"Guess what~"
"Not playing your games, get lost!"
Zhou Yue clenched his fists in anger, grinding his teeth.
Earlier, Zhong Yi had played as Yu Ji and started with four "Borrowing Arrows" cards, completely bamboozling everyone at the table.
He secured five kills in a single round and ended the game.
In Zhong Yi's illusionary world, floating bullet comments drifted across the sky:
[Brother Zhong, you're insane!]
[Stop provoking Brother Zhou—he’ll never draw four Hearts "Borrowing Arrows" in his life.]
[I can’t get "Guess what~" out of my head now.]
[First two doubts were disbelief, last two were pure stubbornness.]
[Another round, hurry up!]
...
The livestream feature was nearly complete.
However, broadcasting permissions weren’t fully open yet—only peak elders, stewards, and true disciples could go live.
Zhong Yi was the most popular among them.
His play-by-play commentary and natural charisma made him a born streamer.
At the moment, he was reviewing the game with Mu Yawen and Zhou Yue.
"Brother Mu, we were on the same team. Why were you frowning the whole time?"
Zhong Yi asked, puzzled.
His win rate as Yu Ji was high because he excelled at reading opponents.
But Mu Yawen was the exception—he believed everything Zhong Yi said.
"I was just thinking... what does this skill 'Gou Huo' even mean?"
Mu Yawen’s brow remained furrowed as he pondered the general’s ability description.
"...That’s Xun Yu."
Zhong Yi wiped sweat from his forehead, correcting him.
Mu Yawen wasn’t much of a reader, but thanks to "Three Kingdoms Kill," he’d started on "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and adored Guan Yu from the novel.
If even Mu Yawen was diving into the source material, it proved how successful "Three Kingdoms Kill" had become in the cultivation world.
The trio was deep in discussion when suddenly, a system announcement flashed across everyone’s illusionary worlds:
[New Version "Myth Reborn" Now Live!]
[Please update your Illusion Crystal and re-enter the realm.]
They quickly exited, channeled spiritual energy into their crystals for the automatic update, and logged back in.
The login screen this time was the most extravagant yet.
A long-haired, divine Zhuge Liang struck his iconic pose, palm raised to the heavens.
A violet thunder dragon coiled behind him, baring its fangs intermittently.
"Damn, this Zhuge Liang looks epic! Is he a new character?"
Zhong Yi’s eyes sparkled with excitement.
This long-haired version was a far cry from the classic feather-fan scholar or the youthful "Sleeping Dragon" variant.
His aura of controlling heaven and earth carried an almost divine presence.
Just then, Mu Yawen and Zhou Yue finished updating and joined Zhong Yi’s party.
"Whoa, this Guan Yu is sick! He looks like an ancient barbarian warlord!"
"Huh? Mine shows Sima Yi... but like, an older version."
"Wait! These must be 'Divine Generals'! Check the roster—there are eight divine cards!"
Zhong Yi was the first to open the general tab and spotted the truth.
Alongside the standard and "Wind-Fire-Forest-Mountain" packs, there was now a standalone [Divine] series.
"No way! It really is Divine Sima Yi! Where do I buy him? The shop?"
Zhou Yue’s excitement skyrocketed.
Over the past week, Sima Yi had been his go-to general, salvaging his gaming experience.
His skill to alter judgment cards had even helped him conquer his fear of [Lightning].
Without even reading the skill details, he rushed to the [Shop], determined to buy Divine Sima Yi at any cost.
But to his surprise, the shop didn’t sell general cards at all.
Only in-game items like "General Selection Cards," "Swap Cards," "Reconnect Tokens," and "Role Cards," plus interactive props like eggs and slippers.
"Strange... where do you buy generals?"
Zhou Yue was about to exit when a pop-up slapped him in the face:
[First Purchase Bundle: Spend 6 spirit stones for 1000 ingots, 1 Recruitment Token, and a permanent general (Xiao Qiao, Yuan Shao, Xu Huang, or Sun Ce—pick one).]
His eyes lit up.
The exchange rate was normally 1:100—6 spirit stones would only get 600 ingots.
This deal gave 1000 ingots plus a general? And all four options were solid!
As for the Recruitment Token, he immediately guessed it was tied to the [Summon] tab next to the shop.
This was an absolute steal!
Without hesitation, Zhou Yue made the purchase.
Just as he was leaving, another pop-up appeared:
[You have an unclaimed Monthly Pass discount. Claim now?]
"Monthly Pass? Discount??"
Zhou Yue was baffled again.
More unfamiliar terms.
Following the prompts, he noticed a [VIP Monthly Pass] in the shop for 3000 ingots.
With the discount, it was only 2400.
The perk? 600 ingots daily, totaling 18,000 over 30 days.
"Break even in four days, pure profit for the next 26?"
Zhou Yue did the math and nearly choked.
What kind of business model was this?
Meanwhile, Zhong Yi had clearly gone through the same ordeal and gasped:
"Holy—did you guys get the First Purchase and Monthly Pass deals?"
"Not yet, but I’m about to," Zhou Yue replied.
"This is way too generous..."
Zhong Yi bought the pass instantly, afraid the discount might vanish.
"Right? Junior Brother Lu is too kind!"
Zhou Yue agreed wholeheartedly.
Everyone knew how wildly popular "Three Kingdoms Kill" was.
Lu Ze could’ve charged exorbitant prices, and people would’ve paid.
Yet here he was, offering insane value for minimal cost?
A true saint!
This was the same template Lu Ze had borrowed from mobile games in his past life.
First-purchase bundles, monthly passes, battle passes...
Simple, effective, and devastatingly addictive.
No one realized they were sliding into a bottomless pit of microtransactions.
Only the blunt and honest Mu Yawen scratched his head in confusion:
"Wait... we’re spending spirit stones but not really getting anything tangible. Why do you two act like you’ve struck gold?"
...
Zhou Yue exited the shop and opened the Summon section.
Two options appeared:
[General Recruitment] and [Treasure Summon].
Naturally, he went straight to [General Recruitment].
The rules unfolded before him:
[Generals are ranked: Yellow, Mystic, Earth, Heaven, Immortal.]
[1 Recruitment Token = 1 random general.]
[Every 10 summons guarantees at least an Earth-tier or higher general.]
[Every 100 summons guarantees an Immortal-tier general.]
[Duplicate generals are dismantled into Hero Souls, which can be used to craft new generals.]
