The game is only half finished, and the entire internet is begging for an update!

There are combo attacks too, right?

A state of tranquility and inaction.

A still, ancient well.

One who spends all day practicing Taoism.

One lives in an ancient tomb.

Even the fact that these two people don't usually like to talk to people has a strange sense of compatibility!

When other people form a two-car team, the two people may have to work together, communicate, and study each other's driving habits every day.

These two... Chi Cheng even suspected that if they sat in a training room for half an hour, they might not exchange five words.

But ironically, these kinds of people seem to be quite compatible when they get together!

"Holy crap..."

"That's a good idea!"

Chi Cheng found it increasingly promising. If these two could truly utilize the "Jade Maiden's Pure Heart" technique to create a coordinated double-car attack...

Wouldn't that mean Magic Fairy Castle would then have its own first set of fixed combinations?

At this moment, those shortcomings no longer seemed so glaring in Chi Cheng's eyes. What was this about losing stats during the day, or being socially awkward?

These are all problems that can be solved!

The main problem is that Chi Chengshi no longer has the patience to keep searching. This game has been going on for so long, and he hasn't even had a proper match yet!

If you miss out on someone like that, where will you find another one?

Chi Cheng immediately opened the recruitment interface.

[Recruitment criteria for this candidate driver]

[Required funds: 60000]

[Required Zhongnan Mountain Reputation: 50]

Chi Cheng couldn't help but take a breath when he saw the last two lines.

How cruel!

Sixty thousand in funds!

Plus all the reputation I just acquired!

With this recruitment drive, Magic Fairy Castle is almost back to being penniless.

But Chi Cheng hesitated for only two seconds before pressing down with his hand.

"trick!"

"We absolutely must hire!"

[Is it confirmed that Lin Xia has been recruited as a special candidate driver?]

【confirm!】

[Funds -50000!]

[Reputation in Zhongnan Mountain area -50!]

[Congratulations to the Magic Fairy Castle Racing Team for successfully recruiting driver: Lin Xia!]

[A female driver capable of triggering the "Jade Maiden's Pure Heart" skill has been detected within the team!]

[Target Driver: Qingfeng]

Current compatibility: ???

Upon seeing the last few lines of notifications, the slight pain Chi Cheng felt from losing his funds and reputation vanished instantly.

It works!

Chi Cheng glanced at Lin Xia in front of him again, then thought of his senior brother who was still slowly cultivating in the training ground.

The second official driver from Magic Fairy Castle.

Got it!

And this time...

It seems he really struck gold in the Zhongnan Mountains; my twin stars racing team is now formed!

"Come on! Follow me back to the garage!"

After signing the contract, Chi Cheng waved his hand and turned to walk back.

Lin Xia hesitated for a moment, looking at Chi Cheng's back and then at the sun in the sky, before finally carefully stepping on the bluestone slabs and following him.

However, this person with severe social anxiety maintained a safe distance of more than three meters from Chi Cheng throughout the entire process, and kept trying to hide himself in the shadows of the surrounding trees to avoid the sunlight.

The viewers in the live stream were all frantically taking screenshots of this scene.

[Hahahaha! Cheng Ge's gait and expression are exactly like a heartless contractor who just abducted an innocent young girl!]

[Poor Lin Xia, she fell into the clutches of capitalists as soon as she left the ancient tomb.]

[About the fact that I spent all my savings to bring a socially awkward girl home]

[This girl looks like a fairy! This character model is my type!]

"Hey, you know what, this is my type too. Does this game have any kind of affection system?"

[I can't guarantee a relationship system, but there's definitely a phishing scheme involved!]

Back to the Magic Castle garage.

Chi Cheng immediately opened the [Driver Training Schedule].

Just then, Senior Brother Qingfeng finished his first four-hour training session.

The eldest disciple strolled out of the training ground, his expression calm.

【Ding! 】

[Driver: Qingfeng. Today's training session is now complete.]

