The developers still haven't forgiven the players.

Manbo, covered in sweat, separated Panghu from the group of teenagers.

He looked at the boy lying on the ground, his face covered in bruises, and his expression darkened.

He knew that Fat Tiger wasn't quite right in the head and often did strange things.

But no one expected that a simple sparring match would turn into such a disrespectful display of martial ethics by Fat Tiger.

He had originally planned to observe Gian's fighting state to determine whether Gian was ruthless.

That's great, we don't need to observe anymore.

Given his fighting style, it's hard to say he's a decent person.

A group of teenagers glared at Fat Tiger, shouting that they wanted to teach him a lesson and told him to come over right away.

The boys, who grew up together, naturally had a good relationship, and they couldn't stand Gian using dirty tricks in a fair and square sparring match.

Fat Tiger, completely oblivious to the fact that he had angered a group of teenagers, calmly looked at Manbai and asked, "Does this mean I've passed?"

However, the more he acted this way, the more enraged these simple-minded teenagers became.

If it weren't for Manbai blocking their way, the boys would have definitely surrounded and beaten up Fatty Tiger.

"Never mind, Manli, you take him to the side first."

Manbo comforted the teenagers in front of him with a pained expression.

Fortunately, the humans in this world are physically strong, so even if they get bruised from being hit by pebbles, the pain will subside after a while.

After Manbo finished telling the story of Fat Tiger's origins, he managed to calm the boys down by playing the victim.

Although the boys were still very unhappy with Gian, they no longer shouted that they wanted to beat him up.

……

Manbo walked to the side and gestured for Fatty Tiger to sit down first.

He has already discovered it.

Gian isn't actually stupid, he just doesn't know how to talk.

With some basic instructions combined with actions, Gian can understand what he means.

Although sometimes the meaning is misunderstood, this also proves that Gian is not as uncontrollable as imagined.

Manbai patted Panghu on the shoulder: "Don't do that again. Be kinder to your own kind."

Fat Tiger looked puzzled: "Dude, what do you want me to do?"

Manbai thought for a moment, then as if he remembered something, he reached out and drew a crooked pattern on the ground.

"Since you don't know your name, I'll call you Manzheng from now on. I hope you will act uprightly in the future and never do anything sinister again."

Fat Tiger stared at the scribbles on the ground, forcibly suppressing the urge to make a sarcastic remark.

"Very good."

"Very good."

Manbai called out several times, but Panghu still didn't react, so he was about to call out again.

Gian, finally unable to bear it any longer, impatiently raised his hand to indicate that he had heard.

Seeing this, Manbo smiled and said, "I'll call you that from now on."

Fat Tiger shifted his body slightly, looking a little uncomfortable.

Manbai's enthusiasm made Panghu, who usually stayed in his rented room playing games all year round, extremely uncomfortable.

The main reason is that the NPCs in this game react so realistically in every way.

Even the most exquisite AI-generated readings and drawings are easily distinguishable.

But when Fat Tiger plays this game, he finds it hard to see the NPCs as just a string of data. If he had to describe them, he would say they are too human-like.

"Logically speaking, I should observe you for a period of time before letting you practice the military techniques of my Qinghe tribe."

Manbai pulled a roll of animal hide from his robes and unfolded it: "But I don't think you're a bad person at heart. I don't think my judgment of people is that bad, am I?"

Fat Tiger couldn't understand, but he could sense the goodwill expressed in Manbo's words.

As for the animal hide that Manbai handed over.

The pop-up notification on the personal interface made Fat Tiger understand what it was.

【Ding! 】

[Player has acquired the Earth-level military skill "Breaking Waves and Collapsing Arms". Would you like to transfer the skill? (Note: Successfully transferring the skill will not lower your game level.)]

Even though Fat Tiger didn't know the difference between the so-called "Breaking Waves and Collapsing" and "Tiger Fiend Skill," he could still distinguish which level of military technique was higher, as they were divided into Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow.

Then what's there to hesitate about?

Fat Tiger grabbed the animal hide and decisively chose to switch to cultivating "Breaking Waves and Collapsing".

Manbo had a smile on his face, it was rare to see Panghu stay calm for so long.

He patiently waited for Gian to express his doubts, after all, in his eyes, Gian couldn't even speak, let alone read.

Not long after, he actually sensed the unique water-based aura emanating from the military manual "Breaking Waves and Collapsing" on Fat Tiger's body.

Manju, who had been idly squatting nearby, was so shocked that his eyes widened and his mouth gaped open as if he wanted to swallow Gian whole: "This is impossible?!"

In such a short time, it would probably be just enough to read the text on the animal skin, right?

Okay, even putting aside the fact that he can read or not, this speed of cultivation is simply exaggerated to an astonishing degree.

There wasn't even a difficult part? You learned it right away?

Even though Manbo had mentally prepared himself for Panghu's exceptional talent, he still couldn't understand why Panghu's comprehension was so outrageous.

Manbo had to rethink his understanding of Fat Tiger. A genius of this caliber was probably something even the Ministry of War couldn't find.

With such extraordinary talent, even if they couldn't understand human speech, the clan would definitely not mind investing in them.

Manli ground his teeth jealously: "This kid's talent is so good that even I'm a little envious."

……

"Um?"

Carrying a large bag of animal hides, Jiang Chen, who was returning to the Xishi tribe, suddenly slowed down.

After sensing the situation for a moment and understanding the cause and effect, he shook his head with a bit of a laugh.

He never expected that his little followers would actually go to other tribes to seek benefits for him.

Essentially, the clay figure is equivalent to his alter ego.

Therefore, he can completely copy the military strategies that the younger players have seen.

We were originally planning to provide players with more advanced military strategies.

He glanced back at the package on his back.

Among the supplies he purchased from the Ministry of War this time, there was actually no high-level military manual like "Breaking Waves and Collapsing".

The rating is: very good.

We really should give more play to the players' initiative.

He pondered for a moment, then edited an announcement and sent it to all players.

[Congratulations to player: Fat Tiger, for obtaining the Earth-level military skill "Breaking Waves and Collapsing," making everyone envious.]

That's enough.

If more rewards are added, it will easily attract players to go out treasure hunting in large numbers, and they will have no interest in leveling up, which would be worse.

At this moment, this message popped up on the personal interface of all online players.

The player community immediately erupted in excitement.

Jiang Chen underestimated the extent to which players crave this kind of cheap sense of honor.

In the eyes of the players, this was practically the first server-wide announcement.

To put it in terms that align with one's worldview—one would wish to take their place.

I'm willing to spend any amount of money.
