Chapter 223: Chapter 223: Inquiry to the Great God Chapter 223: Chapter 223: Inquiry to the Great God Tomato: “Then a big thank you to the boss for your care! I’ll go negotiate the contract now, and I should be able to send it off in the mail this afternoon!”
Mist: “Sure thing, hey, can you let take a look at your stored drafts first? I want to see if the later plot is stable.”
The chief editor wanting to see the stored drafts was certainly no problem at all. Wang Hao imdiately sent over the subsequent chapters.
Soon—
Mist: “Haha, very well written! I knew I wasn’t wrong about you! Thing is, it’s Monday today, and there was this book on a small recomndation spot where the author told they were not pleased with the performance and didn’t want to write anymore. After you mail in the contract, just update three chapters to reach a total of twenty thousand words, and I’ll switch the recomndation spot to see how it goes!”
Tomato: “Really?! Then I’m off to sign the contract right now!”
The process of signing the contract was familiar to him, and Wang Hao didn’t have any particular demands—it was all about signing first and discussing later!
Signing the contract, then going out to print and courier it, he ran all the way back, and it had already been an hour.
Tomato: “Boss, I’ve sent the contract, hehe!”
Mist: “Nicely done! Upload three more chapters, and I’ll swap out the recomndation spot for you! Keep it up! Beg for votes like your life depends on it! I reckon this year it’s only you who can compete with Battle Breakers!”
Tomato: “Okay! No problem!”

Author Group—
Wind-Confined Alley: “Holy shit, look quick, sci-fi genre’s hot pick!!”
Peace in Hug: “What’s the big surprise? What’s with the quick pick?”
Deep City Maze, I’m Going Back to the Countryside: “What’s going on, what happened?”
Wind-Confined Alley: “That ‘chanical Martial’ was taken down and replaced with a new book, only twenty thousand words, called ‘Devouring the Stars’!”
Peace in Hug: “I know ‘chanical Martial’, that book got two favorites overnight after being recomnded, then it went eunuch. Change it then, can’t be squatting without doing the deed, right?”
Wind-Confined Alley: “I’m not talking about that! I’m saying the setting of ‘Devouring the Stars’ is freaking aweso, damn!”
Little Monster: “What are you discussing? Which book has an aweso setting?”
Peace in Hug: “Sci-fi’s hot pick, called ‘Devouring the Stars,’ just swapped in. Holy shit, I just realized, the book ID is super cool too, 1700000, not any worse than Battle Breakers!”
Little Monster: “For real? I’ll check it out!”
Ten minutes later.
Little Monster: “Damn, this book is the real deal of awesoness?! The setting is way too fricking cool! I’ve always thought Battle Breakers was rigged, but ‘Devouring the Stars’ has so genuine strength! I an, I’m gonna tip it 588 as a gesture, gotta support the good books!”
Deep City Maze, I’m Going Back to the Countryside: “I’ve checked it out too, and the setting is indeed great. But to say this book is stronger than Battle Breakers now might be premature, huh?”
Little Monster: “I’m not saying it’s definitely stronger than Battle Breakers, but it definitely has the power to fight!”
…
On QQ.
Mist: “Holy shit, your book is aweso! Just got recomnded, and in just one hour, it’s gained over 40 favorites! Over 30 recomndations! These stats are almost catching up to the major recomndations! Hahaha! I knew my judgnt was correct!”
Tomato: “It’s all thanks to the care from boss Mist; otherwise, it wouldn’t be this fierce! When we have the chance to et, I’ll definitely treat you to so big health care!”
Mist: “Haha, that’s a promise we can look forward to, no rush. Just make sure your book has steady updates, maybe even a burst occasionally. It’s already the end of August. Just focus on increasing the word count, leave the recomndation stuff to ! Aim to hit the shelves by October 1, and by then, you should be able to compete with Battle Breakers!”
…
anwhile, at the editorial departnt of Fengyun Chinese Network.
Long Ya, the chief editor of the second group, was discussing with his number one god, who is also currently the top god of Fengyun Chinese Network, regarding the release date of the new book.
Long Ya: “How’s the new book coming along?”
Supre God: “I’ve got a hundred thousand words stored up, I think there should be no problem.”
