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

"How is it?" a woman with a slightly husky voice asked.

Lu Chen smacked his lips twice: "Not bad? It's just a bit unrealistic. Being hit and thrown that far and not dying, then finding out you have leukemia just because you have a nosebleed, is a bit exaggerated."

"That's a bit of an exaggeration, so I won't recommend Mu... um, I'll recommend someone else." The voice on the other end sounded a little regretful: "Otherwise, someone will say I have bad taste again."

"Yeah, your taste in movies is definitely a bit lacking. You actually want to recommend such a melodramatic, ridiculous show to others." Lu Chen silently scoffed, of course, without saying aloud, "How about I recommend one instead?"

After hesitating for a moment, the person on the other end declined, saying, "Never mind, my vacation ends tomorrow, and I have work the day after tomorrow."

"Oh, then when you're not busy." Lu Chen was a little disappointed. It wasn't that he was disappointed that they couldn't watch a movie together, but mainly because he could only get one reward from different people a day at most, and it wasn't even midnight yet, so it was a bit of a waste.

"What are you planning to do later?" the voice on the other end asked.

"Me? My friend said he wanted to play Glory with me, and now a new server has opened." Lu Chen glanced at Ye Xiu, who was leisurely browsing forum guides next to him.

"Oh?" The other person showed some interest: "I can teach you sometime, I'm pretty good at Glory."

Lu Chen glanced at his hand speed, which had increased twice, his hand coordination, and his maximum gaming talent: "Hmph, who knows who will carry whom in the end."

"Hehe, I'm leaving." The person on the other end didn't say anything more and simply left the theater.

In another city, at the Misty Rain Club, in the captain's dormitory, Chu Yunxiu stretched and subconsciously reached for the cigarette pack on the table.

When he had some free time, he drew back the curtains to check that the convenience store was still open. He picked up his keys, but hesitated for a moment, remembering what his movie-watching buddy, whom he had never met before, had told him to smoke less. After a moment's hesitation, he casually tossed the keys onto the table.

Smoking less is better for your health, and it's about time to quit.

Go to bed early...

Xingxin Internet Cafe

Lu Chen took off his headphones, looked around, and saw that Ye Xiu had already finished the soup from his instant noodles, letting out a satisfied burp. Seeing Lu Chen looking at him, Ye Xiu didn't say he wouldn't eat and then awkwardly finished the soup, but instead chuckled and asked, "Finished watching?"

"I've finished watching it. It's pretty abstract." Lu Chen shrugged and glanced at Chen Guo, who was engaged in a fierce battle in the arena on the other side. "Brother Ye, you've been playing Glory for ten years, huh?"

"Today marks the tenth anniversary, what a coincidence." Ye Xiu's face showed these sentiments.

"Then why does Brother Ye need to play on a secondary account? I heard from Sister Chen that there's some kind of 'domain' where you can play with friends, right?"

"I gave away my old account because of some things." Ye Xiu smiled. "Perfect, I'm planning to start over anyway, so it's fine since I gave it away."

"You'd be reluctant to part with it, wouldn't you?" Lu Chen thought for a moment, "If it were an account I'd played for ten years, I definitely wouldn't be willing to give it away."

Ye Xiu didn't answer, but just smiled and shook his head, continuing to look at the strategy guide in front of him.

Lu Chen didn't care about anything. After thinking for a moment, he opened the forum and started learning.

There are a total of twenty-four professions in Glory, each with different equipment and gear setups, and their skills also differ accordingly, which made Lu Chen a little troubled.

"Don't worry too much. You can change jobs at level 20. Before that, all your skills are the same, so you can choose the one you like to try out." Ye Xiu smiled as he glanced at Lu Chen, who was clearly struggling with choosing a job.

"Let's talk about it later." Lu Chen nodded, stretched, and suddenly noticed something Ye Xiu had casually placed beside him. He asked curiously, "Hmm? What's this?"

Lu Chen pointed to the little gadget next to Ye Xiu's hand, which looked like... a handheld whack-a-mole machine? It looked quite unique.

"It's a whack-a-mole machine, for relaxing your fingers. It's been tweaked a bit. Want to play?" Ye Xiu asked with a smile, his hands a little cold from before, so he took it out to warm his fingers up slightly. "And let's see how fast your hands are."

"I'll give it a try." Lu Chen became interested, after all, he had just received a speed-boosting buff from his partner, and he wanted to see what his current level was like: "Shall we just start?"

Lu Chen asked casually and then pressed the start button.

"Wait..." Ye Xiu wanted to stop him. The current gear was the one he usually used for maintenance training, which was a bit fast for a beginner... It had already started, and yes, it was quite fast.

Ye Xiu was somewhat helpless; at this speed, it would probably be over in a moment...

However, Ye Xiu's eyes widened slightly as Lu Chen's fingers flew across the whack-a-mole machine, leaving afterimages. He even had time to chat with Ye Xiu: "What class did you play before, Brother Ye?"

"Battle Mage..." Ye Xiu paused for a moment before speaking, "That..."

You, you need to concentrate a little.

"Oh, I know that profession. Sister Chen Guo's favorite players are Ye Qiu and Su Mucheng from the opposing Excellent Era club. Wait, Brother Ye, you're not also from Excellent Era, are you?" Lu Chen paused for a moment, turned his head to look at Ye Xiu, and his fingers still didn't stop.

"I really am Ye Qiu." Ye Xiu sighed, no longer wanting to explain. "Never mind..."

"Hiss? Does that mean the account card you gave away, Brother Ye, was that... whatever... Battle God One Autumn Leaf?" Lu Chen said in utter shock, his finger slightly moving away, and the machine flashed red: "Oh, you lost."

This time it was Ye Xiu's turn to be silent. He glanced at the time and the score. At that frequency, there was still time to chat, which was obviously not the peak. But if you estimate based on this hand speed, it was already at the level of Liu Xiaobie, the hand speed master of Tiny Herb last year. Moreover, it was Liu Xiaobie's peak level.

This Xiao Lu... his hand speed is quite impressive, especially considering that he coordinates both hands very well.

After a moment of silence, Ye Xiu asked with a smile, "You... you just believe I'm Ye Qiu?"

"Huh? You're kidding me?" Lu Chen scratched his head.

"No, it's just that I feel like Boss Chen's reaction is the kind of normal reaction. Um, I didn't mean anything by it, it's just..." Ye Xiu scratched his head and said somewhat awkwardly.

"Hey, it's nothing. I know, I just felt that Brother Ye wouldn't have any reason to lie to me." Lu Chen smiled.

Ye Xiu felt inexplicably moved. Just as he was about to say something, a voice around him said that it was about to start, and then everyone in the internet cafe started the countdown together.

Lu Chen and Ye Xiu exchanged a glance, inserted their account cards into the card reader, and waited quietly for the server to open.
