The King's Avatar: Become Stronger After Being Rejected, Don't Agree!

aaa Street Wanderer Xiao Lu: [What are you watching today?]

Movie-watching buddy: [Sorry, I can't do it these past two days.]

AAA Street Wanderer Xiao Lu: [Oh, okay, no problem, just let me know whenever you want to watch!]

Movie-watching companion: [Okay, thank you.]

[A rejection value was detected; the host will be rewarded with mastery of image editing skills.]

Having completed his daily routine of being rejected by his movie-watching buddies, Lu Chen nodded in satisfaction. He hadn't quite figured out how he'd be rejected tomorrow.

What's with this "proficient in photo editing skills" thing? Are the rewards I get from my movie-watching buddies getting more and more abstract these days?

Lu Chen glanced at the reward, somewhat speechless, but didn't dwell on it too much.

Glory! Start!

[Ding! Welcome back. Let's raise a glass to the moon.]

Baozi Invasion: [Brother's back? Come on, let's level up!]

An invitation to join the team had already been sent to him, and Lu Chen accepted it without hesitation. However, he was soon taken aback: [Huh? They changed members?]

Baozi Invasion: [Oh, they said they had something to do, so they're not fighting today. What a bunch of spineless bastards!]

Lu Chen smiled: [You can't say that. You don't call 24/7, do you?]

Baozi Invasion: [Almost there, I've only slept two or three hours these past two days.]

Lu Chen was startled: "Wait, aren't you afraid of suddenly dying?"

Baozi Invasion: [Oh, I'll play a little longer and then go back to sleep. I took a nap this afternoon too. It's okay, I'm still very healthy.]

Raising a glass to the moon: [...]

Lu Chen was a little hesitant to play with Baozi anymore; this guy was a bit scary.

But hearing Baozi's spirited voice, Lu Chen felt a little relieved; it seemed that everything was alright.

"It's already started?" Ye Xiu, sitting next to Lu Chen, glanced at Lu Chen's screen and asked with a smile.

"Hmm, Baozi is a very interesting person." Lu Chen smiled, and Baozi's cheerful laughter reached his ears, although... it was quite unpleasant.

Ye Xiu glanced at the scoundrel on the screen, smiled, said nothing, plugged a card reader into the computer, and began to help organize the system training materials he had found for Tang Rou.

As for helping Lu Chen look for one too...

After considering it, Ye Xiu gave up. He could see from the game during the day that Xiao Chen's Gunner playstyle was already very mature and his approach was definitely correct. He could slowly rise up and solidify his foundation, and he would definitely become an outstanding professional player, the kind that even the top-tier players might not be able to beat.

All I need to do is offer some pointers when he goes astray, and there won't be any problems.

Perhaps… Ye Xiu glanced at the twin pistols in the hands of the woman who had just raised her cup to invite the moon, his expression subtle. He shook his head and continued to work on the Battle Mage's strategy.

Time flies, and amidst Baozi's singing, a faint light shone from the body of Jubei Yaoyue.

I've leveled up; I'm now level 20.

"We can leave the starting village now!" Baozi exclaimed excitedly. "Come on, let's go! I'll show you a wider world!"

"Wait a minute, I'm going to change my job first." Lu Chen chuckled.

"What's Xiao Chen planning to switch to? Sharpshooter, Mechanic, Gunner, Ammunition Expert—I'm good at all of them!" Su Muqiu's figure flashed over from Ye Xiu's side, his eyes shining as he asked, "How about Gunner? You're already pretty good at Gunner. Slowly build up your foundation, and once you reach max level, you'll be a professional player without any problem. Play more competitive matches, and you can easily climb to the top tier. After that, I'll give you all my help, and we can get a title—wouldn't that be awesome?"

"I refuse," Lu Chen said with a smile.

[A rejection value was detected. The host is rewarded with intermediate programming skills.]

Get it.

However... this time it wasn't a refusal for the sake of refusing; Lu Chen had actually experienced being a gunner in the morning.

Well... it's a bit too clumsy. Of course, this might also be because I've been shooting at too many agile sharpshooters lately.

Having found a dedicated mentor, Lu Chen didn't hesitate too much and immediately chose to switch to the sharpshooter class. Then he followed the cheerful Baozi outside.

"I'll show you around the wilderness first, and then after midnight I'll take you to the Burial Grounds. I've already done all my attempts at the Burial Grounds dungeon, hahaha." Baozi strode around, his emotions easily influencing those around him.

"Then wasn't my dungeon attempt for today wasted?" Lu Chen asked, amused.

"Huh? It really is... Oh dear, what should we do? Wait a minute, let me think of something. Don't panic..." Baozi started to worry.

Lu Chen listened to Baozi's dilemma with a smile. Something was placed next to him, and Lu Chen looked up at it with some confusion.

"I have to go to work now. I'll give this to your girlfriend later." Ye Xiu smiled and pointed to the card reader next to him.

"Okay, sure."

"What little girlfriend?" Baozi stopped talking and asked curiously.

"Uh, it's nothing... By the way, where were we?" Lu Chen smiled and changed the subject, asking with a smile.

"Oh, this afternoon..."

"We can't fight for too long." A beautiful hand placed a black cup next to Lu Chen's hand. The cup contained green tea and was still steaming.

Lu Chen was startled, then looked up again. Tang Rou was smiling at him, holding a glass that looked exactly like the black one beside him. Tang Rou tapped his forehead: "Drink less carbonated drinks and more green tea. Try this and see if you like it. If you don't, I'll buy some other things from home later... cough cough, I'll buy some others."

"Oh, okay." Lu Chen nodded blankly, holding the black water glass, then looked at Tang Rou's: "This... is it a couple's set?"

"Ahem, what did you buy when Guoguo dragged me shopping after you fell asleep this morning? Didn't you like it?" Tang Rou seemed a little nervous.

"No, no, no, it's very beautiful... I, I really like it, thank you, Sister Xiaorou," Lu Chen said quickly.

Lu Chen had never experienced this feeling before, but it warmed his heart.

"That's good... Oh, is this what Ye Xiu said he had organized?" Tang Rou's face seemed a little red as she quickly asked.

"Oh, right, Brother Ye said this is a battle mage learning guide he compiled..." Lu Chen nodded. He noticed that... ever since they confirmed their relationship, Tang Rou seemed to have become much more charming?

This is absolutely outrageous!

"Hmm? What couple's items?!" Baozi asked curiously.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. By the way, where were we?" Lu Chen quickly changed the subject.

"Oh, oh, oh, I was just talking about how some kid tried to steal my monster, and I kicked him with a flying kick..." Baozi started rambling on again.

Lu Chen breathed a slight sigh of relief, but couldn't help stealing a glance at Tang Rou, who was intently studying the strategy guide.

My own girlfriend, that's so great...

"Holy crap! What luck! Is that a wild boss?!" a teammate shouted excitedly.

"Blood Gunner Ago!"

[Xiao Chen! Stop staring at your girlfriend! Big deal!]
