"So that's what happened next. Each guild has a team background, and sometimes members of those teams even come to the guild under assumed identities to fight bosses. Huang Shaotian from the Blue Rain team is quite the chatterbox; he can still type at a high intensity while fighting a boss."
Just then, a man walked into the office; it was Gray Snake.
He first looked around, then walked silently behind the raven and deliberately coughed loudly, startling the raven who was reading the text, making its feathers fly up.
"Editor-in-Chief, what brings you here?"
"Nothing much, just checking in on the work." Gray Snake noticed the open document on Raven's computer. "Hmm? Whose novel is this? I see it's a chapter from 'The King's Avatar'? I don't think I've seen this content before?"
P.S.: A new month has begun! Due to popular demand, an extra chapter will be added for every 50 gifts! A free gift from each reader will help speed up the author's progress!
Chapter 107 The Hottest New Book
Raven quickly said, "This is the 100,000-word chapter that Qianjian just sent over. It will be combined with the previous 200,000 words and released as a physical book later."
"Hmm? The latest chapter is here?" Gray Serpent's voice was devoid of any emotion. "Okay, send all these chapters to my email first, I need to review them."
Raven nodded repeatedly upon hearing this, and Gray Snake then walked away contentedly with his hands behind his back.
After Gray Snake left, the other editors in the office surrounded Raven, wearing ingratiating smiles.
"Editor-in-chief, could you please review ours too?"
Raven snorted: "Why do we need so many people to review 100,000 words?"
Seeing everyone's awkward smiles, Raven chuckled.
"Alright, the document will be sent to the group later, you can take it yourselves."
A burst of cheers erupted from the crowd: "Yay! Raven is the best!"
At that moment, in the fantasy department next door, Jackal heard cheers coming from the other side of the wall and immediately frowned.
"What are these guys doing? It's so noisy!"
She had heard before that Raven's online game team had launched a new event.
However, she didn't pay much attention at the time. After all, the overall market for online game novels was just like that, with not many new authors writing them, and even if new activities were launched, they wouldn't attract many people.
However, her thoughts vanished the moment she saw "The King's Avatar". She had originally intended to watch it with a critical eye, but she ended up watching it all night without realizing it, and by the time she came to her senses, it was almost time to go to work.
Jackal was completely dumbfounded; he had actually spent the whole night reading online game novels!
She used to be unable to finish reading online game novels in an hour.
The subsequent surge in data for "The King's Avatar" surprised Jackal even more. In just half a month, "The King's Avatar" had already made it onto the monthly recommendation list and the monthly click list. With the support of the two lists and the event, the number of subscribers continued to increase dramatically.
Currently, it not only holds the top spot in online game literature activities, but also shows a trend of breaking into the top ten of the monthly click rankings.
The jackal was dumbfounded; this was a new book with only 200,000 words in total!
The books on other people's bestseller lists either have over 500,000 or 600,000 views, or they are new books by famous authors that come with their own built-in audience.
This author, Qianjian, is a new writer!
She had suspected that Qianjian was an alternate account of a certain popular author, but popular authors of online game novels all have their own new books, so how could they have time to start a new one like this?
For a new author and a new book to achieve such results is simply unbelievable.
It seems Raven really struck gold, managing to discover such a talented new author.
With this book in existence, as long as it remains unfinished, Jackal will no longer need to worry about her KPIs.
Of course, that's not what Jackal is most concerned about. What she's most concerned about right now is what happens next in this novel!
Ever since she stayed up all night reading it, her mind has been filled with thoughts of the subsequent chapters.
However, I'm too embarrassed to ask the ravens for it now, so I can only hold back.
It's incredibly frustrating to see the next chapters right next door but not be able to read them.
Bai Qianqu was also very excited after turning off her phone.
He originally thought his first book wouldn't be able to be published in physical form, but he didn't expect happiness to come so quickly.
Bai Qianqu's insistence on physical books stems primarily from the different revenue-sharing models between online novels and physical books.
Although online novels spread quickly, the revenue sharing is not much, generally between 30% and 50%, and there are even various hidden levels and stages, which makes readers' heads spin.
Physical books are much simpler; you get paid for each book you sell, and he can make a 70% profit on a single book. It's all about simplicity and efficiency.
Bai Qianqu just likes things to be simple and straightforward!
Overjoyed, he wrote another 20,000 words.
However, he has been quite busy this month. He hasn't recorded "My Sky" yet, but Bai Qianqu isn't in a hurry. He has been looking for a singer for the past few days, but he hasn't found a suitable candidate yet.
However, Bronya also said she would help her find a suitable candidate, and she believes it won't be long before she asks Wendy to make a cameo appearance if necessary.
As for the new singer competition, it will be held in the middle of the month. As Ying's composer, although he doesn't need to appear on stage, he still decided to go and watch. After all, it will be Ying's first time on such a big stage, which is very memorable.
The most important thing now is to get both songs done, since we agreed to release them together on the 5th, and there are only a few days left.
