Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

There is another reason, which is the description of the Jedi Master's expertise: the speed of practicing the Force is increased by 35%, and the progress of teaching Force apprentices is increased by 35%, which means that the profession of Force apprentice may be mass-produced.

Zhou Ning organized his thoughts and began to slowly explain the method of practicing the "Laws of Force Cultivation". As he possessed the expertise of a Jedi Master, Zhou Ning had a very thorough understanding of the Laws of Force Cultivation. At the same time, the progress of teaching Force apprentices increased by 35%. When he slowly explained the story, the two of them soon froze in place and fell into a state of shock.

Richie Burke and Ignatius Woods were initially indifferent, thinking that it might just be a formality, but when Zhou Ning began to patiently teach him skills, the profound principles of Force cultivation and the in-depth and easy-to-understand guidance immediately attracted them. They listened with fascination and only regretted that they did not have a small notebook to write down every word Zhou Ning said.

If they had a game panel like Zhou Ning, a message like this might appear: "Wayne Stewell has provided you with guidance. You have gained some insights, and your proficiency in the principles of Force cultivation has increased."

After explaining for about twenty minutes, Zhou Ning's panel finally gave a prompt:

[Through your guidance, Ignatius Woods has learned the principles of Force cultivation (elementary).]

[Through your guidance, Richie Burke has learned the principles of Force cultivation (elementary).]

[Rich Burke has acquired a new main occupation: Force Apprentice (lv1).]

[You have achieved the Bronze Milestone: Teacher I.]

[Teacher I: Teach skills to 1 NPC.]

This was an unexpected gain, and the effect was that the progress of teaching NPC skills increased by 15%, which was not very useful to me.

However, what made Zhou Ning happy was that his experiment was successful, but it was only half successful. Only Richie Burke successfully changed his job and became an apprentice of the Force.

Although Ignatius Woods was a little disappointed that he failed to change his job, he didn't care much about it. After all, his main occupation was still a craftsman.

Zhou Ning narrowed his eyes as he glanced at the delighted Rich Burke. This would only make Rich Burke even more valuable. He was a promising talent, sure to create significant value. Besides himself and his clones, he was also a respectable high-level NPC. As long as he worked hard, he would naturally treat him well.

.........

Time passed quickly.

The professional league continued in full swing, and players' enthusiasm for watching and consuming games remained high. Since his experience had been reduced to zero, Zhou Ning went all out and harvested the leeks to his heart's content.

Besides selling items and guiding two NPCs in the cultivation of the Force, he also sent two clones to the Sea Kingdom of Revendreth and the Republic of Byron, harvesting the leeks of other novice villages. He currently had a significant gap in experience. His current plan was to gain more experience in Nathaniel, accumulate enough trump cards, and then head to the Motley Islands and the Little Broken Book for a decisive battle with Karl Robbins.

As for the two tasks of tracking down Archbishop Edward, Zhou Ning didn't know the specific process and had no clues for the time being. Archbishop Edward seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth, and there was no trace of him at all. The progress of the task was always stuck at the initial 3.7% and did not move.

Searching alone would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. For now, all I could do was wait patiently. Nathaniel had over two million players, so if he showed up, he'd definitely show up. All I had to do now was wait patiently and continue building my foundation. Thanks to the professional league, more and more players were coming to Nathaniel lately, keeping sales high for all my merchandise. I was also gaining a lot of experience.

He also watched a few games in his spare time, mainly watching the games of several of his important players. As the game day progressed, the qualifying situation became clearer.

Zhou Ning reviewed the leaderboards. Several seeded players and teams had qualified, with Xingyue starting strong but ending weak. Due to the tournament organizing committee banning the Phoenix uniform, Xingyue's tactical system had been somewhat disrupted. In the match Zhou Ning watched, they lost to the Deep Blue Club at a significant disadvantage. Jinse performed exceptionally well, overcoming a two-player deficit to defeat Xingyue, securing their spot two rounds early and earning a significant fan base. Xingyue subsequently defeated the Canadian Cougars Club, but lost to their old rival, Candy Super Sweet. Xingyue was a master of foreign competition, but not at domestic competition.

In short, among all the clubs in CN, and indeed around the world, the ones with the best chances of qualifying were generally those with the Roaming Gunner class. The only club in CN that lagged behind was the Tang Poetry and Song Ci Club. Although Yan Wuye qualified in the individual competition by placing eighth in his group, his club finished third from the bottom, facing elimination. Consequently, they were ridiculed and labeled the "designated weaklings."

Master Yan Wu was very depressed, but there was no Wandering Gunner in the club, and he was the only one with the Devil Fruit ability, so he could only silently endure the overwhelming ridicule.

Zhou Ning calculated with his fingers and realized that they still didn't spend enough money.

In the past life, when I didn't exist, Tang Poetry and Song Ci actually performed quite well. The steel lineup of three warriors, one priest and one weather was their original creation. But now, although Master Yan Wu is very powerful, the overall lineup is too cumbersome, and it is almost difficult to win when encountering multiple long-range enemies.

In the individual competition, it was the world of the Roaming Gunners. The four Roaming Gunners who participated in the competition all advanced in advance. Among them, Shuidi Chenxing even scored 4-7. Jinse easily defeated Zi Arthur, but lost to Shuidi Chenxing in the civil war. There was no other reason, the Phoenix suit was just too powerful.

In Zhou Ning's opinion, although Shuidi Shenxing mainly relies on equipment, he is actually quite talented. His operation is getting better day by day. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be guaranteed to be in the top two.

The other two roaming gunners, Heat Wave and Super Blue Cat, have also secured their qualification with a score of 6-1, which has caused an uproar among players around the world.

The topic that has been discussed to death on the domestic forums has been brought up again in the World Championship and also in foreign forums:

Is the Roaming Gunner too strong?

That evening, in the workshop, Zhou Ning set down his hammer and breathed a sigh of relief. After several days of hard work, he had crafted a dozen lightsabers using his ceremonial crafting skills, and his experience had successfully upgraded his crafting skills to the intermediate level. Each one cost about 440 Vecta, and he kept one for himself and two NPCs. The rest were placed in his personal shop at 8800 Vecta each, a reasonable price that would sell quickly.

Beside him, there were a huge number of boxes stacked up. In the past few days, the ghost army had been working almost non-stop to produce various supplies and pack them. As a result, the various boxes filled up an entire warehouse.

He will use these boxes to exchange for supplies, and sell small quantities.

If all these things could be sold or exchanged for supplies, Zhou Ning felt that he should be able to wipe out Silver Superman and Black Goku in one go.

Considering that he had been busy these days and had no time to do anything else, Zhou Ning, who had finally had some free time, was just about to open the simulator to play a game, but he suddenly saw someone in the guild chat teasing XB, saying that he had appeared in the new Apocalypse Preview.

"Wait, is the fifth issue of 'Apocalypse Forecast' out?"

Zhou Ning couldn't help but cheer up.
