Chapter 58

After not practicing for long, Wang Chen heard a hurried knock on the door!

Hearing the knock, he frowned slightly, knowing without a doubt that it must be Xiang Qiankan!

Usually, he would come over every few days when he had nothing to do, peddling his so-called information. Today, if he had made it into the top hundred of the Star Chart as expected, Xiang Qiankan would definitely know and come over. It would be strange if he didn't.

Moreover, within the Star Sect, it seemed that no one else besides Xiang Qiankan would come to his place.

Opening the door with a bitter smile, sure enough, the plump figure greeted his eyes.

"Wow, brother, this time you've made it big, you know? You still have the mood to practice here? Damn, do you know how crazy it is outside now!" Entering Wang Chen's room, Xiang Qiankan shouted loudly.

"What's going on!" Pouting, Wang Chen asked gloomily, wondering what could make everyone outside go crazy.

"Damn, you really don't know? Bastard, you don't even take your own achievements seriously? Do you know you made it into the top hundred of the Star Chart today? At ninety-sixth place, with 156 points, you've become the ninth person in the history of the Star Sect to break into the Star Chart in the first month as a newcomer, do you know that!" Seeing Wang Chen still indifferent, Xiang Qiankan went crazy.

His face was flushed with excitement, and he grabbed Wang Chen's hands tightly, shouting loudly, as if afraid Wang Chen wouldn't hear.

In his anxious state, his whole body of fat trembled, making it look incredibly funny.

"Ninety-sixth place? I know!" Rolling his eyes, Wang Chen shrugged off Xiang Qiankan's hands and replied helplessly.

Seeing Xiang Qiankan's eager-to-pounce look, Wang Chen felt a chill. Could this fat guy have a thing for him?

"My God, are you even human? You're not even excited about this? Only nine people in history have done this, just nine! Bastard, do you know what this means? If you keep this up for two more days, you'll be recorded in history, becoming someone others worship. Oh my God, you insensitive guy, do you know how crazy the outer sect is now? Everyone is talking about you!

Do you know that the inner sect has already heard this news, and the whole sect is in an uproar? I bet you have a good chance of being selected into the inner sect in the year-end selection if you keep this up!

Do you know that everyone is talking about you, saying you got six Star Pearls in the three days of hell today and broke into the top hundred?

Can't these things make you excited at all!"

Standing in front of Wang Chen, Xiang Qiankan spoke excitedly, waving his arms and legs, as if he were the one receiving the honor, making Wang Chen both cry and laugh.

"Year-end selection!" However, Wang Chen finally caught a bit of interest. Does the inner sect also hold a year-end selection?

"Hehe, of course! The top ten of the Star Chart and two people recommended by the outer sect elders, a total of twelve people, have the资格 to participate in the year-end selection and enter the inner sect early. How about that, not bad, right!" Saying this, Xiang Qiankan grinned slyly: "This information is free for you!"

Rolling his eyes, Wang Chen was speechless about this guy. Indeed, the name Xiang Qiankan suited him, always looking forward to money! This name was truly artistic.

Ignoring Wang Chen's expression, Xiang Qiankan's eyes darted around, his eyes flashing with cunning, his smile growing wider, and he finally burst out laughing.

"Ha ha ha, no wonder I chose you, hehe, not bad. Considering your promising future, I'll give you a fifty percent discount on information from now on, unprecedented, good enough for a friend, right? From now on, we're brothers, yes, real brothers! Ha ha, do you need anything now? Like the information on all the top hundred people in the Star Chart?" Patting Wang Chen's shoulder, Xiang Qiankan asked warmly, acting like a brother.

"No!" Pouting, Wang Chen replied helplessly. This guy really took advantage of the situation, suddenly becoming brothers with him and still charging. He had to admire such a person, who could find a way to make money in any situation. He really had to pray for his family, wondering if they would charge him before answering any questions.

"Alright then, I'm busy, find me if you need anything! I'll protect you! Yes, I'm off, I have big business to do. Your information will fetch a good price today! Hehe, from tomorrow on, your life won't be so peaceful. Take good care, I hope you can maintain your current ranking by the end of the month!" With that, Xiang Qiankan gave Wang Chen a sly smile, and his plump figure darted out into the night, disappearing into the darkness, his speed surprising Wang Chen.

This guy was definitely going to make a fortune today! Now that he had broken into the Star Chart, many people would buy his information. This was Xiang Qiankan's most profitable time, no wonder he was so excited and left in such a hurry.

"Looks like tomorrow will be lively!" Thinking about it, he felt a headache. Now that many people were targeting him, and with Xiang Qiankan's betrayal, he would really become everyone's target!

Not caring too much, Wang Chen wasn't as excited as he imagined about entering the Star Chart. For him, entering this list was just the beginning, not the end. He aimed to break into the top fifty, top thirty, top twenty, and even the top ten! The road ahead was long, and the enemies ahead were stronger. Now was not the time to celebrate.

That night, the Star Sect was in an uproar. That night, the Star Chart was bustling with activity. That night, Wang Chen's once unknown name spread throughout the entire sect, making everyone familiar with him. A new star was rising. Of course, some people were destined to make a fortune.

A night of cultivation fully restored Wang Chen's spirit and true essence. As the sky began to lighten, he set out on his cultivation journey again!

Walking through the square, he clearly felt many people's gazes. In the past, when he passed by, no one paid attention. Now, everyone looked at him with strange eyes.

There was envy, jealousy, and even sinister looks! Seeing this, Wang Chen smiled bitterly. It seemed he had really become a celebrity, which was not a good thing, at least not for him now.

Knowing his Seventh Stage Body Tempering strength, many people must have already targeted him. On his way, Wang Chen noticed six or seven figures following him, clearly planning to attack him as soon as he left the sect.

These people were not weak, and he even spotted a True Martial level expert. This made Wang Chen very worried.

All of this was definitely Xiang Qiankan's doing, selling his information to everyone.

Feeling a chill, Wang Chen knew he was in trouble if these people targeted him. Thinking about it, he hurriedly sped up, dashing forward and quickly entering a dense forest in the Yin Wind Valley. After about ten minutes of running, he finally shook off these people.

As expected, the whole day of battles was as difficult as Wang Chen had anticipated. As soon as he appeared, he would attract many people's attacks, as if he were a piece of fat meat, ready to be carved up!

Each appearance leading to an attack forced Wang Chen to flee, avoiding those powerful pursuers. This day was destined to be the most painful for Wang Chen!

In this constant fleeing, Wang Chen only managed to snatch four Star Pearls with Ling Zhan's help, which left him extremely dissatisfied.

More importantly, without Ling Zhan's help, he might not have gotten any, and perhaps all the Star Pearls he had would have been taken away!

Thinking about this, Wang Chen felt embarrassed and helpless. Fame was really not a good thing. The saying "People fear fame, pigs fear fat" was so true. Wang Chen really wanted to hug the person who created this saying and pour out his heart. It was truly a profound insight, and he had found a kindred spirit!