[Entry changes: None.]

"It's alright! It's not a big problem!"

Chi Cheng wasn't in a hurry; they'd only been practicing for a few hours.

No entry can be changed so easily. If it were that simple, what would be the point of training drivers? They might as well just reset their skill points at the training ground. As long as it can be changed, it means this path is viable; we can work on it gradually later.

More importantly, he now has two official drivers!

Lin Xia, Qingfeng.

One is a forty-year-old apprentice Taoist priest on Zhongnan Mountain, and the other is a nineteen-year-old girl who has lived near an ancient tomb for a long time and is unwilling to say more than a few words to strangers.

His starting lineup is set!

"Alright, senior brother, let me introduce you to your new teammates."

Qingfeng glanced at Lin Xia, and Lin Xia also looked up at him.

The two stared at each other for about two seconds.

The breeze nodded gently. Lin Xia nodded gently as well.

And then... it's gone.

Chi Cheng stood to the side and waited for a long time, but didn't get a single extra word from him.

But the next second, a prompt suddenly popped up in front of him.

[Qingfeng and Lin Xia completed their first contact.]

[Jade Maiden's Compatibility Rating in Progress...]

[Compatibility: Good]

Chi Cheng: "..."

Okay, okay, so you two don't even need to communicate, right?

While other teams need to eat together, train together, and build rapport, these two just nod to each other when they meet, and the system immediately gives them a "good" rating.

What is this called? Bonds speak for themselves!

Chi Cheng suddenly felt that his 60,000 yuan was even more worthwhile.

And now that we have the people and the car, is there anything else to consider?

Contest!

He's been causing trouble in Zhongnan Mountain for far too long.

"Guys, stop practicing! Let's get straight to real combat! I can't wait another second!"

Since the team was formed, he has been busy recruiting and choosing a location, and he has never actually heard the roar of an engine on the track! Now that he has finally managed to get two people together, if he doesn't go to a race soon, he will almost forget that he is actually playing a racing game.

As a racing game player, who can tolerate this?!

Chi Cheng immediately opened the regional tournament interface and found the most recent tournaments he could participate in.

[Regional Event: Ancient Trail Race]

[Participation Requirements: Teams at or above Class F.]

Chi Cheng immediately made a selection, and then found a suitable type within the sub-category of this competition.

[Event Type: Two-Car Team Race]

[Match Time: 2 PM today.]

[Competition Rules: Each team will field two cars simultaneously. Team points will be awarded based on the final rankings of the two drivers.]

[Event Rewards: Funds, regional reputation, vehicle modification materials.]

Sign up!

"Position One, Qingfeng! Position Two, Lin Xia!"

[Ding! Registration successful!]

Please select your driver and corresponding vehicle!

Chi Cheng quickly dragged the two avatars into the starting lineup.

However, when he was about to assign vehicles, an embarrassing thing happened.

In the Magic Castle garage, there is currently only one beginner car that has undergone basic training.

Lin Xia can't exactly run to the competition, can she?

"Buy! We can't skimp on education, no matter how poor we are; we can't let drivers suffer, no matter how tough life gets!"

Chi Cheng opened the system shop, his eyes lingering on the dazzling array of high-end racing cars, before finally glancing painfully at his meager remaining funds.

"Ahem... Well, Xia, you've just joined the team and haven't gotten used to the wildness of modern technology yet. I'm afraid you won't be able to handle a car that's going too fast."

Chi Cheng talked nonsense with a straight face, and then spent the cheapest price to buy Lin Xia a basic racing car with a small size and balanced attributes.

The price wasn't outrageous, but for Magic Fairy Castle, which had just emptied most of its savings on Lin Xia, it was painful enough.

Vehicle purchase successful!

Current available funds: 3176

Chi Cheng stared at the last remaining balance and remained silent for two seconds.

This racing is indeed an extremely expensive sport! No wonder it hasn't become widespread!
