I said it all depends on your luck, Fanxingkong. Whether you can win the grand prize in the Year of the Dragon lucky charm scratch-off event is hard to say; it depends on your choice. Since the winner of the New Year's Eve buffet event has already chosen a Year of the Dragon lucky charm, it's possible they've already won the first prize in this scratch-off event. We'll have to wait for the next part of the event to find out who won the best prizes. Some guests had a chance to win first or second prize when choosing words for their Year of the Dragon lucky charms, but they didn't win, while other guests received luxurious rewards—they can only be envious.

Fan Xingkong said that even if he didn't win the first prize, the second or third prize would be great. He was quite surprised and excited by this kind of promotional activity, as there was a chance to win a very high amount of competition funds. Lin Junxuan also had a Year of the Dragon lucky charm? He wondered how to get the prize, and whether there were any limited-edition gifts like this. He kindly inquired about it for his friend Lin Junxuan.

I mentioned that Lin Junxuan wasn't scheduled to attend the Dragon Year Banquet at Zunyan Longdian, but he would participate in the Dragon Year competition at Shenghui Shengong, which was already confirmed. Lin Junxuan conveyed his thoughts through Guan Zejin Caijielian, saying he hoped to perform well in the competition and that his three close female friends would encourage him. Lin Junxuan will also receive a Dragon Year Lucky Charm, a special gift made on-site at Zunyan Longdian. However, it will be made for him after all six other VIP guests have received theirs; he can't choose the material or the words. Since he won't be participating in the lucky charm scratch-off activity, he can choose one of two prizes: 100 million yuan in competition funds or five super prop gift packs. This gift is quite acceptable. Lin Junxuan's Dragon Year Lucky Charm will be designed with the help of his team members and will be a nice souvenir.

Fan Xingkong remarked that Lin Junxuan was truly a lucky lad, always getting good things happen to him. Lin Junxuan served as the chief host of the Dragon Year celebration, while many other VIPs merely performed guest acts, far fewer than Lin Junxuan and his three confidantes. This time, Lin Junxuan directly received a reward equivalent to the fourth or fifth prize in the Dragon Year Lucky Draw scratch card activity, more than some VIPs, or even receiving the same reward—quite a generous treatment. The Source Master was truly kind to Lin Junxuan and his team members, making even the several Celestial Saints envious.

What am I envious of? Lin Junxuan doesn't have the precious opportunity to participate in the Dragon Year Grand Banquet like you six distinguished guests. He wasn't qualified to participate in the dragon-patterned private quiz activity held in the Dragon Palace, and he received no reward. Relatively speaking, you received more financial rewards. You had the honor of participating in the grand banquet, a privilege that will be a memory and a topic of conversation in the future. Many, many deities want to participate in such a grand banquet but haven't had the opportunity yet; not everyone has the honor to attend.

Fan Xingkong smiled and said, "Very well, it's already a great honor to be able to participate in the Dragon Year Grand Banquet." Although Lin Junxuan had a good relationship with them, and they got along well—he was a good friend—since this was an individual competition for everyone participating in the Dragon Year event, results should take priority, and friendship could wait. Everyone should strive for good performances and results in the Dragon Year competition. How wonderful it would be to receive awards and honors from prestigious competitions!

He said that choosing the words for the Year of the Dragon lucky charm now requires careful consideration; he needs to think it over again. Does the owner have any clues or hints? Even a riddle would be helpful. He doesn't want to miss out on a huge reward and doesn't want to choose the wrong one. He wants a prize with substantial funds, not a smaller one or those super item packs. He wonders which lucky VIP will be so fortunate as to win a massive prize of one billion or five hundred million yuan; just imagine how amazing that would be!

I said there were no further reminders. I've already asked you, Fanxingkong, to choose two words from the five, and then from the two remaining options, I'll give you the Dragon Year Lucky Charm with the higher prize value. You should be content. Future VIPs won't have so many choices. As for whether you can win the grand prize or a higher reward in the Dragon Year Lucky Charm scratch-off event, that depends on your own choice, Fanxingkong.

Fanxingkong agreed. The Source Master had treated him with great kindness and care; how could he be ungrateful? He wanted to express his gratitude for the Source Master's kindness and grace. Now, without further hesitation, he would rely on luck, praying for great fortune and wealth. He wanted to choose a Dragon Year auspicious plaque with the phrase "Dragon and Phoenix Bringing Auspiciousness" and "The Divine Dragon in the Abyss," believing it would bring good luck.

I asked you, "What was the purpose of your choice of these two words, 'Brahma's Void'? I'd like to hear your thoughts."

Fan Xingkong said that the dragon and phoenix motif was a common royal decoration and a frequently used auspicious phrase. It's a historically significant idiom with auspicious and beautiful connotations. It also frequently appears in modern folk festivals and celebrations; some festival lanterns, palace lanterns, and painted ornaments feature this pattern, and it's also used in wedding attire in some countries, showcasing magnificence, wealth, and classical charm. The dragon and phoenix motif also symbolizes the harmony between emperor and empress, and marital bliss. Although his Liu Menglan's soul had been completely annihilated for a century—a mortal spirit gone in all dimensions, unable to be reborn, and further hampered by the curse of the cosmic deity of yesteryear, its reappearance was impossible—he loved and was grateful to his girlfriend. He didn't want anyone to replace her, nor did he want any replica. In the long years to come, he would still miss Liu Menglan, this pure and angelic girl, and reminisce about the past. In the illusory era, that was his real life experience; however, mortal spirits cannot be retained, so he could only respect this rule and be grateful for the beauty and purity that had once existed. He felt that "Divine Dragon in the Abyss" was a grand phrase, implying forbearance, restraint, and preparation for unleashing power. He thought the phrase was quite apt, and he appreciated this kind of character—one who accumulates strength gradually and then unleashes it. Sometimes, not being overtly assertive wasn't a bad thing. Whether one possessed great strength or not would be recognized and evaluated by the public. Regarding certain matters, as long as his bottom line wasn't crossed, he could choose not to fight or contend; he was capable of doing so. Sometimes, involvement didn't guarantee success, while non-involvement might be beneficial—this reflected his wisdom and choice. His selection of these two phrases reflected his thoughts and preferences. The remaining phrases were also quite good, but he chose these two anyway. He believed that the original owner of the source would also find these two phrases suitable.

Everyone has their own preferences and pursuits. If they can be well-matched, there may be positive aspects. Believe in the good, aspire to the good, and good things will come.
