Chapter 671 - 671: Wan Family's Master

"What? It wasn't a site malfunction or a hacker attack?"

"No way. Little Ghost actually got the Daluo Golden Immortal title?"

"Can someone tell me what the hell is going on? April Fools' Day is still a long way off!"

On the forum, most people were expressing shock and disbelief.

At the same time, another group was angrily questioning the decision:

"Little Ghost broke the rules! He was spamming the Morning Enlightenment, Evening Death section! It was already outrageous that he wasn't punished, but you actually went and rewarded him with the Daluo Golden Immortal title? By what right? Are you playing us for fools?"

"There's definitely something shady going on! This Little Ghost must have given the forum admins some kind of benefit to be able to act so brazenly, even trampling all over the rules!"

"When did the Daluo Golden Immortal title become so cheap? Heh, I really wonder what seniors like Pill Immortal and Sword Frenzy will think when they find out about this."

"I bet they'll release a statement renouncing the Daluo Golden Immortal title. After all, being associated with someone who got the title through despicable means is a total disgrace!"

"This shitty site is doomed!"

These rants and accusations garnered a lot of support. For a time, the Chatter section was flooded with nothing but posts of this type. But for some reason, Yan Yang never posted an explanation.

However, some people felt that things weren't as simple as they seemed.

After all, the Cultivator Forum had never messed around like this since its inception. Moreover, everyone from the forum's creators to its moderators, major and minor, were either well-known figures in the Cultivation Realm or rising stars. These people valued their reputations more than anything, so how could they possibly do something so disgraceful that would destroy their own credibility?

Immediately, these people, driven by curiosity, went to the Morning Enlightenment, Evening Death section. They wanted to see for themselves what Zhao Yuan's "spam" posts were actually like.

They suspected that the reason the Little Ghost account had been awarded the Daluo Golden Immortal title was, in all likelihood, related to the answer posts he'd made in the Morning Enlightenment, Evening Death section!

And when these people paid to view Zhao Yuan's answer posts, they were immediately stunned. At the same time, they understood why the forum had awarded the most prestigious Daluo Golden Immortal title to Little Ghost, an alternate account that was less than a month old!

Because this person wasn't spamming at all—he was clearing the board of questions at an unbelievable speed!

When did such a monstrous academic prodigy appear in the Cultivation Realm?

All the question threads in the Morning Enlightenment, Evening Death section were extremely difficult. Even for long-established seniors in the Cultivation Realm, being able to answer two or three would be considered impressive! Some of these question threads had even been sitting there unanswered for years, which just showed how hard they were!

But now, this Little Ghost had answered hundreds of question threads in rapid succession!

Among them were several super-difficult problems that no one had been able to solve for years!

What was most astonishing was the speed at which Little Ghost answered. Sometimes, it took him less than a minute to solve a complex cultivation problem. This made people wonder if the guy had prepared the answers long ago and was just copying and pasting them now.

And you know what? They were half right.

Zhao Yuan was indeed copying the answers. However, he hadn't prepared them in advance. He just needed to glance at a question, and the answer would immediately appear on the Information Leaf.

Its speed and accuracy were countless times better than any search engine, like Google or Baidu!

After reading Zhao Yuan's replies, this group of people, now completely engrossed, started clicking on more question threads related to their own Cultivation Schools.

Many of the problems in these posts were ones they had encountered themselves. Even if they had already found solutions, they still wanted to see the answers Zhao Yuan provided.

After all, his answers were countless times more profound than the methods they knew!

As for problems they hadn't encountered, they read those too, making sure to fully understand the solutions. That way, if they ever faced a similar issue in the future, they could solve it with ease instead of being stuck for years!

As for the fact that you had to pay to see the answers, and they weren't cheap?

Who the hell cared about that?!

Being able to learn a True Inheritance Secret Technique just by paying some money was an incredible bargain, okay! Normally, even if you offered ten or a hundred times the price, you couldn't dream of learning knowledge this good, this profound!

While reading the posts, they didn't forget to go back to the Chatter section to post in defense of Zhao Yuan and the forum admins: "Everyone stop arguing! There was nothing shady about Little Ghost being awarded the Daluo Golden Immortal title; he earned it with his own ability. If you don't believe me, go to the Morning Enlightenment, Evening Death section yourselves and pay to see his answer posts."

At first, the appearance of such posts didn't extinguish people's anger and suspicion. Instead, it led to new misunderstandings.

"Holy crap, the paid shills have arrived?"

"Someone's actually defending a spammer, whitewashing for someone who's playing dirty?"

"Trying to trick us into spending money, are you? Dream on! You think we're idiots?"

But soon, these people discovered that in the Chatter section, more and more people were starting to speak up for Little Ghost. And among them were even some well-known figures on the forum.

This made them start to wonder. Could it be that Little Ghost wasn't actually spamming, but had provided valuable and meaningful answers?

And so, more and more people, filled with curiosity, went to the Morning Enlightenment, Evening Death section to pay and see Little Ghost's answers. After reading them, they, just like the others before them, were stunned. They then rushed back to the Chatter section to defend Zhao Yuan and apologize to him.

"I was wrong. I shouldn't have doubted Little Ghost. This senior isn't a spammer at all, nor was there anything shady going on. He really did earn the Daluo Golden Immortal title with his true abilities."

"I want to apologize to Little Ghost too! When I think about how I actually mocked and questioned him before, I just want to slap myself twice!"

"Son of a bitch. From now on, if something like this happens again, I'm going to get all the facts straight before I open my mouth. Otherwise, I'll just end up making a mess out of good intentions!"

"Everyone, go look! Little Ghost isn't spamming at all; he's teaching us a True Inheritance Secret Technique! I never imagined that someone so noble, so virtuous, existed in this world! From this day forward, whether Little Ghost acknowledges it or not, I will see him as my master!"

"Me too! Calling Little Ghost's answers a form of teaching the Dao wouldn't be an exaggeration! From now on, I will serve him with the etiquette of a disciple! If anyone dares to disrespect Little Ghost in the future, they'll have to go through me!"

"Seconded!"

"+1!"

"+10086!"

The very same people who had just been questioning and attacking Zhao Yuan had now done a complete one-eighty, and all of them were clamoring to take him as their master!

And so, while Zhao Yuan remained completely oblivious, he had somehow gained the baffling nickname of "Wan Family's Master"...
