A virtual arena was no different from a virtual space in terms of appearance, the entire place was an endless starry sky.
The difference is, with one thought from Gu Xiqiao, pavilions, towers, and beasts will appear, the sound of birdsong can be heard in your ears, and the scenery is very much like the original.
Feeling joking all of a sudden, he thought of Jiang Shuxuan's figure, like his perfectly sculpted face, thin lips and pointed nose, a pair of cold onyx eyes. His eyelashes were actually quite long, but not many people were aware of it, as they did not dare to look directly into his eyes.
And finally, a faint glint in his eyes that was filled with invisible pressure.
When the figure of the figure appeared before him and looked at him for a moment, Gu Xiqiao was dumbfounded. It was extremely realistic and flawless, from his appearance to his breathing, there was no difference at all.
If the person in front of him was not so realistic, he would not have known that he could remember so many details about this person so clearly.
He waved his hand, eliminating the entire scene in front of him, leaving only a vast starry sky.
Standing still for a while, he then made an open space simulation. Moving both of his hands and drawing patterns in the air, he began to practice and test his latest strength. A green light suddenly appeared, and then a huge crater about ten meters deep appeared on the ground with ‘explosion’.
[Beauty Qiao, your strength looks good, there seems to be great potential at the Tendon Forging level.] The spirit system floated beside him. [Try the Eight Trigrams array again, when you advance two more levels, then you can condense your chi into a physical object filled with power, just like Jiang Shuxuan did with his ice sword.]
Gu Xiqiao nodded his head, and with a thought, eight pieces of jade floated around his body, the entire space immediately closed.
[When you have enough points, the virtual arena can still be upgraded. When it reaches a certain level, it can be realized as well.] While Gu Xiqiao had been playing, the system spirit had found information regarding the virtual arena in his database. [You need to earn a lot of points!]
“It's not like I can get points whenever I want,” Gu Xiqiao said, sighing, “Even 1,000 points in the last round almost killed me.]
[Calm down, we're not in a hurry.] The spirit system said, hovering around the virtual space, [Oh, you continue to stay here, Beauty Qiao. I'll be out a few rounds!]
“Continue.” The spirit system had been in this empty space for some time, he knew it would not be able to resist.
Playing around in the virtual arena for a while longer, he experimented on a skill he knew, before stopping, doing his daily mission instead. Upon completion, he issued a construction plan for Baixing Village.

The next day, Gu Xiqiao woke up early to do the morning exercises as usual, with Haha and Xixi staying by his side all the way. He met many people he knew on the street, and when he reached the place where he usually practiced the Five Beasts Game, the familiar figure of an old man was there.
“Little Gu, you are finally back,” The old man smiled as he looked at Gu Xiqiao. When he had not seen her a few days ago, he asked about it to Jiang Shuxuan, who was also doing the exercises back then, and discovered that he had gone traveling.
After a few days, he finally saw it again, “Come and see if I did this correctly or not.”
The old man had discussed with him before, and started using a slightly modified version of his Five Animals Game. Although he did not have any compatibility with it, the moment he moved this time, there was a clear flow in his meridians. After finishing his movement, he let out a happy sigh. “People in my home recently said that I look younger.”
He also felt his body was much lighter, he used to only be able to jog for half an hour last time, but now he could go for at least an hour!
He felt that this must have been Gu Xiqiao's doing, but he would always smile without saying anything when he said it, and the old man could only sigh and not bring it up again.
The two had not seen each other for a long time, and they had a lot of things to do, talking for a long time.
When they can't avoid the fact that it's time to eat, they part.
Madam Zhang had prepared a familiar soup, with a similar taste. Gu Xiqiao drank it and thought, ‘If this continues, it won't be difficult for me to gain weight.’
After eating, he prepared to go out. When Xixi heard that she was heading out, and she flew over to her shoulder immediately, signaling that she would also follow. Gu Xiqiao rubbed his head. “I'm heading to finish some things, why do you want to come along, try to be cute?”
“Beauty Qiao, I have great ability, who knows when you will need it. Master Jiang has also told me to follow you wherever you go, to protect you. If anything happens to you, she'll pull out my beautiful feathers! “
“Alright, you can follow me, but don't talk and don't eat anything others give,” Gu Xiqiao agreed, knowing that if it was Jiang Shuxuan's order, he wouldn't be able to refuse.
Xixi stared triumphantly at Haha over Gu Xiqiao's deal and compromise.
Guk guk! (Mistaken, ******!)

