Chapter 216 Theme Competition: Fortune Apartment (1)
"Beep—The contestant has completed the script task. The team has accumulated 130 million views and 50 million star tickets for the work."
Congratulations to the Shide Guyuan Wine team for advancing to the next stage! Please participate in the themed competition after a week's rest.
After returning to the competition hall, Gu Shijiu was somewhat taken aback by the result of the script.
The final title of this drama is "The Tollbooth of the Merchant Road".
Um, Gu Shijiu suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
It's called a tollbooth, but it's really just a protection fee collection point; she didn't even build the road.
Moreover, she clearly hadn't completed the task, Gu Shijiu wondered.
However, her attention was quickly drawn to her first-place ranking on the Northwest Division leaderboard.
Five teams drew the same scenario in this competition, and Gu Shijiu eliminated four of them.
All four teams came from other regions, and she brought glory to the Northwest region.
Gu Shijiu was somewhat smug, looking around for the room number so he could meet up with Shi Qi.
Shi Qi finished her match earlier than her and was already in the lounge where they had arranged to watch their video together.
Gu Shijiu finally found a spot and spotted him immediately: "Where did you go for the last game? I haven't seen you around."
Hehe, her grades are definitely not as good as hers, otherwise the script wouldn't have this title.
Shi Qi sighed.
The live stream chat was filled with laughter.
"Hilarious! 6187 was thrown to another continent and spent the whole time helping cavemen build houses."
"You know what, farming-themed dramas aren't so bad."
"Who farms with the daily struggle against wild beasts and the constant threat to their life?"
"6187 seems to have decent hands-on skills; he can even build such a primitive wooden house."
"Didn't anyone see him trying to teach primitive people to read? Haha, it ended in a disastrous failure."
"Not bad, at least they've taught them how to use knotted ropes for record-keeping."
"To be honest, they only taught us how to tie knots, let's forget about using them for memorization. Big knots are important, small knots are trivial, who can remember them all?"
"If this were in the real world, he would be a figure from mythology who teaches human wisdom."
......
Shi Qi used to think that she could communicate smoothly with Gu Shijiu because she was a very patient person.
After working on this script, he suddenly realized that he still had a lot of room for improvement.
He was a little unaccustomed to returning to civilized society and it took him two or three days to recover.
Gu Shijiu was a little worried. What if she were thrown into this kind of world in the future?
"It's okay, at least we won't starve," Shi Qi comforted her. "Just beat up anyone who doesn't listen to you."
Honestly, given Gu Shijiu's fighting prowess, he should be able to easily organize the primitive people.
After all, they are still in a dog-eat-dog world, and Shi Qi just doesn't like to use violence.
Gu Shijiu didn't have this concern.
The two chatted and laughed, eating and drinking, and soon it was time for the main competition.
Their manager, Qijiu Liushisan, can now identify his artists' ID numbers and is extremely active in the fan group every day.
Nowadays, fans affectionately call him "San San".
San San never expected that Gu Shijiu and Shi Qi would achieve such great success, nor did she expect that their acting skills would be so widely appreciated.
To be honest, he initially paid attention to the two simply because they had achieved good results among the newcomers.
As the former agent of a famous movie star, his understanding of acting is consistent with the mainstream of the ethereal immortal realm.
He always believed that the two of them would become famous because of their inexplicable popularity with the audience.
In fact, San San doesn't know where this audience appeal comes from, and he still doesn't understand it.
But through this competition, he solidified his judgment.
Perhaps, those things he doesn't understand can change the entire evolution of the ethereal immortal realm.
If Gu Shijiu and Shi Qi can truly achieve this and become high-level cultivators through it, then he, San San—
San San's spirits were lifted, and she worked even harder.
"Dear viewers, welcome to the 300th Misty Immortal Realm Acting Competition, sponsored by Jingxi Group and organized by WB!"
The live broadcast room for the themed matches was even more luxurious, and each team appeared in the same lobby.
However, everyone's information and appearance were hidden; they could only see the names and numbers of other teams.
The host is passionately explaining the rules: "After four rounds of intense competition, the competition is now halfway through."
Currently, only 500 teams remain in the entire competition, and these 500 teams will later draw the script for the themed competition.
As with previous challenges, it is very likely that several teams will draw the same scenario.
After the themed tournament, only 10 teams will remain, and from this tournament onwards, all teams' points will be reset to zero.
This means that your past achievements will no longer matter, and everyone will be on the same starting line again.
Please note that deviation from the theme is prohibited in the themed competition. If the main plot of the script does not match the theme drawn, you will be eliminated.
Next, team leaders, please click the red button in front of you to draw your team's script!
Gu Shijiu quietly asked Shi Qi, "What theme do you want?"
"As long as it doesn't involve you scheming against others, it's fine," Shi Qi replied without hesitation.
He couldn't imagine how Gu Shijiu could act out such a script without distorting the main plot.
"Mhm." Gu Shijiu nodded, encouraging herself as she pressed the button.
The supporters of each contestant in the live stream were also very nervous.
This lottery system is designed to prevent cheating and even eliminates the influence of luck on the players, striving for fairness and impartiality.
Every time, cultivators who rely on luck to cultivate would protest, because they would feel very uncomfortable if they did not rely on luck at all.
However, the rules are what they are, and there's no way to change them.
At this point, all the contestants had drawn their scripts.
Gu Shijiu drew "Lucky Apartment".
Almost as soon as the plot synopsis was seen, her supporters went wild in the live stream.
"Well, it's true that there's no need for scheming, but the luck is just too bad."
"This kind of script is very dangerous and could very likely affect the mind of a monk."
"Believe me, it won't affect her at all; it seems she doesn't even have one."
"There's no need for intrigue, but the rules of this script are extremely complex. I doubt I can even understand it."
"No doubt about it, you definitely won't understand it, hahaha."
Gu Shijiu couldn't see the comments in the live stream; she was discussing the plot with Shi Qi.
Xu Zhongtian, a psychopathic killer, murdered and dismembered multiple people over several years, and even hid some of the "parts" in his home.
Three of them were his wife, who was in poor health, and his two children who were still in school.
He was eventually arrested by the police and committed suicide in prison.
According to sources, the incident occurred at apartment 1688 of Fuyun Apartment...
The theme is experiencing living in a haunted house; contestants are advised not to deviate from the main theme during the competition.
The script contains certain risks; please remember that safety comes first. If a contestant feels overwhelmed, it is recommended that they withdraw from the competition.
