After Tang Muzhou left, Xie Mingzhe continued depicting cards and 11 [w.a.n.g Zhaojun]s were made. One of them was made so that it could be upgraded as well as to be put on exhibit, and the other ten would be sold with [Lin Daiyu], [Xue Baochai] and [Xi Shi] in the store tomorrow.

It was already 9pm when he finished depicting all the cards. Xie Mingzhe then texted Chen Xiao, "Brother Chen, have you finished checking all the materials?"

"Yes, I've put them into different categories. How about your research of new cards?"

"All done. You guys should come over." Xie Mingzhe convened a meeting with some of his partners in the work s.p.a.ce.

Pang Yu and Jin Yue stood in front of the display cabinet, obsessed by the beauties that Xie Mingzhe had depicted. Chi Qing didn't say anything but checked the data of the new cards carefully. Chen Xiao had brought the Water and Metal attribute upgrade materials directly to Xie Mingzhe's place so that he could upgrade two cards to the highest level.

After upgrading [Xi Shi] and [w.a.n.g Zhaojun] to the highest level, Xie Mingzhe placed the two cards in the card showcase on the first floor. And then he put 40 level-1 initial cards in the display cabinet on the second floor. With the help of his partners, Xie Mingzhe marked the prices on these cards and went offline.

Creating cards consumed a substantial amount of Inner Spirit. After continuously making so many cards, Xie Mingzhe suffered from a terrible headache when he returned to his dormitory. Lying on the bed, he tried not to think about cards because his brain needed to get enough rest.

He was so tired that he fell asleep soon and didn't wake up till daybreak.

The next morning, he went online with his partners when 月半 Card Store was closed, which means other players couldn't enter the store during that period of time. Xie Mingzhe would open his store on time at 11:30am. He decided to farm instances with Brother Chen as well as other partners and finish all daily tasks when there were still three hours before opening the store.

It was right before the opening time when they finished farming instances. As a group, they then went to their store located on the business street and entered as managers.

Xie Mingzhe turned on the "network traffic unlimited" mode.

At 11:30am on the dot, 月半 Card Store opened right on schedule and the store was bursting with customers the moment it opened.

Xie Mingzhe could see clearly from the session log that his store had replicated a dozen instances in order to accommodate more customers.

The more surprising thing was that customers piled into the store just to sprint for the second floor madly. They paid for every card that was available at that time without hesitation. It seems that they were scared to lose the chance of getting these cards.

40 level-1 initial cards in the display cabinet on the second floor were sold out in less than half a minute.

The managers of the store, Xie Mingzhe and the other four partners, were staying in the managing s.p.a.ce where they could see the real-time synchronized store data. Seeing 40 cards disappear instantly, Pang Yu rubbed his eyes and felt it was so unreal, "We've only opened the store for half a minute and all the cards have been sold out?"

Jin Yue said in wonder, "I guess that all the clubs were waiting at the entrance before we opened the store in order to buy the cards. There must be a lot of people who didn't get the chance to buy the cards yet."

Xie Mingzhe looked at the 400,0000 gold coins that they had earned today, smiling, "Close the store in half an hour. I'll go back to my place and depict more cards to sell tomorrow."

Xie Mingzhe wrote a notice on the store's announcement board, "All cards have been sold out today. Thanks for your support. We will open the store on time at 11:30am tomorrow and new cards will be released . Stay tuned!"

All the club managers, "……"

Why would we get excited about this disaster? Do you want to wreck all the clubs?

Club leaders who had managed to buy the new cards quickly went straight to their legends, while leaders who didn't get any card beat their b.r.e.a.s.t.s, furious as well as upset.

…

At the same time, on the first floor of 月半 Card Store.

Ye Zhu used his smurf account to enter the game. Lurking in the crowd, he pushed his way to the front of the card exhibition cabinet.

Even though the cards on the second floor were sold out, the exhibition area of the first floor was still open.

Four cards were put abreast in the card exhibition cabinet and all of them were beauty cards.

'Daiyu Burying the Flowers' was aimed at flowers and 'Baochai Chasing b.u.t.terflies' was aimed at b.u.t.terflies. Ye Zhu had previously already seen the two aforementioned cards. He had gloated over Legend Tang's misfortune when he was targeted by the beauty card. Then suddenly he had become a victim of the second beauty card……

Brother Pei was right. There would be other victims apart from him, so Ye Zhu looked at these two new cards that were released today, enjoying other people's imminent misfortune.

[Xi Shi], additional skill: Sinking Fish. Fish die instantly.

Having seen that, Ye Zhu couldn't stop laughing inside. Fish was a broad category within the Water cards. Players with the Water attribute in Flowing Frost City had Fish cards more or less. Pangpang completely trod on Flowing Frost City's toes this time! That's hilarious, HAHAHA!

Then he saw the next card. [w.a.n.g Zhaojun], additional skill: Farewell to My Country, playing the Chinese lute to shoot down flying objects with sound waves. Birds die instantly.

Ye Zhu widened his eyes all of a sudden——this card will obviously harm Brother Lan!

He was considering whether to tell Brother Lan the bad news when he turned his head and saw a grey-haired old man standing right on the other side of this card, whose ID was 9877521. If he remembered correctly, that ID was Shan Lan's smurf account. It was unexpected that Shan Lan would come to this card store in person!

Ye Zhu approached him immediately, using the voice PM, "Brother Lan, is that you?"

Then the familiar mild voice answered, "Yes, it's me. Did you come here to go along for the ride too?"

Ye Zhu chuckled, "I just wanted to know who would be the next victim. However, I didn't expect that……that……"

Shan Lan's voice was filled with helplessness, "Didn't expect it's me, did you?"

Ye Zhu complained, "I have to say that the card creator is a demon. I mean, how could he conceive the idea of shooting down flying objects with the sound of the Chinese lute?"

Shan Lan suffered from a headache. Since his Shifu had said, "Relax, he definitely won't aim at you", with a certain expression on his face yesterday, Shan Lan had been feeling uneasy. Now the bad premonition had come true—— 月半 released [w.a.n.g Zhaojun], a new card that was aimed at birds.

"Shifu is such a doomsayer," he smiled bitterly.

Ye Zhu's smurf account and Shan Lan stood in front of the card exhibition cabinet, looking at [Xue Baochai] that was aimed at b.u.t.terflies as well as [w.a.n.g Zhaojun] that was aimed at birds. These two fellow sufferers cried inside, yet they became tearless outside.

Nevertheless, Shan Lan adjusted his mentality rapidly. He said, with a smile, "That's okay. Besides us, there are still many other players that are targets."

Ye Zhu cheered up too, "Exactly! We have Legend Tang with plant cards and some unfortunate guys with Water cards with us!"
