Chapter 772: Goodbye, Wei Kai

Nie Yan looked ahead. Two to three hundred people were standing in neat formation. Although their clothes were not uniform, they still exuded a strong aura.

“Who’s in charge here?” Nie Yan asked, scanning the crowd with his gaze.

All eyes turned toward Li Shi Huasha, who was dressed in business attire, exuding a mature and seductive charm.

“Guo Huai asked me to take charge,” Li Shi Huasha replied with a modest smile.

“Okay, I’ll take a look around. I might not come here often, so this place will rely on all of you,” Nie Yan said. Blue Wind Bell had been established by Li Shi Huasha, fully demonstrating her leadership ability. There was nothing for him to worry about.

“Huasha Jie,” Xie Yao approached and greeted.

“Yaoyao, you’re here too,” Li Shi Huasha said happily, taking Xie Yao’s hand.

The two beautiful women stood together, dazzling and eye-catching, instantly drawing everyone’s attention.

“Boss, sis, come with us,” Bu Si De Huai Dan said, leading the way.

Nie Yan, Xie Yao, and others followed behind. As they walked, Bu Si De Huai Dan explained that the villa was quite spacious, with a central hall for gatherings and dozens of individual rooms. Although the villa was located in a relatively remote area, it could still be considered a mansion. No one knew where Guo Huai had found such a big house. Each top player of the War God Studio had a private room, and others had also been provided accommodations by Guo Huai.

Nie Yan observed that most members used helmets, as they obviously couldn’t access higher-level game pods. However, the helmets they used were of a relatively high grade, which was sufficient.

Li Shi Huasha and others had also created studio regulations and set salary standards for each player based on funding provided by Guo Huai, directly linking compensation to contributions.

Due to the large number of people, although there were signs of tidying up, the place was still somewhat messy. However, considering they had just moved in, it was already quite well done. All procedures were orderly and meticulously executed.

“Boss Nie, although it’s a bit chaotic, we’ve already arranged for cleaning. Everything will be back on track this afternoon,” Bu Si De Huai Dan said. In this branch, his position was second only to Li Shi Huasha’s, and he was responsible for various affairs.

Nie Yan nodded and smiled. “Good.”

The War God Studio was finally established. Once everything was fully operational, it wouldn’t take long before it became the largest studio in the country.

Most ordinary studios consisted mostly of laborers, often doing the most menial tasks, including farming gold and selling the obtained gold to major factions. There were also various production professions, with combat professions making up only about one-tenth of the total. Moreover, the majority of combat players had low incomes, with only a few top-level players earning decently.

Compared to studios, there were even more players who could only remain outside the studios, working as professional players without fixed salaries.

Nie Yan’s plan was to gather true elites through the War God Studio, aiming to build it into a powerful force.

Nie Yan and Xie Yao chatted with everyone in the studio for a while.

The team members felt extremely excited to have such close contact with Nie Yan.

Dingdong, the doorbell rang, and a team member went to open the door.

“Big Brother Xiao Yan is here.”

“Boss Xiao is here.”

There was a commotion near the entrance. Xiao was also a well-known figure in the Bull Man Tribe. Now that he had appeared in person, the members were very excited.

“You’re here too,” Xiao’s gaze fell on Nie Yan, and the two exchanged smiles.

“I came to take a look.”

“This place looks lively. I’m planning to join the War God Studio,” Xiao said, looking around with a smile.

“Welcome,” Nie Yan chuckled.

With two to three hundred people gathered together, the scene was indeed lively. As they were all from the Bull Man Tribe, everyone got along quite well. Although there were occasional minor conflicts, everything remained peaceful thanks to the mediation of Li Shi Huasha, Bu Si De Huai Dan, and others.

After staying for a while, the members who were still students gradually dispersed to attend their classes, while Xiao and others stayed behind.

Nie Yan and Xie Yao bid farewell to Xiao and set off with Bu Si De Huai Dan, Yu Wang Ran Zhi Qing Chun, and about fifty others toward the First Military Academy.

With over fifty people, it was a grand procession. As they passed through the campus, people nearby looked at them with curiosity.

“They’re all from Blue Wind Bell. What are they up to?”

“Who knows. Hopefully, they’re not looking for trouble.” With over fifty people, if they were to start a brawl, it would be hard for anyone to stand against them.

“Look, that’s the leader of Blue Wind Bell, Crazy Thief Nie Yan.”

They were pointing at Nie Yan, who undoubtedly became the center of attention. Carrying the title of Crazy Thief Nie Yan, it was hard not to draw attention.

Nie Yan had already become a prominent figure at the First Military Academy. Moreover, due to his connections with the Heavenly Kings organization, the power he could mobilize at the First Military Academy was formidable.

