34 Boats x625! (1/2)

(*I did it! I finally fucking did it! I'm a goddamned mad lad I tell ya!! I have written up the arc for the next 20-30 chapters, so all that's left to to make it sound less shitty. Ok cool, continue reading. Also, I didn't forget about other empresses; they'll be taken away after this competition part.*)

By now, it was several hours into the competition. Each of the 625 teams had settled the matters concerning their leader, and had moved on into the planning phase. The ones deemed the best artists were tasked with design and leadership, while the rest did the manual labor. This went relatively quickly since a lot of the girls had pre planned their designs.

Most of the teams had already completed the 'barebones' ship; consisting of a hull and the skeleton. Following this, several dozen women would be tasked with the job of forcing the wood to bend. It was a delicate job for them since any one of them had the strength to decimate the wood. It was for this reason that many teams rotated the girls out until they found the ones who could properly handle their strength.

The others would be put to the task of applying primer to the wood, and covering it with tar to make it watertight (This confuses me because some websites say tar is waterproof, and some say it isn't. In this story it is).

Kuini, Xinyi and the judges she selected were spectacularly failing their roles as they spent more time bickering with each other and flirting with Da long than they did judging. Nevertheless, Da long smiled as he watched the scene. With his sharp eyes, he could easily see most of the designs for the ships, and most of them centered around him. Many had the bowsprit (*the front part of the boat that sticks out*) designed to be his godly body.

A few however, had their bowspirit shaped just like his 'big dragon' (a.k.a, there's a big cock at the front of the ship), which made him almost burst out laughing. He was thinking just how terrifying it would be to see that ship charging at you.

Other popular themes were of mythological creatures such as dragons and wyverns; or mermaids and sirens.

It was roughly 12 hours into the competition before the women began attaching their hulls to the skeleton. Using their own strength as clamps, they lined up next to each other and forced the shape to hold. Other women would take care of painting it with tar to waterproof the hull, and crafting the sails.

Thinking ahead, Da long had an interesting idea. He currently housed over 30 million women in his little worlds, yet less than 6% of them showed up to watch. He mulled over ideas in his head, before a solution came to him.

His eyes brightened as he thought of a 'live viewing' option he could add to the system. This would be a feature where any number of girls could watch a live playing of another girl's mission. By introducing this, more of the non-cultivating women would be able to identify with the cultivating women, and the cultivating women would be incentivized to take more missions and perform better.

Fully satisfied with this idea, Da long entered the administrator system, and began implementing the live viewing system. To make things even better, he made it so that each of the teams during this competition would be able to work under a custom banner, and receive votes from the viewers.

For normal live viewing of parties of 6, he added similar options. Locking it all in, he sent the update to all the women. Immediately, the new update notes popped up, notifying each woman of the additions.

Pausing, all the women stopped to stare at Da long before discussing the new additions amongst themselves.

Within minutes, many of the groups had drawn up their banner and started creating their team names. Instantaneously, the viewers started coming in. Before long over 25 million women had tuned in. The rest- well they were probably off taking missions, sleeping, or masturbating to Da long.

As the votes started rolling in, the top five teams were: Team Rose, Team Vermillion, Team Treasure, Team Rainbow Mermaid, and the most shameless team; the team titled Da long's Fan Club. As expected, there would be at least one team who would suck up HARD to Da long. (Put teams in english instead of Chinese to make it less confusing. Doesn't sound as cool tho)

The number one spot was taken by Da long's fan club. It was as if the women identified with this group the most. Second place was Team Rainbow Mermaid, and the subsequent followers were Team treasure, Team Rose, and Team Vermillion.

By using the new live viewing system, the women in the stands were able to see much closer to the action. They were able to freely switch between teams and each member of the team with free camera controls.

Most of the women were very appreciative for this because either their cultivation bases were too low to view the intricacies of the competition, or they didn't have cultivation at all.

Leaning back, Da long placed his hands behind his head and watched the competition in contentment. The several women around him however, fought over who would get to sit on his lap. In the end, Kuini won, although she did let the other women grab ahold of each of his arms.

*BTS*

Four days have passed since the start of the competition, and the ships were beginning to come together.

The flashiest ships by far was a tie between Team Treasure, and Team Rainbow Mermaid.