“Chirp chirp ~” (Sigh, go with Beauty Qiao makes me very happy ~)
Guk guk! (Let go down the shameless thing!)
“Chirp chirp chirp ~” (Are you going to bite me if I don't get off ~)

Gu Xiqiao's plan today was to first stop by the Nine Heavens Network company to check in. Since Mu Zong was not there for the time being, he wanted to see how Luo Wenlang had persevered in managing the company. Afterwards, he would go to the hospital to see how Mu Jiatong and Luo Wenlin were doing.
Instead of driving her own pink car, she took a taxi downtown.
After visiting the company a few times, the receptionist already knew him, and left him without much question. He only glimpsed at her shoulder, which was holding...the beautiful fiery red bird?
When he got into the elevator, the spirit system that had been out all night woke up in a daze. [Morning, Beauty Qiao ~]
‘It's not morning anymore,’ Gu Xiqiao took out his phone to look at the time, and raised an eyebrow. ‘Become a bulk data set, you still need to sleep?’
[It feels different,] The system said, materializing into a spirit form in front of him. [I didn't need a break last time, but now I can go to take shape, so now I'm considered a living being, and rest has now become a way for me to replenish the energy. Of course, when I am upgraded to the highest level, then I can really become my own life.]
[To be able to feel tired and sleepy is really a good feeling.]
‘You can be alone?’ A pair of beautiful eyes widened in surprise.
[There is information related to this in the database, but I think it's impossible, there's never been a record of anyone succeeding in the entire database. Anyway, I'm satisfied with everything now!] The spirit system said, as it followed Gu Xiqiao out of the elevator.
‘I will try my best,’ Gu Xiqiao said with a sigh. He felt that his goal was too difficult to achieve, but if there was even a glimmer of hope, he would definitely give it a try.
[Beauty Qiao, you are the best!]
He came at an inconvenient time, Luo Wenlang was having a meeting with the upper management. The secretary was one that Mu Zong used to use frequently, and he was one of the few who knew Gu Xiqiao's identity. He greeted her respectfully and took her to the general manager's office, and also gave her a stack of documents for her to see.
Gu Xiqiao leaned in front of the table, flipping through the documents.
He read through the stacks quickly, taking just one second for each paper, and five minutes later, he was done with them. While he was flipping through the documents, he also picked some that he thought were important, putting them aside.
The secretary watched as Gu Xiqiao read the newspaper quickly, and she assumed that she had only caught a glimpse without reading it in detail, so she did not say anything. But then Gu Xiqiao took the pile and handed it to him, “First book, page two, second book, page five, third book, page five, fourth book, page seven and fifth book, respectively, page six. The reports and bills are not counted. “
Without further words from Gu Xiqiao, the secretary opened the pages mentioned to read them.
Twenty minutes later, “Nona Gu, I'll take care of it.”
The secretary reassured Gu Xiqiao, he was Mu Zong's secretary, and there were many small and big problems that he dealt with, and so was the way the company worked. But he didn't expect to see someone who could read the documents so quickly, and find trouble in them with just a few glimpses.
He had turned the page so quickly, had he really finished everything? Even if he could read ten lines in an instant, it wouldn't be that fast, would it? What's more, many of these documents require a lot of calculations to do.
The secretary looked shocked, but she had met quite often with all kinds of talents before, so she recovered quickly and put away her feelings, and proceeded to tell Gu Xiqiao about the recent developments.
After a few minutes, Luo Wenlang finally entered through the door. When his eyes were fixed on Gu Xiqiao, he looked at her in surprise. “Why are you here!”
“View-only.” Gu Xiqiao dispersed the secretary by waving. “How are you doing, everything is fine?”
He knew that this was the first time Luo Wenlang had managed the company, and was most likely unfamiliar.
“I was a little unprepared, but fortunately, Uncle Wang is here to teach me, it turned out to be better than expected.” Luo Wenlang laughed lightly. As a second genius after Gu Xiqiao, his intelligence was not comparable to that of an ordinary person. Although very busy on the first day when he took over, but with the help of Wang Bo and the secretary, he finished everything on the second day.
Seeing that he was quite independent, Wang Bo left him alone and dove straight into his sea of data once again.
Luo Wenlang served a cup of tea to Gu Xiqiao, looked at Xixi on his shoulder curiously, and then seemed to think of something. “That's right, I went to pick up someone with Uncle Wang last night.”
Xixi had sworn to Jiang Shuxuan that she would not speak in front of outsiders, and it took a lot of effort to swallow the words she wanted to say, ‘Are you in love with my beauty?’
“WHO?” Gu Xiqiao asked, raising an elegant eyebrow. Since the two of them left together, it must have been someone quite important.
“According to Uncle Wang, he is a great hacker who has just returned from abroad,” Luo Wenlang smiled as he said that. “Our company will soon add another talent, from the looks of it.”
A hacker who just came back? Gu Xiqiao suddenly recalled something Jiang Shuxuan said last night. “If he is a great god, why is he interested in small companies like us?”
This time, Luo Wenlang did not manage to speak, and the system spirit floated in front of Gu Xiqiao, giving him a mischievous smile. [Beauty Qiao, you underestimated me too much. The things I produced are all out of this world, have you forgotten? All the firewalls on the internet on earth are nothing in my eyes, I can even take out all the secrets of your military base now for you to see!]
