The match between Qin Xuan and Gu Qingying concluded with Qin Xuan's decisive victory.
Hu Zian's poison was sent for inspection, while Qin Xuan and his group followed Gu Qingying to her private garage to collect Qin Xuan's winnings.
"Wow! There are so many luxury cars here?!"
As soon as the garage lights were turned on, Hu Zian exclaimed in envy.
His face was still pale, but he couldn't suppress his excitement.
Pagani Huayra, McLaren P1, Ferrari LaFerrari.
Every car parked in the garage was a limited-edition sports car he had seen online just yesterday.
Not only that, but there were also vintage limited-edition classic supercars and futuristic concept supercars.
It was more than enough to host a car show.
Qin Xuan was also very interested in these sports cars.
Their sleek bodies and streamlined designs all appealed to him.
Among the many sports cars, a red and black supercar with a prominent front and a thick, rounded body immediately caught Qin Xuan's eye.
This was the Bugatti Veyron he had been looking forward to.
However, the model he had seen was a hardtop, while Gu Qingying's was a convertible.
"Bugatti Veyron Black Bess Legend Edition, equipped with an 8.0-liter W16 engine, with a maximum horsepower of 1200.
"0-100 km/h acceleration time is 2.6 seconds, with a top speed of 408.84 kilometers per hour.
"Globally limited to 3 units.
"It's yours now."
Gu Qingying knew the specifications of every one of her sports cars by heart.
Even so, she showed no hesitation.
She had lost the bet and was prepared to honor it.
Hearing Gu Qingying recite the parameters, Qin Xuan's heart filled with joy.
He eagerly got into the Veyron's driver's seat.
His first impression of the car was summed up in one word: simplicity.
Inside, there was nothing but the dashboard and a few simple buttons.
There were no electronic screens or navigation systems.
However, there was a small LCD screen to display the time.
"You can take it out for a test drive. Turn right out of the garage, there's a road that's perfect for testing cars."
Qin Xuan nodded, started the engine, and drove towards the road Gu Qingying had mentioned.
It wasn't until he got on the road that he understood why Bugatti was one of the world's few supercars.
Its acceleration was incredibly fast.
With just a press of the accelerator, its speed could instantly surge past 100 kilometers per hour.
And the sound of its engine was also very pleasing.
It hummed like a small fighter jet.
"This is amazing!"
After a simple test drive, Qin Xuan's admiration for the car reached an immeasurable level.
At the same time, he felt very fortunate.
He was glad he had met Fu Shan Gao and Gu Qingying, otherwise, he might never have considered buying a supercar in his life.
Back in the garage, he test-drove the Apollo IE.
Although the Apollo couldn't compare to the Bugatti in terms of top speed, it was no less impressive in appearance.
If the Bugatti was a robust, muscular man, then the Apollo was a lean warrior with sharp, defined musculature.
Its coolness and prestige were off the charts.
Qin Xuan entrusted Fu Shan Gao with delivering the Apollo to his home in Jiangcheng, and then drove the Bugatti Veyron away from Gu Qingying's residence.
To his surprise, this top-of-the-line convertible supercar, worth tens of millions, even hundreds of millions, required him to manually retract the roof.
His lack of worldly knowledge was met with Gu Qingying's unreserved mockery, "Go and check for yourself, how many top supercars have automatic roofs?"
Qin Xuan: "..."
On the way back, Qin Xuan received a call from Li Wenjing.
The latter informed him that Ling Wang and Bao Bao had agreed to join the team.
TS and Rookie were also actively in negotiations.
Only Jack was proving difficult.
He hadn't finished his World Championship yet, and transfer matters might have to wait until after the tournament.
Qin Xuan understood this and asked Li Wenjing to continue following up.
As for the other divisions of IG, he had no understanding of them.
Fortunately, he handed over the negotiations to Li Wenjing.
Vroom—
Vroom—
As soon as Qin Xuan and Hu Zian arrived at their residence, Qin Xuan's phone rang again.
He checked it and saw it was General Su Nishang, who had tested his destructive power yesterday.
"Qin Xuan, the higher-ups have urgently discussed your situation.
"If it's convenient, please come to the research center again today."
Qin Xuan agreed, turned around, and headed back to Phoenix Mountain.
He called Su Nishang again and was then led in through the small door by her.
"Grandmaster Qin, please, have a seat."
Su Nishang was very pleased to see Qin Xuan.
After Qin Xuan left yesterday, she had urgently submitted his information to the higher authorities.
The leaders attached great importance to him, not only launching an urgent discussion immediately but also inviting many top experts who rarely appeared in public to participate!
After all, he was a Grandmaster at the age of 26!
Let alone in Longguo, even on a global scale, he was the most prodigious talent.
The results of their overnight discussion had just been communicated to her via a top-secret call.
"We've called you here today mainly to inform you of the decision from the Apex."
"The Apex?"
"Are they the leaders of Longguo?"
"Do I need to stand up?"
Although Qin Xuan had long surpassed ordinary people, his twenty-plus years of education still made him a bit reserved.
That was the Apex, the greatest existence in Longguo.
"Heh, you don't need to be nervous. We're just conveying the decision of the Apex.
"You can listen while seated."
Smiling, she gently pressed Qin Xuan to sit down and then read aloud from a printed document in her hand:
"Given that Mr. Qin Xuan has achieved Grandmaster-level destructive power and possesses immense potential.
"He is hereby appointed as Longguo's one hundredth extraordinary Grandmaster.
"He is conferred the military rank of General and shall enjoy the benefits of a General.
"He is granted the privileges of a First-Class Grandmaster.
"We hope that Mr. Qin Xuan will advance and develop alongside Longguo in the future, working together to build a civilized and harmonious new Longguo!"
After finishing, Su Nishang smiled and extended her right hand to Qin Xuan, saying, "Congratulations, Grandmaster Qin.
"From now on, we are peers.
"Allow me to reintroduce myself, my name is Su Nishang, you can call me by my full name, or you can call me Nishang."
Qin Xuan quickly stood up and extended his right hand as well, "Nishang."
"And please don't call me Grandmaster Qin anymore, it feels too awkward.
"Just call me Qin Xuan."
"Alright, Qin Xuan."
"Your identification documents are being expedited for production.
"Once they are ready, I will have them mailed directly to your home.
"Now, I will elaborate on the benefits you are entitled to as a Grandmaster, and the obligations you must fulfill."
