Chapter 109 What a cunning mind!
Chapter 109 What a cunning mind!
It all started when A, a military academy student in the class, sent a video of the class to B, a friend from the same school but a different class.
The reason she did this was simply because Xiao B was a fan of Li Xingzhuo and always regarded the First Legion as her future goal. So when she learned that Li Xingzhuo would be teaching Xiao A's class, Xiao B expressed her desire to audit the class.
However, the number of students a classroom can accommodate is limited, and since Li Xingzhuo assigned the time slots for A and the others to attend the class, B also had an important training session of her own. So she asked A to help record the class content.
So, after finishing the class, A sent the complete video of the class to B.
This "transaction" took place entirely within the two people's chat history.
Things are still normal up to this point.
However, after receiving the video from Xiao A, Xiao B was so eager to listen to her "idol's" class that she didn't go back to her dormitory. Instead, she opened the video from Xiao A in the classroom after class.
She did remember that it wasn't played in public; she just quietly huddled in the back corner of the classroom with her classmate, C, to watch it.
Because she wanted to watch it with C, B temporarily granted reading access to her personal computer screen.
The two watched with great interest, discussing in hushed tones, completely unaware that more and more classmates were gathering behind them.
When the two of them got tired of watching the video and paused it, preparing to go out to buy something and return to their dorm to continue watching, a voice suddenly rang in their ears, "Don't pause it!" which startled them.
The two turned around and saw a large crowd gathered behind them.
There were even a few people who weren't in their class at all mixed in.
"What are you guys doing...?" Little B began in surprise, only to be hurriedly interrupted by the surrounding classmates: "Keep playing, Little B! We're at a crucial point right now, and I'm waiting to see how Commander Li Xingzhuo comments!"
Others chimed in, "Yes, yes! The feedback is key!"
"Hey B, where did you guys get this video?! I just found out that Commander Li is here to substitute teach, and I was so disappointed that I couldn't audit the class. And you guys are watching this video of the lesson!"
Little B and Little C: "..." Of course they knew that the key was what came next, which is why they were preparing to go back to their dorms to savor the moment.
"Then..." A classmate noticed the hesitation on their faces and tentatively suggested, "Why don't you share the video with us? We promise we won't spread it!"
"Yes, yes, yes! We promise to only watch it on our own personal computers!"
B and C exchanged a glance and thought that this... seemed like a good idea, so B packaged up the video and sent it to them.
The other students who received the video did not share it with others. However, when they took the video home to watch it, it was seen by their friends, classmates, and even family members... Thus, the scope of the video course gradually expanded without them realizing it.
Finally, the story even spread to other military academies to an exaggerated degree. Many students began requesting related videos on their own campus forums.
Some busybodies even shared this story on StarNet.
"What video is this that so many people are asking for? It makes me want to get a copy and watch it too."
"It looks like a video of Li Xingzhuo attending class at the First Military Academy."
"Well, did you speak very well?"
"A friend of mine watched it and said it was actually pretty good, but not to the point where everyone was desperately asking for the video. The main reason is that Li Xingzhuo used that new 'High School Student Simulator' game, which only had a trailer, as teaching material during class."
"What?! Military academy students are eating this well now?! They can even play games that the girl in red hasn't even been released yet during class?!"
"I knew it! All sorts of perks came out right after I graduated! Why didn't I get these kinds of good things when I was studying at the First Military Academy?!"
"Is this a class, or is Li Xingzhu using this as a pretext to promote his new game?"
"Even the students being taught have no complaints, so why are you here complaining?"
"They're just using the game as a teaching tool. They're looking at the students' performance in the game and reviewing it afterward. Didn't you have holographic mecha combat lessons with teacher feedback when you were in school? It's just that Li Xingzhuo has chosen a different game."
"Can those games played by the girl in red be compared to holographic mecha battles?! Even mecha battles, as games, can train students' combat skills, but what can the girl in red's games train students for?!"
"There are plenty of other ways to train... You don't actually think those military academy students are only asking for his lecture videos because of his name, do you?"
"I heard that after Li Xingzhuo bought 'Double Happiness,' he used that game as a training exercise for his legion."
"!!! No wonder the holographic horror game competition ended and there was no sign of '囍' re-launching. Turns out it's become exclusive to the First Legion!"
"Wow...it's really that useful?! [Suddenly my heart skips a beat]"
"Guess what the 'first' in 'First Legion' means? The First Legion is number one because Li Xingzhuo's training methods are exceptionally awesome!"
"Hey, since Commander Li is using a 'high school student simulator' for training this time, can I get the same training method if I buy one too?"
"You've spotted the key point!"
"So where can I buy the game?"
"@NewWorld @NewWorld, when is the 'High School Simulator' finally going to be released? Don't force me to beg you on my knees!"
"I'm in a hurry! Where's the game?! Why hasn't it been brought up yet?! My wallet is starving and can't wait!"
"At this point, I'm already envious of the First Legion. Have they already done this already?"
"Of course, they'll definitely need to find people to test the Red Robe before it goes live... There are so many people in the First Legion, they don't need to come out and find anyone..."
"Speaking of which, the person in red hasn't publicly recruited anyone to test the game..."
"Does that mean that once you join the First Legion, you'll be able to play the game with the Red Robe as soon as it's released, and there might even be a special First Legion version?!"
"A path I never imagined has suddenly appeared! Alright, to play the game, I'm going to get into the First Legion!"
"Who could resist a legion that uses video games as training material?!"
"Where is the registration portal for the First Legion?"
……
By the time other legions noticed these comments on the StarNet, the internet was already flooded with messages like "When registering for a legion, register for the First Legion."
Other legions: ? ? ?
They quickly learned what had happened and then glared at Li Xingzhuo with gritted teeth.
They initially thought Li Xingzhuo had only created a gaming platform to generate some revenue and raise funds for the First Legion, so they didn't pay much attention. However, they were surprised to find that with the emergence of the New World, most military academy students on the StarNet now consider the First Legion their first choice, and Li Xingzhuo was actually there to recruit them!
Li Xingzhuo, what a cunning mind you have!
