I still owe one more Alliance Master reward, which I'll pay off tomorrow or the day after.

Next month, March, I plan to make a slight push for the monthly ticket rankings, so I'm letting everyone know in advance.

In March, I promise to write more than 250,000 words, and I'm asking everyone to save their guaranteed monthly tickets and such in advance. As for the extra update rules, forget it, because that's my limit. I can't write any more than that, and it's impossible for me to pad the word count just to release more chapters; it's not worth it.

Currently, each chapter is 3,000 words, with a guaranteed two chapters. I will try to avoid unreasonable cliffhangers, so I often write 3,400 or even 3,600 words, which means that as long as there are extra updates, it's basically like writing 10,000 words a day. 250,000 words is equivalent to more than 8,000 words a day, which is quite a lot for books near the top of the rankings. Of course, I will try to write even more on top of that word count.

If nothing unexpected happens, this may be the only time this book will try for the rankings. Because it's already over a million words long, although there's still a lot of planned content—at least enough to write five million words—the further I go, the more time I need to sort out the outline and think of different plots from before. It's impossible to have the same burst of inspiration as when I first started writing, so the speed will definitely slow down a bit.

The average subscription for this book is currently over 42,000, and I don't want to ruin the book by trying to rush for the rankings and releasing too many chapters. That would be too stupid.

So, I'll just try for the monthly ticket rankings in March, and see how far I can get. I'll do my best and leave the rest to fate. Otherwise, it feels like something's missing if a book with 40,000+ average subscriptions has never tried for the rankings.

Actually, the outline for each part of the content has already been finalized before I start writing. The detailed outline for the current cycle is about 65% complete. I'll work hard these last few days of the month to perfect it, and I should be able to write very smoothly throughout March.

In short, those with money, please support me with money; those without tickets, please support me with your presence. Thank you very much! I guarantee that this plot will be as exciting as before.

In addition, I still welcome everyone to give rewards during this period, but all the extra updates in March are for the rankings and will not be added separately. The extra updates for the new Alliance Masters will be paid off in April.
