Time is like a wild donkey; once it starts running, it never stops!

A month has passed in the blink of an eye.

This time, Chaoxi Games really kept its word. At exactly noon, the download button for World's End: Dust changed from gray to blue!

At this moment, many veteran players looked at the time and even felt a little uncomfortable.

In the past, when I would follow a new game every day, I would guess when it would be released, when it would be updated, and when it would be patched up. It was basically up to fate.

Now it's all over! We've finally made it through!

"Holy crap, it's right on time!"

"No delays! Great product!"

"It's too punctual. This kind of punctuality from Chaoxi Games fills me with a deep sense of dread..."

"Don't be too quick to be moved! Their on-time login only proves they've learned to read a calendar; whether the game is complete or not is another matter entirely!"

"That's right!"

"I have only one wish now: since time is so complete, I hope the game can be complete too."

Similar discussions almost instantly flooded the DeepBlue platform.

……

Meanwhile, the Yinlang live streaming platform,

Chi Cheng's live stream room was also packed with people at this moment.

However, unlike his usual live streams while sitting in front of the computer, today Chi Cheng was completely immersed in a virtual game pod.

As a game streamer who's doing fairly well, he certainly has that much skill.

Others might buy a basic virtual reality headset just to participate in the Ghost Challenge.

Chi Cheng is different.

He bought this gaming pod last year during an e-commerce platform's annual promotion, gritting his teeth and buying it for himself. He rarely uses it, but today, for "World's End: Dust," it finally came in handy again.

Moreover, the game pod is already connected to the live streaming backend, so as long as he agrees, the audience can directly see the first-person perspective.

"Brothers, can you hear me?"

Chi Cheng's excited, slightly trembling voice came from inside the virtual pod.

The comments section started scrolling instantly.

[I can hear you! Cheng Ge's equipment is awesome, it's a pity the price has dropped now! I told you, you should have bought a used one!]

[Exactly! Cheng-ge, take good care of yourself. I also have requirements for virtual accounts!]

[Rich guy clinging to a big shot! This virtual reality game experience must be incredibly awesome!]

[Cheng-ge, stay calm! This is a native virtual reality game. Don't get carsick and throw up in the cabin later; that equipment is incredibly expensive!]

Chi Cheng took a deep breath in the virtual reality pod to calm his excited heartbeat.

Motion sickness? Not a chance!

"Gentlemen."

"Let's leave it at that for today."

"I am destined to become a man who transcends all!"

After saying that, he felt quite confident and raised his hand to enter the game.

next second.

Suddenly, the view went dark.

The first sound I heard was a low, rumbling engine noise.

Immediately afterwards, race cars roared past from the darkness.

Rally cars kicked up mud, Formula One cars sped along the ground, SUVs leaped down sand dunes, heavy trucks rushed through puddles, and even a mini car the size of a palm sped under a huge dining table.

The engine noise grew louder and louder.

The background music gradually grew louder.

On both sides of the screen, photos and honors began to flash rapidly.

【…】

Chi Cheng initially watched it quite attentively.

The more he looked, the more his expression seemed off.

"Wait a minute. What's this? What are you showing off to me for!"

He thought he would get into the race car after the opening animation ended, but the next second, all the images suddenly disappeared.

A white light appeared.

Chi Cheng found himself sitting in a... classroom.

That's right! It's a classroom.

Rows of desks.

The walls on both sides are covered with photos of racing cars, championship trophies, and group photos of outstanding graduates from previous years, and there is a huge electronic blackboard in front of it.

On the stage stood a middle-aged man in his fifties, wearing a racing jacket.

The man stood with his hands behind his back, looking down with a satisfied expression. Chi Cheng looked down at himself.

Tables, pens, tablets... and even ridiculously thick textbooks.

The cover prominently displays the words: [Fundamentals of Professional Racing Team Management and Driver Development]

Chi Cheng: "?"

The viewers in the live chat were stunned.

【No, where's my car?】

[You promised a racing game, but you sent me a driving school instead?]

[I'm planning to race my car at midnight, and you're making me have class at midnight?]

The host just said he wanted to become a man who would leave everyone in the dust, but now it looks like he wants to become an outstanding graduate.

Jiang Bo: Everyone, sit down and start learning.

Just as Chi Cheng and all the netizens were completely bewildered, the coach on the podium had already raised his head.

The classroom, which had been somewhat lively, gradually quieted down.

The background music also changed at this point.

Just a moment ago, it was filled with the roar of engines, but now it feels more like a graduation ceremony.

The coach glanced at everyone and smiled.

Congratulations everyone.

"From today onwards, you have graduated."

Chi Cheng blinked. Good news! He didn't have to go back to class!

The coach paused for a moment, then continued.

"After studying at school for so long, you've already learned a wide variety of knowledge."

The coach didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, and continued to walk with his hands behind his back, his voice growing stronger.

"Racing knowledge, team operations, driver psychology, race rules, term selection, world exploration..."

"It even includes how to keep the team alive until the end of the month when the season budget is insufficient."

The coach on the podium slowly walked to the electronic blackboard.

Behind them, the scene changed, and a huge galaxy map appeared. Then, on the world map, locations began to light up one by one.

City parking lots, Hulushan Mountain, Zhongnan Mountain, the underground world... countless races, cities, tracks, clubs, and unknown areas are densely covered on it.

"From today onwards, you are no longer students."

"You will become true professional racing team coaches."

"You can join an existing team or start your own club. You can look for established drivers in the professional racing scene, or you can go to places where nobody pays attention and find your own genius."

"You have a lot to do next."

"Establish a racing team, run a club, participate in races, and train drivers."

"Perhaps one day, you will find your team's world championship in an ordinary person whom everyone looks down on."

"From this moment on, the academy will no longer decide where you go or arrange your next match."

"You can choose what to do next."

"Go cultivate! Go search! Go explore! Go manage!"

The words fell.

A new interface suddenly popped up in front of Chi Cheng.

Congratulations on your graduation!

Please make your choice!

Immediately afterwards, two huge options appeared before Chi Cheng, one on the left and one on the right.

Join an existing team
