The Great Thief Chapter 766: Honored Guest

Chapter 766: Honored Guest

Translator: Halcyon Translations Editor: Halcyon Translations

It was actually a bit far-fetched to call it an event.

Lu Li had been invited to be a guest at the competition by The League Association.

Many players would accept such invitations, especially the top players who had been listed as celebrities. They would sit at the table together with the comntators to provide so technical explanation for what was happening.

On one hand, it could expand their popularity and influence, but on the other hand, they needed to be entertaining.

In addition to an appearance fee, the reason why players were attracted to these events was because they could obtain EXP.

To avoid suspicion, the ga companies normally did not participate in organizing professional leagues. This was all done by the league associations.

However, that was not to say that the ga company did not care.

Under the rules of the ga, the creation of the arena and the EXP awarded for players attending were all things that belonged to the company.

EXP was a sacred and inviolable thing. If the ga company stripped a player of EXP, this would inevitably be t with resistance.

Otherwise, the ga company could make money by taking bribes and only allowing those who paid to advance. What would be fair about a ga like that? Dawn naturally wouldn’t make this mistake.

Instead, the EXP was distributed by the audience.

If the audience recognized the guest, they could also send gift packages that they received after entering the auditorium.

Because there was a limited quantity, it was up to the player whether they wanted to award it. This system was favored by the players and had been welcod by everyone.

As a result, most players wouldn’t refuse this invitation.

There were half-a-dozen comntators in the gaming circle, including Gale Legion’s Wendelian, Wings of Dawn’s Elevenless, Peerless City’s Green Flag Wine and Majin Temple’s Unforgettable Maple.

This was the first ti that Lu Li had received a comntary invitation, and he didn’t want to refuse the EXP.

The ga that he was invited to wasn’t a random one either – it was between Peerless City, who had been ranked 9th, and Purple Lunar Paradise, who had been ranked 12th.

Peerless City was currently one of the most powerful guilds.

Purple Lunar Paradise was also quite formidable with their star players Dark Destroyer and Lone Smoker. Dark Destroyer was a Berserker, whose strength was almost comparable to Moonlight’s. Lone Smoker was very adept at his profession and had even beat Moonlight in the Individual round of the Shadow Cup.

In the Magic Cup, Purple Lunar Paradise had defeated Ruling Sword, but Lu Li hadn’t played in that match.

To most of the players, Purple Lunar Paradise and Peerless City were evenly matched in strength. Although most were optimistic about Peerless City, no one thought that Purple Lunar Paradise didn’t have a chance.

When Lu Li was transported into the arena, he was imdiately placed onto the stage.

The other comntator that was present was the veteran Dark Wind. He had been comntating for nearly a decade and had an esteed reputation.

His partner for today was Pure White Season, who was also responsible for comntating the match between Ruling Sword and Floating Cloud.

If the comntators were Dark Wind and Pure White Season, and the invited guest was Lu Li, it was clear that the league association valued this match.

Hundreds of thousands of seats were filled instantly.

As the match had not yet begun, it was impossible for everyone to just sit in silence. The comntary team and guests would usually start talking beforehand.

"I am very glad that Lu Li has accepted the invitation to be the guest of this competition," Pure White Season said. It was clear that she was a fan of Ruling Sword and Lu Li was also an object of her admiration.

"This is the first ti I’ve been in a position like this. If I make a mistake, please forgive ," Lu Li said in a cold voice.

Lu Li then saw that he had already begun receiving gifts on the monitor.

These gifts could be directly converted into EXP. There weren’t many points individually, but together, they could reach quite an impressive level. Lu Li had already gained a sizable sum in the first few seconds after opening his mouth.

He previously calculated that if a ga had over 100,000 spectators, there would be at least 100,000 gifts in their hands.

These gifts could only be sent to him, but the players could decide if they wanted to send them or not.

In this world, who wouldn’t want to be liked by everyone?

Dawn had millions of players in China; there were many who liked Lu Li and many who hated him.

However, among the 100,000 players in audience, the individuals who hated him were probably in lower attendance. There might have even been so fans who deliberately bought tickets to the match after hearing that Lu Li would be the guest.

If 100,000 players sent their gifts, this would be enough to increase his current EXP by 10%. Even if he tried to farm so monsters, he wouldn’t be able to achieve that in day.

"What does Lu Li think about these two guilds?" Dark Wind asked.

He had witnessed the rise of Ruling Sword in the arena of the Shadow Cup and had comntated several of those gas. From their first match, he had been curious about Lu Li.

"They are both very strong," Lu Li answered vaguely. He was naturally a bit uncomfortable at the beginning.

Ruling Sword had fought both guilds before, but the results were wildly different. They had fought in two matches against Peerless City where Ruling Sword won, and had also fought in two matches against Purple Lunar Paradise, but had won one and lost one. If that was taken as an indication, Purple Lunar Paradise was stronger.

"If you were an ordinary player, which guild would you like to be part of?" Pure White Season asked, trying to test Lu Li in a subtle way.

"I would probably like to join Purple Lunar Paradise..." Lu Li couldn’t give a vague answer for that question.

"Why is that?" Both comntators were curious.

"I hear that Purple Lunar Paradise’ Mini ow is very beautiful," Lu Li said suddenly.

Mini ow was Purple Lunar Paradise’ Professional Druid player. Although she wasn’t as strong as Innocent Child, she had excellent technique and was ranked 10th on the beauty rankings.

Moreover, she was still young and could beco more attractive as she grew older.

In fact, these were the words taught to him by Square Root 3. He had beco more concerned about Lu Li’s appearance then Lu Li himself. He knew that Lu Li’s arrogance and lack of education would cause him to say so dumb things.

Even if you were just an expert, it didn’t matter what you did, as everyone would just think it was part of your personality.

However, if you represented a guild, this beca important. Lu Li had the potential of throwing away all of Ruling Sword’s efforts.

"Haha, that’s a good response," Dark Wind laughed, feeling that Lu Li was quite a friendly guy. Every male who heard that response would have at least smiled.

"I think..." Pure White Season began, then paused before saying coldly, "A man shouldn’t be so fickle."
