“Do you think Glory is fun?” Chen Guo asked with utmost seriousness.

“Not bad,” Tang Rou said.

“Do you feel like it’s getting more interesting as you play?” Chen Guo asked.

“Yeah, I feel that way,” Tang Rou said.

Chen Guo smiled. If there was such upward momentum, then it looked good. Interest could be slowly cultivated!

The two of them packed up, and the three went down to the restaurant for breakfast together. On the table, Chen Guo took a copy of the hotel's free S City travel guide and kept flipping through it. “Let’s see what’s fun.”

Ye Xiu and Tang Rou looked at each other. Chen Guo happened to glance at them and said without looking up, “Don’t even think about holing up in your rooms playing games. We’re here on a business trip, and we have official business to take care of.”

Official business… Ye Xiu and Tang Rou both broke out in a sweat, and then they heard Chen Guo read, “The pedestrian street on Nanquan Road is the largest pedestrian street in S City integrating catering and shopping. This looks pretty good! What do you think?” Chen Guo shoved the travel guide in front of them.

Ye Xiu took it, nodded repeatedly as he read, and then suggested, “Boss, should we find a few of the larger internet cafes to get a feel for their operations and service conditions?”

“Great idea!” Tang Rou nodded repeatedly.

“No need. I grew up in an internet cafe. Who has more experience running internet cafes than me?” Chen Guo rejected Ye Xiu’s suggestion disdainfully.

After she finished speaking, the three of them smiled helplessly. Going on a business trip was, of course, nonsense, and going to internet cafes to investigate was just going along with the flow. Everyone’s simple thoughts were obvious at a glance.

“Alright, I was just teasing you,” Chen Guo confessed first. “You guys can do whatever you want! I have to find a place to shop properly. I can’t come here for nothing.” As Chen Guo said this, she drank her milk and flipped through her travel guide again.

“Uh…” Ye Xiu and Tang Rou thought about it. Boss Chen had paid for their travel expenses, food, lodging, and tickets, and brought them out for a trip. If they only cared about Glory, it would be a bit ungrateful. Immediately, the two of them slammed their hands on the table and decided to go all out today. They wouldn’t play Glory and would give S City a good tour.

“Really? Then come and take a look. Where should we go?” Chen Guo didn’t stand on ceremony at all and quickly pushed the travel guide over so that the two of them could look at it together.

Ye Xiu was definitely not a man interested in traveling and shopping. At this time, he lay on the side, only responsible for nodding and saying yes. Chen Guo and Tang Rou muttered for a while, but he didn’t know what places they chose. In any case, he would just follow behind them!

As a result, they had a very fulfilling day. Two spirited and beautiful girls attracted attention wherever they went. However, what was equally eye-catching was that behind these two beauties, there was always a listless guy who seemed to drag his feet.

Chen Guo and Tang Rou were used to Ye Xiu’s lazy appearance and didn’t take it too seriously. They just followed their planned itinerary all the way. Initially, the two of them had chosen five places, but in the end, they spent the whole day at only two. At a clothing store with new arrivals, the two girls stayed for a full two hours.

However, Ye Xiu liked those two hours. In the store, there were rows and rows of seats specially provided for resting. The men looked at each other and all smiled knowingly. Some of the more lively ones started chatting with the people next to them. When they talked about the Glory All-Star Weekend currently being held in the city, it immediately became the main topic, and then they expanded on it. There were quite a few Glory fans present, and everyone discussed it enthusiastically, with high spirits. Some of their female companions had already finished shopping and came to find them, but the men were reluctant to leave.

“Why don’t you look around again? Have you seen over there?” The men who were called away often resisted like this.

After a day of shopping, the two beauties bought a lot of things, big and small. The most impressive thing was that Chen Guo even bought a pair of high-powered binoculars, obviously to better observe tonight’s All-Star event.

The two beauties originally planned to visit five places, but they only visited two, and they were still not satisfied. However, they definitely didn’t want to miss the All-Star event, so in the end, they gritted their teeth, overcame their reluctance, took a car back to the hotel, threw down their things, and immediately rushed to the Samsara Club arena.

The booklet issued on the second day of the All-Star Weekend contained today’s schedule.

The second day has always been mainly performance-based, with almost no competitive matches. The activities on this day are usually small games designed using game scripts, such as racing, climbing, shooting, and obstacle courses in Glory.

These competition events sound ordinary, but they are naturally much more interesting in the game. The key point is that some of these small competitions do not prohibit players from attacking each other at all, and even killing the opponent during the competition is allowed. It's just that everyone has to be careful, as there won't be only one or two participants. If two people compete too fiercely, it will only benefit others.

These activities have been around for a long time and have been well-received by the audience, so they have never been canceled. Many players are even enthusiastic about imitating these game rules for entertainment in the online game.