Qin Han, Liu Rui, and other long-time rivals of Nie Yan envied his influence at the First Military Academy, but they dared not provoke him. Nie Yan’s position at the First Military Academy had become unshakable. Many students from the First Military Academy who had previously been recruited by the Mone Corporation finally realized that the Mone Corporation had only gathered a bunch of ragtag individuals, who proved to be easily defeated. Many of them joined the Bull Man Tribe through various means.

Many elite students from the First Military Academy became members of the Bull Man Tribe, further solidifying Nie Yan’s unshakable position at the First Military Academy. Those who had previously pursued Xie Yao also gave up voluntarily. Jokingly, pursuing Xie Yao and trying to undermine the leader of the Bull Man Tribe was practically a suicidal act. One guy, who claimed to be Xie Yao’s suitor, even boasted about taking down Nie Yan, but he was intercepted the same day and didn’t dare to attend class the next day.

Through his connections at the First Military Academy, Nie Yan obtained information about Liu Tianshi’s class details. The guy was a graduate student who rarely attended school, and his background was unknown to everyone, making it temporarily impossible to investigate.

Nie Yan increasingly felt that the guy was no ordinary person. Within the small First Military Academy, he had managed to conceal his background so deeply.

Recalling how Liu Tianshi had killed Tang Yao in his previous life and still acted with impunity, Nie Yan felt some concern. This guy was definitely a ticking time bomb. Although the legal system was well-established, there were always some people who remained above the law. For Nie Yan, whatever he did had to follow the rules of the game, while Liu Tianshi could break the rules at any time.

After receiving the report from his subordinates, Nie Yan instinctively clenched his fist. No matter what, he couldn’t allow this guy to threaten the safety of himself and his family. And Xie Yao too, the way Liu Tianshi looked at Xie Yao made Nie Yan feel uneasy.

Nie Yan called Cidao and asked, “How is Wang Duo’s training going?”

“Not bad. These guys managed to stick around this long, so they’re not completely useless,” Cidao replied.

Although Cidao’s words were a bit sharp, they also somewhat acknowledged the progress of Wang Duo and others. Being able to gain Cidao’s recognition proved that their strength had improved significantly. Mo Yuntian was currently the highest-level person Nie Yan could access, and the most important thing he could do now was to establish a good relationship with Mo Yuntian.

At present, all the glory meant nothing to Nie Yan. Those envious gazes couldn’t cause the slightest ripple in his mind.

Nie Yan attended classes in the morning and received a call from Tang Yao at noon.

“Nie Yan, Wei Kai wants to see you,” Tang Yao said. During this period, Tang Yao had been in more contact with Wei Kai, but Wei Kai had yet to meet Nie Yan in person.

“Wei Kai?” Nie Yan thought for a moment. He had ignored Wei Kai for so long; it was time to meet him. This person would still be useful in the future. “Let him come and see me, but only him alone.”

“Okay, where should we meet?”

“At the Glory City Bar. Book Room 88 at seven tonight. This matter must be kept confidential and cannot be known by others,” Nie Yan said. Although he needed to make contact with Wei Kai, he had to maintain a certain distance, as they were not on the same path.

“I’ve already informed him.”

“During this period, you’ve had more contact with Wei Kai. What do you think of him?” Nie Yan asked. His understanding of Wei Kai was still limited.

“Tang Yao evaluated, ‘Wei Kai is ruthless and cunning, quite capable. However, he values loyalty and treats his subordinates well, which has earned him high respect. That can be considered one of his strengths. He can be used, but with caution.'”

“Hmm.” Nie Yan nodded. Wei Kai was definitely a venomous snake. If not handled properly, instead of biting others, he could easily bite himself.

In the afternoon, Nie Yan called Li Shi Huasha, Bu Si De Huai Dan, and others, asking them to send Xie Yao home and stay there for a while until he returned. He also called Cidao, asking him to protect Xie Yao before heading to the Glory City Bar with peace of mind.

The Glory City Bar was located in the city center, the most prosperous district. It was a place that never slept. At night, pedestrians flowed continuously, making it extremely lively.

A Solon roared past, and Nie Yan drove into the underground garage before entering the entrance of the Glory City Bar.

Inside the Glory City Bar, neon lights flickered everywhere. Amidst the loud music, people were wildly releasing their inner wildness.

In his previous life, Nie Yan had frequented such places many times, but later, after he reformed, he rarely came here. For some reason, he felt somewhat uncomfortable in this noisy environment.

However, meeting Wei Kai in such a chaotic place was the best choice, as it was less likely to be noticed by others.