Thinking of this, Bai Qianqu glanced at the time; it was exactly five o'clock.
"Yay, time to go home. I'll leave tomorrow's work for tomorrow!"
He then shut down his computer and went downstairs.
However, he was caught red-handed by Bronya as soon as he got downstairs.
"I knew you'd run off at the appointed time, so I've been waiting for you here all along!"
Bai Qianqu retorted confidently, "Why wouldn't I leave after get off work?"
"Have you finished recording your song?" Bronya pouted. "You're releasing it on the 5th, so you only have three days left."
"We haven't found a suitable singer yet, have we?" Bai Qianqu said somewhat embarrassedly.
"You don't like any of the many singers in the company? If you just beckoned, they would flock to you." Bronya glanced at Bai Qianqu sideways.
Bai Qianqu was speechless: "The way you're saying that makes it sound like I'm seducing someone."
Bronya covered her mouth and laughed: "There's no difference. Now you're more attractive to the company's singers than beautiful women."
Bai Qianqu was speechless, after all, what Bronya said was indeed the truth.
Now, wherever he goes, he gets stared at by many singers, their gazes even more intense than when they look at a beautiful woman.
If Bronya hadn't previously warned singers not to bother Bai Qianqu, he probably wouldn't have dared to come to the company now.
As for not selecting any singers from the anti-entropy group, the main reason was that no final decision had been made. He did have several candidates, but they were all quite similar and each had their own unique characteristics, making it difficult for Bai Qianqu to make a choice.
Seeing Bai Qianqu's worried expression, Bronya decided to stop teasing him.
"Alright, stop frowning. I happen to be free today, so let me take you to get something good to eat. I can also introduce you to a decent rapper while I'm at it."
"What do you want to eat?" Bai Qianqu asked, puzzled. "Who's a good candidate?"
"Barbecue! As for who will be there—you'll find out when we get there!"
Soon, Bronya brought Bai Qianqu to the north of Changkong City and parked the car in front of a mountain that resembled a tourist attraction.
Seeing Bai Qianqu staring at the mountain gate, Bronya said, "This is Mount Taixu, the location of the Taixu Martial Arts School. Don't look up there; it's not open at night."
"We're going to the square next door. There's a barbecue place called Taixu Barbecue there. The owner's grilled quail eggs are delicious."
Chapter 108 Taixu Roasted Bird Eggs
Soon, Bai Qianqu followed Bronya along the road to a square.
Upon arriving at the square, Bai Qianqu's eyes lit up.
The spacious square was bustling with people, and there were many vendors selling milk tea, ring toss games, candied hawthorns, and balloons.
Everything is available.
This place resembles a small market.
"Taixu Market is a very famous place, and many people like to come here to stroll around at night."
Bronya pulled Bai Qianqu straight to a corner of the square: "Over here at the barbecue stalls!"
All I could see was a small cart with a sign that read: Taixu Roasted Bird Eggs!
Below is a line of smaller print: Fresh Taixu Mountain bird eggs! Giving you a unique and divine experience!
When Bai Qianqu's gaze shifted from the signboard to the owner, he was startled.
The boss was wearing protective goggles and holding a chainsaw in both hands. Opposite her, a silly-looking little girl was holding an egg the size of four fists on her head.
The little girl's face turned green, and she said in a trembling voice, "Second Grandmaster, please take it easy, I'm scared—"
"Don't worry!" The boss wiped his nose and pointed at himself, saying, "I'm a grandmaster, after all. I can go toe-to-toe with anyone. Don't worry! As long as you don't move, I guarantee you'll be fine!"
After saying that, the boss brandished the chainsaw and swept it across the bird eggs on the little girl's head, laughing exaggeratedly as he did so.
"Hahahaha! I will sweep across all realms! Tsk, Su Chang, don't squat down! I missed!"
Li Sushang stood up again with a mournful face.
The audience members nearby were not afraid at all; instead, they applauded enthusiastically.
"The boss is mighty!"
“The boss is awesome!”
"I drove over a thousand kilometers just to see the legendary chainsaw splitting bird eggs! Seeing such an acrobatic performance made the trip worthwhile!"
"I've heard that the Divine Bird of the Void can only be found on Mount Taixu. It was raised by Grandmaster Fu Hua, the current head of the Taixu Martial Arts Academy! It absorbs the essence of heaven and earth and is extremely rare!"
"No wonder it's the egg of the Divine Bird of the Void! I heard it takes a chainsaw to open it!"
"Of course! A single bird egg is worth ten thousand! I've heard that eating it nourishes yin and yang! Especially for men, it can restore their virility! It's ten thousand times better than deer antler or ram's penis!"
"Really?! I thought 10,000 was too expensive! If it really has this effect, 10,000 is a bargain!"
"Boss, I want an egg!"
"I want it too! I want it too!"
Bai Qianqu was dumbfounded by the sight before her.
What the hell is this?! A chainsaw splitting bird eggs open, and what the hell is with that effect?!
Zundu and fake toot?
I think I'm starting to feel something for you?
