Chapter 1: The Supreme Player

  Many people reacted that Chapter 1 is hard to accept, so friends who don't want to read it can directly skip the first two chapters, which won't affect anything. Also, there will be explanations in later chapters.

  －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

  On May 18, 2030, the "God War" that many players have been waiting for three years will be launched. The top 100 players from all over the world will engage in fierce battles on this day to determine who is the true god-level player in the game "King of Gods".

  Players who can participate in the Divine War are selected through layers of screening, from hundreds of millions of players, their goal is only one, to defeat all and win rich prizes and 200 million cash.

  A game's prize pool reached 200 million, this is not a crazy dream, in the year 2030 when virtual online games are prevalent, this is reality!

  Li Yi's face was gloomy as he slowly squeezed out of the crowd and walked towards the rostrum.

  He's in a terrible mood today because his girlfriend is getting married tomorrow, unfortunately the groom isn't him. Whoever this happens to, no one would feel good about it.

  He is one of the 100 "Gods of War" contestants, but he is different from other contestants. There isn't even a single teammate by his side.

  Alone!

  The 100 players from all over the world arrived soon, and when the notary held up the "Sacred Sword" and shouted that the divine battle had begun, hundreds of millions of players on the God's Mountain also boiled up.

  The first battle, team coordination!

  "King of the Gods" is not a one-man game, to climb "Gods' Mountain", it's impossible without a good team, so in the first stage of the battle, contestants are allowed to choose any teammate and cooperate with them.

  As soon as he heard the rules of the first battle, Li Yi's face turned green...

  Team...

  A long, long time ago, he had already lost his team because in the pantheon of gods, he was a big scammer who everyone hated. How could such a person possibly have his own team?

  "The contestants just find anyone, as long as they have five people, they can enter the arena!"

  Among the 100 participants in the "God War", except for Li Yi, who doesn't have a team of his own? In just over ten minutes, 99 players led their teammates into the arena, while only Li Yi stood alone, motionless...

  Until all the contestants had entered, Li Yitian took a deep breath and walked up to the notary, asking: "Excuse me, can I participate alone? I...I couldn't form a team."

  "Can't form a team?"

  The notary looked at Li Yi in surprise, thought for half a day, and finally nodded.

  "Okay."

  "Thank you!"

  Li Yi's face lit up with joy, as if afraid that the notary would change his mind, he quickly walked into the dueling arena...

  The first battle, Li Yi VS 20 people!

  Only 33 seconds!

  Li Yi lay on the ground.

  "You're strong, but unfortunately, the King of Gods isn't a one-man game!" A player with an orange bow and arrow pointed at his head, saying coldly.

  Out of play!

  "This is impossible!"

  Li Yi yelled loudly, took off his helmet and slammed it on the ground, then kicked open the door and ran out.

  As if to prove his mood, thunder rumbled outside and before long, a torrential rain poured down.

  Li Yi walked very slowly in the rain, and he was already soaked from head to toe, but he didn't notice at all.

  No one answered him, he lingered in the rain for a while, suddenly thought of something and immediately ran wildly.

  In front of the white small building, Li Yi looked at the elegant woman in front of him. Thinking that tomorrow she would be wearing a wedding dress and marrying someone else, he felt pangs of heartache.

  "Qian'er, wishing you happiness..."

  After a long time, Li Yi finally squeezed out a sentence from his throat and turned around to run wildly.

  "Li Yi!" Qian'er shouted after him, but Li Yi didn't turn his head and ran even faster.

  Qian'er covered her face and wept.

  Li Yi walked in the rain, all the way, he kept calling people he knew.

  "Yangzi, I was wrong, sorry."

  "Sorry? Who are you? Do I know you? Big liar!"

  "Jiaojiao, where are you? Come out and chat with me, I...I am Li Yi."

  "Alright, wait for me, on this day next year, I will definitely go out, big liar!"

  No one paid attention to him, his friends had long since seen through him.

  Beyond cure!

  Li Yi was furious, shouting loudly and running rapidly in the rain.

  "Was I wrong? Was I really wrong? Was I goddamn wrong? Was I wrong? I was wrong, can't I change now? I'll change!"

  Just as he stood in the middle of the road yelling at the sky, a red sports car came speeding over and slammed right into him.

  On the evening of May 18, famous "King of Gods" player "Night Emperor" died in a car accident at the age of 26. It is speculated that the cause of the incident was likely due to "Night Emperor"'s loss in the "God War", leading to such a desperate act.

  Here is the translation:

  The following is the biography of 'Night Emperor', Name: Li Yi, Occupation: Thief, One of the 100 gods' war candidates, In the second year of the opening of the gods, entered the game, Night Emperor is known for his agility and cunning...

  The Night Emperor is most infamous not for his gaming skills, but for his 'deception'. According to statistics, in his 7-year gaming career, at least tens of thousands of players have been deceived by him, with a notorious reputation. It is said that when he was announced as a "God War" player, the opposition vote on the official website reached 99%.

  The vast majority of people laughed, a tiny minority sighed, but those who truly felt heartbroken for Li Yi were hardly a few...

  ……

  "My life is really a failure..."

  Li Yi let out a soft sigh and slowly opened his eyes.

  "This..."

  Li Yi stared at everything in front of him in shock, his mouth opening wider and wider.

  This is a classroom. Many students wearing black and white school uniforms sit at their seats, some with their heads buried in books, others chatting and laughing with their deskmates...

  In front of the classroom, on the blackboard, there were rows and rows of multiple-choice questions, which made his eyes dizzy.

  The scene before him was one that had occurred when Li Yi was in his third year of university.

  This is a scene from eight years ago!

  Eight years ago? How did I go back eight years ago?

  Li Yi pinched his arm hard, and a sharp pain shot through it, making him wince.

  I can feel pain, I'm not dreaming... what's going on? Didn't I get hit by a car and die?

  Did I really reincarnate?

  Li Yi's eyes lit up and he stared blankly at the stack of student assignments on the podium, suddenly remembering something, let out a loud cry, and rushed towards the podium...

  "Li Yi, what are you doing!"

  Just as Li Yu rushed onto the stage, a young female teacher in her early twenties walked into the classroom with a book and stopped him.

  Teacher Zhang Yan...

  Li Yi felt his eyes moisten and almost cried out loud.

  A delicate and clean face, gold-rimmed glasses, a petite figure, the young female teacher in front of him was none other than Li Yi's former Chinese language teacher.

  Nothing, nothing at all.

  Li Yi said as he moved to the blackboard, with his back to Zhang Yan, and grabbed the notebook from the top of the podium.

  Li Yi's notebook didn't have much in it, but what made him nervous was that inside the notebook, there was a piece of paper with a drawing of a ** and a line of small words: My name is Zhang Yan, I'm big-breasted and brainless, I don't wear underwear, and I think about men every day.

  This is a masterpiece of Li Yi.

  "What's in your hand? Give it to me!"

  Zhang Yan pushed up her glasses and stretched out her hand towards him.

  It's terrible, can't I change anything even if I'm reborn?

  Li Yi gritted his teeth, took out the slip of paper that was tucked between the pages of his notebook and stuffed it into his mouth, swallowing it down...
