Even though it had been almost 100 chapters already, Brother Jue’s status had not changed much. Mainly it was because he was already at a very high level and thus most of his ability had started to plateau out to stability. Take marksmanship and dic, these two masteries as an example… unless Brother Jue found suitable related skill in the future, or else even if he wanted to train them, it would be quite difficult. Normal shooting and using the potions would not improve the mastery points. But this did not an that he would not have any space to improve in the future. In the ga of Thriller Paradise, every 10 level would welco a new beginning. If you think reaching the maximum level was the ending, then you would be sorely mistaken. Currently no one knew that after you reached the maximum level limit… there would be a ‘wider world’ waiting for the players.

Feng Bujue, Level 43
“Please select the ga mode that your team wants to join.
“You have selected the Killing Ga (1 Versus 1), please confirm.
“Confirming, adjusting nervous connectivity, generating the scenario…
“Please wait for a mont. Downloading.”
When the system announcent began, Brother Jue had lost control over his body. White light gathered before his eyes before everything subrged into darkness again. This ti, the loading was rather long. Just as Brother Jue was confused about what was happening, an additional system reminder rang out:
“Special reminder: In the new version, the setting of Terror Points has been removed from 1 versus 1 Killing Ga. But said setting still remain in the other format of Killing Gas. This reminder will only show up once, please visit the official website to enquire for more information regarding this. Happy gaming.”
Feng Bujue was not surprised when he saw this row of sentence appear because he had already known about this. This detail was not shown in the introductory page of the patch note of version 1.10 but you would be able to read about it if you press to read for more details. And Brother Jue… was exactly the kind who would go and read through the details of each of the clause one by one.
“Make your opponents cower in fear, have them understand the true aning of terror!” A tender female voice recited the opening of this scenario.
“Download completed. You are currently in the Killing Ga mode.
“This mode cos with introductory CG and the chance to unlock side/hidden quest and special world-building.
“Reward for victory: 3000 Skill Points.”
[Hmm… so it only gives this kind of reward now, huh…] Feng Bujue looked at the window that popped up before him and thought to himself. [I thought it would at least give a puzzle card but the winning prize is just so Ga Coins…] But Brother Jue was prepared for this kind of developnt because he had already predicted that… the dilution of the winning prize for 1 versus 1 Killing Ga was bound to happen eventually.
…
To understand this, one had to go back to the start of May. Back then, already so players had started to complain on the forum that the 1 versus 1 mode was getting harder and harder to play. And the reason behind this was… at the end of April, soone wrote a post on the forum called ‘1 versus 1 is the best thod to farm your level’. From then on, many players flushed into 1 vs 1 killing ga to farm, most of them were not expert players, they just copied the guide that was posted by soone else, which was to focus train on their workmanship and marksmanship and then find and compile a set of equipnt that was solely ant for solo duel and purchase many unique exhaustible. When all these preparation was done, they only needed to focus on that one mode and queue it again and again…
Naturally the vibrancy of the mode would drop to the bare minimum. In this situation where the technical difference between the players was not high, using this tactic could indeed increase one’s chance of winning by a lot. Therefore during this period… the 1 vs 1 Killing Ga mode in Thriller Paradise because truly a farming paradise for these idle gars or rather farrs. This made the gaming experience for casual players extrely bad because once they queued for 1 vs 1 killing ga, there was a very high chance they would face these farrs. A normal gar faced against the threat of specific skill and items ant for 1 vs 1 duel, often they had no chance of even fighting back. To win these farrs, either they had to waste everything they had and they could not allow themselves to make even one small mistake and they still needed more than a little bit of luck. But for the farrs… everyone else was for the picking, they just followed the guide and reaped the reward. Even if they lost, it did not matter… they would just queue up for the next round.
Many people were chased away by this phenonon and stopped queueing for 1 vs 1 mode. The remaining players either continued to wither in this environnt or join the dark side… eventually, the farrs in 1 vs 1 mode beca more and more nurous…
A large virtual reality online ga should theoretically had a very good 1 versus 1 pk experience but sohow it had been turned into Farmville…
Since May was the month for Tournant of the Best, the discussion regarding this phenonon was washed away by the bigger topics on forum, but… that did not an that Dream Inc. did not hear these voices. The proof was… in this new update, the victory reward for 1 vs 1 mode was sliced into nothing; even the reward from Terror Points had been taken away. You still want to continue to farm? Sure, after all even if you win now, the little bit of reward that you got might not even be enough to replenish the exhaustible that you have lost. And the loser might even gained more Skill Points than you did.
With this new patch, in just 2 days, the environnt for 1 vs 1 killing ga beca much better. Now those who still played this mode mostly used it to train their mastery and skill points; the situation where both parties agreed to drag the ga out to earn as much reward as they could had completely disappeared; both sides of the party would get the reward corresponding to their effort in the duel.
A wave of praise followed this update to the mode, of course… there were also criticism. This naturally ca from those farrs who used the guide to rush to level 30. After losing their main thod of level training, they soon realized… their other gaming ability other than workmanship and shooting were basically useless. When they joined a team scenario, they would beco a baggage and looked down by others. But… that was their own punishnt. To quote Woody, “this kind of idle farming can be easily solved, you just need to focus on their ‘motive’ and ‘capital’ and make so adjustnts and these problem will go away, but people who ‘could not see their mistake’ and ‘refuse to see the long run’ are impossible to solve, now is no longer the era where I can easily cut people into pieces and flush them down the toilet.”
…
“Introductory CG is going to begin soon. The ga will start imdiately after the CG is over.”
After reading the reminder, the introduction subtitle started to appear. He could hear… a very deep and powerful male voice reading out the subtitle that followed.
“Night, cold night, a cold cold night.
“People, two people, silent two people.
“Under the moon, before the field of flowers, a captivating scenery…
“But this place was about to be turned into a place of murder.”
At this mont, the scenery brightened around Feng Bujue. He instantly realized… he was standing on the top of a rather large ancient Chinese building, to be more precise, he was standing on the ridge of the roof.
“His eyes appear to be able to see through everything in the world.
“Her blade appears to be able to cut through everything in the world.
“under this moon, only these two people remain.
“In this space between heaven and earth, it also feels like only these two people are the ones that remain.”