Long Ya: “Yeah, let’s get ready to launch the book. The timing you’ve chosen is really good. It’s lucky you didn’t clash with that monster from ‘Battle Through the Heavens.’ Just look at Xiao Cangtian; he hasn’t written a book since his showdown with ‘Battle Through the Heavens.’ His divine status is shattered.”
Wen Song: “Indeed, that monster is too fierce. Total collections of 140,000, so impressive.”
Long Ya: “I reckon that when he goes premium, his first subscription must break 10,000. It’s the first for our website in so many years, hehe.”
Wen Song: “I feel like my new book should do reasonably well. If I launch it now, I should be able to go premium by October 1st, right?”
Long Ya: “Absolutely, with your brand, a bit more than a month’s ti is more than enough to keep the popularity going. Have you decided on the title? You don’t want to end up like Xiao Cangtian, who wanted to snatch the title from ‘Battle Through the Heavens’ and ended up in his current state.”
Wen Song: “Don’t worry, the title is ‘Heavenly Martial Heroes,’ and I’ve checked – it’s still available.”
Long Ya: “Then that settles it. Let’s launch the book; I’ll pass it through review for you.”
Wen Song: “Alright.”
Soon, Long Ya opened the review for Wen Song, and then, at the most conspicuous spot on the website, he specifically set up a prominent news recomndation spot for Wen Song’s new book—
“Fantasy Chinese Network’s top deity Wen Song launches his new book ‘Heavenly Martial Heroes’ with a bang!”
After sending out this news recomndation, Editor-in-Chief Long Ya stretched comfortably and said, “Wen Song’s new book is really sothing to look forward to, hehe.”
“Long Ya, let’s go eat!” Ju Zi, a beautiful editor from the departnt, ca over with a smile, “Join us!”
“Sure, let’s go together!” Long Ya got up.
The two went to the cafeteria and saw Chief Editor Wen Song and several others gathered in a circle. Long Ya got his food and joined the group, starting to chat.
Long Ya asked with a smile after taking a bite of his food, “Wen Song, how is ‘Battle Through the Heavens’ doing now?”
Hearing Long Ya bringing up ‘Battle Through the Heavens,’ Wen Song felt very proud, “Over 140,000 collections now, with more than 100 rewards per day. The results are astounding.”
Ju Zi sighed beside them, “You two are really lucky. Long Ya has ‘Supre God’ under his wing, and Wen Song, you’ve got a new deity erging. When will I ever have soone I can boast about, sigh…”
chanical Martial laughed and said, “This is all about luck; there’s nothing we can do about it. By the way, Long Ya, I rember Wen Song’s old book is going to be completed in these few days, right? When is the new book scheduled to launch?”
“It’s already launched,” Long Ya replied. “I just opened it for him. The new book is called ‘Heavenly Martial Heroes’ and the big red headline news has already been sent out.”
“Ah?!” chanical Martial was imdiately taken aback. “It’s launching already?”
“Yeah,” Long Ya still clearly unaware of what was happening, said, “We figured it’s better to go premium earlier. If it’s launched today, there are about five weeks of promotion before going premium, enough ti with Wen Song’s popularity. It will hit premium right on October 1st.”
chanical Martial: “…”
Hearing Long Ya say this, chanical Martial instantly felt bumd out.
‘Devouring the Stars’ was also set to go premium on October 1st! Was he about to debut just to clash with ‘Supre God’ Wen Song? What’s the point in competing then!
The al tasted bland, and chanical Martial quickly ate a few bites before hurrying back to his seat to ssage Love Eating Tomatoes—
chanical Martial: “Damn, this is a big problem!”
Love Eating Tomatoes: “What happened? Why are you so shocked, boss?”
chanical Martial: “‘Supre God’ Wen Song has launched his new book, also going premium on October 1st. Your competition is too strong, I don’t have high hopes. But don’t worry, I’ll make sure you get good recomndations. Just, the fight for the top spot in the monthly ticket might be out of reach.”
Love Eating Tomatoes: “Ah, that? No worries, just leave it to fate. I don’t have high expectations, hehe.”
chanical Martial: “Glad you can see it that way. I just found out during lunch. Keep it up.”
Love Eating Tomatoes: “Yeah, don’t worry, everything will definitely be fine!”
…
