"The screen shows the ga they're playing," Luo Chuan explained casually.
Old Bai's eyes widened in disbelief. Could they truly battle monsters in a ga?
Judging by the screens, there was no discernible difference between this virtual world and reality.
"Boss, may I take a closer look?" Old Bai asked.
Luo Chuan nodded in approval.
With permission granted, Old Bai walked over to Bu Lige and the others, observing their gaplay intently.
Once more, the shop returned to its usual calm. But within Old Bai's heart, a storm of astonishnt raged.
The more he watched, the more alard he beca.
He finally understood what Luo Chuan ant by "ga."
At one point, Bu Lige made a critical mistake and was slain by a monster. Yet, in the next instant, he was resurrected unhard and rejoined the battle.
Old Bai's thoughts raced.
If this technology were introduced to the military, soldiers' combat effectiveness would multiply severalfold!
Cultivators could use this to hone their skills without risking injury!
Such artifacts exist in the world?
The implications were staggering. Through repeated battles, one could amass valuable combat experience without endangering oneself.
If anyone else had told Old Bai about such a thing, he would have dismissed it as nonsense. After all, combat experience traditionally ca only through real-world practice.
But now, seeing was believing, and his perspective had been entirely overturned.

"Three hours went by so quickly!"
A voice snapped Old Bai out of his thoughts.
Gu Yunxi and Jiang Wanshang removed their helts, exhaling deeply.
The two shook their heads slightly, dispelling the lingering trance of the imrsive ga.
The Tower of Trials was so realistic it was almost indistinguishable from the real world.
"Who are you?" Gu Yunxi asked, noticing Old Bai behind them.
"Bai Hong," he replied simply.
Recognizing the cloud emblem on their robes, he knew they were students from Soaring Cloud Academy.
"Bai Hong? Are you the expert advisor to the Heavenly Star Emperor—Old Bai?" Jiang Wanshang exclaid in surprise.
"Old Bai?" Gu Yunxi echoed, her face lighting up with astonishnt. She, too, had heard of him.
After introductions were exchanged, Old Bai couldn't help but ask, "You're both students of Soaring Cloud Academy. What brings you here?"
"Wan Chang and I were exploring Nine Stars City when we stumbled upon this shop tucked away in a remote alley," Gu Yunxi replied with a smile. "Curiosity brought us inside, and we discovered that everything here is extraordinary! Visiting Origin Mall has been the highlight of our trip."
Jiang Wanshang nodded in agreent.
The two turned to glance at Luo Chuan.
As expected, his expression remained indifferent, showing no reaction to their words.
By now, they had grown accustod to his deanor.
At that mont, Bu Shiyi, noticing the commotion, exited her ga and removed her helt.
She greeted Old Bai with a respectful nod. "It's good to see you, Mr. Bai."
Old Bai smiled warmly. "Ah, the young lady from the Southern Protector family. The last ti I saw you, you were just a baby. How ti flies—you've grown into such a fine young woman."