The second day is also a day with a lot of interaction with the live audience. For these fun small competitions, each match will randomly draw some audience members to compete with the registered players.

After the fun small competitions to be held today were announced in the form of holographic projections, the event officially entered the first segment: the hurdle race.

A holographic projection flashed in the center of the arena, and a standard synthetic track appeared on the stage. There were eight lanes, numbered one to eight, looking just like the real thing.

The emcee in charge of hosting was now busy organizing the drawing of lots. Of course, the audience members all had seat numbers. The selected star players would randomly select audience members to come on stage using whatever method they wanted to participate in these competitions with the professional players.

In the first match, the ace player of the host team, Samsara, Zhou Zekai, was chosen to select the numbers.

“Zekai, what method are you going to use to select four audience members?” the emcee asked Zhou Zekai, who walked onto the stage.

“Um, whatever!” Zhou Zekai said after thinking for a while.

“We can have the computer randomly select, or you can just call out whatever number you think of, or you can choose something to throw to the audience, and whoever it lands on will come up, or you can come up with a new idea yourself. How about it, do you want to think of a novel way?” the emcee said.

“Um, that one!” Zhou Zekai said.

“Um?”

“Random selection,” Zhou Zekai said.

“Random selection? Do you mean computer random selection?”

“Yeah!”

“Then, then we’ll use this method to select one audience member to come up first. Look at the big screen, it will stop when you say stop,” the emcee said, and the numbers on the big screen began to scroll. Zhou Zekai immediately shouted stop.

Obviously, the staff operating the big screen hesitated. After Zhou Zekai shouted stop, it flashed two more times. The emcee was also sweating profusely. “You’re calling stop right at the beginning, alright, that counts. Let’s see which audience member it is… alright, he’s already rushing up here.”

The seat number that stopped on the big screen, there was no need for the emcee to announce it. The audience member in that seat had already rushed onto the stage excitedly.

“Okay, next, the second one, Zekai, do you want to change the method?” the emcee asked.

Zhou Zekai waved his hand rapidly, so fast that no one could see what gesture he was trying to make before he lowered it, and then said, “Uh, just keep rolling!”

“Keep rolling? You mean the big screen should keep rolling? You still want to use this method?”

Zhou Zekai nodded.

“Alright! Then the big screen will continue to roll, but this time you can…”

“Stop…”

“Can let it roll a little longer…” the emcee finished the second half of his sentence in a mouselike voice. Zhou Zekai had already shouted stop as if he was in a hurry, and another seat number was frozen on the screen.

Again, without waiting for the emcee to announce it, the audience member with that seat number had already started walking towards the stage.

“Okay, there are two more, Zekai, do you want to change the method?” The emcee simply didn’t bother reading it and continued directly.

“No need.”

“Alright! Then how about waiting a little longer this time before calling stop?” the emcee asked.

“Okay,” Zhou Zekai nodded.

“Alright! The big screen is rolling,” the emcee announced. After the big screen started rolling, the emcee had failed to announce the seat number in time twice because Zhou Zekai had stopped so suddenly. This time, he was determined to seize the opportunity.

The big screen was rolling, and the emcee was ready to read the number at any time. He waited and waited, and the big screen made his eyes dizzy. He looked at Zhou Zekai in surprise, but Zhou Zekai was still looking at the big screen very seriously, preparing to wait a little longer before calling stop.

“Zekai…”

“Stop!”

“Damn!” the emcee shouted in his heart. This time, the “stop” caught him off guard again. Fortunately, this time the audience was polite and didn’t rush up on their own after seeing the number. The emcee finally announced the seat number once before summoning the audience member.

“Now there’s one last audience member… Zekai, how about changing the method? You can just say a seat number, whatever you think of, and we’ll call an audience member up,” the emcee was not having an easy time, he just wanted to liven up the atmosphere a bit.

“Oh.”

“Then, what number are you going to say?”

“17,” Zhou Zekai said.

“17? Um! 17, can I ask why you thought of the number 17 so quickly?” the emcee asked.

“Uh…” Zhou Zekai “uh”ed, but didn’t continue speaking. He just looked at the emcee. The emcee was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and looked down.

The director also noticed the situation and quickly cut to a specific shot of the emcee. On the emcee’s t-shirt, the number “17” was marked on the left chest.

The audience burst into laughter. The emcee wasn’t too embarrassed. He was willing to sacrifice himself if it could liven up the atmosphere.

However, with just the number “17”, it was impossible to determine the audience member. Samsara’s home field seat numbers were divided into sections, rows, and then numbers. The emcee guided him all the way and finally got Zhou Zekai to say a complete seat number.

After sending Zhou Zekai down, the emcee wiped the sweat from his forehead. Exhausting! No wonder he’s the most difficult person to interview in the league.
