to waste time traveling back to the main city for resupplies mid-journey.

Slowly walking into his own fortress, Chu Tian looked at an open space by the roadside near the city gate.

Countless people were already setting up stalls to sell their wares.

Many others were shouting for party members of specific professions.

It was a scene of bustling activity and prosperity.

Chu Tian smiled. This was exactly as he remembered it.

Qi Xi had indeed managed the fortress according to his original plans.

In his previous life, when the fortress first appeared, it was after he had fallen from grace, and he had mingled among ordinary players.

He would set up a stall at the fortress entrance to sell some odds and ends, and look for parties here.

However, good times didn't last. The areas in front of all fortress gates were designated as no-stall zones, and shops sprang up like mushrooms.

This squeezed out the living space for ordinary players.

Therefore, Chu Tian had long told Qi Xi that the land in front of their fortress gates could not be rented out to any shops.

The closest shop to the city gate had to be a thousand meters away.

Looking at the bustling city gate, Chu Tian smiled contentedly. He recalled that in his previous life, he had been one of them, and even worse off than ordinary players.

He knew even better the hardships of their difficult lives. While he couldn't change everyone's situation this time,

At least, he wouldn't exploitatively strip these people of their living space.

He slowly walked through the crowd, reaching a thousand meters away. From afar, he could see buildings appearing on both sides of the road.

The first thing that caught his eye were the shops on both sides of the road, two on each side.

On the left... there was the "Everything Pharmacy" and the "Everything Engineering Shop."

On the right... there was the "Everything Blacksmith" and the "Everything Tailor."

"Hmm?" Chu Tian stopped here.

When did this blacksmith and tailor shop open?

This Mo Shi fellow... had actually expanded his business.

Was he planning to set up all the sub-profession shops?

Chu Tian touched his nose. He, the hands-off manager, was truly idle. He didn't even know when the chain stores expanded their business.

However, this guy was good, truly reassuring.

He had to admit that Huang Xueyi's judgment was quite good.

It was just that... he had "intercepted" him in this life.

Chu Tian secretly rejoiced, stopped at the entrance of the tailor shop, hesitated, and then walked inside.

The tailor shop was a highly profitable industry.

The tailors here were unlike tailors in other games who made equipment that increased attributes, etc.

Instead, they produced fashion items, similar to those in money-burning games.

Beautiful fashion items always captivated people, and could attract countless girls.

As Chu Tian stepped inside, a couple who appeared to be dating had entered the shop just before him.

These two, their armor was unrecognizable, their entire bodies were covered in fashion items, making them look truly beautiful and luxurious.

"Welcome to Everything Tailor Shop!"

As Chu Tian stepped inside, two young receptionists on either side bowed to him.

Then, one of the girls, a step ahead, went to greet the couple in front.

The other receptionist, evidently a step slower, pouted.

She then cast her gaze towards Chu Tian, but only glanced at him briefly before stepping to greet someone behind Chu Tian.

"Welcome to Everything Tailor Shop, sir. What kind of attire do you need? As our name suggests, we have everything. Allow me to show you?"

As she spoke, she led that person inside.

Chu Tian stood stunned at the entrance. He looked down at himself.

"Do I look like a pauper?"

Chu Tian muttered to himself.

What was visible on him was the original appearance after wearing equipment.

There was silver, bronze, gold...

Different colors shimmered.

Of course, there were only a few pieces of gold-tier equipment.

Although it looked like he was covered in a multitude of colors, the receptionist's eyes were sharp. She could tell from Chu Tian that his equipment was all low-level stuff.

However, Chu Tian's expression turned grim. What was Mo Shi doing? The quality of the receptionists was like this?

Judging by appearance was a major taboo for businesses. It seemed he needed to give them a good lesson, perhaps even a purge!
