Chapter 326: ROOKIE CARNIVAL REGISTRATION (1/2)
LUO YAN looked around the Arena once they entered. He was surprised to see that there were already quite a number of players inside. Most were lining up in different booths. It was only half past eight in the morning and yet there were already a lot of participants here. Maybe he and Luo Jin should have gone earlier. Well, at least the line in each booth were still not that super long.
”Let's go and line up,” he told to Luo Jin.
There were currently five booths where players could register for the Rookie Carnival. The two went and line up at the booth with the shortest line. Although Luo Yan said 'shortest' but it would probably still take about half an hour before it was their turn. He let his younger brother stood in front of him since he's much smaller and it would be easier to talk to each other this way. Luo Jin probably thought of that too. So, even if he wanted to act tough and stood behind him, he didn't insist.
As soon as they lined up, Luo Yan looked around, observing the other players around. But he didn't see anything interesting, so he just looked forward. As he did, he happened to hear the conversation of two players standing on the line to their left. Luo Yan would probably not notice what they were talking about but he heard the names 'white-haired elf' and 'black-haired gnome' being mentioned. The two were obviously talking about him and Luo Jin. He's sensitive to things like that, so he couldn't help but listen.
”Hey, those two are both Special races, right?” one asked.
”Yeah. According to what I heard, Special races are mostly a sub-type of Common and Rare races. So, obviously, they are another kind of elf and gnome,” his companion said.
”Do you think they're powerful?”
”They probably have skills that are only unique to their race. But I doubt those two could live up to them,” the player said arrogantly with a bit of a mocking tone.
”What do you mean?”
”Come on, use your brain. If they managed to get a Special race from the random selection, that meant their gaming experience wouldn't exceed three months. How skillful could they be with such a short amount of experience? Besides, look at their costumes. They're obviously pay-to-win players. They probably drank tons of EXP potions just so they could reach level 80 in such a short time. Participating in the Rookie Carnival, these rich second generation must really think that they could win as long as they have money. How shameless.”

”You're right. No wonder I thought they were dressed too well. It turned out that they were one of those pay-to-win types,” the other readily agreed. ”Do you think that white-haired elf also bought that three-tailed fox on his shoulder?”
His companion snorted. ”Definitely. He probably bought it at a very high price at one of those auctions.”
”Rich people do have it good.”
Luo Yan no longer listened to the two. He would bet that these two were not the only ones talking smack about them. If he wasn't covering the lower half of his face, these people might even say that he beautified himself to the max. It's true that their costumes were mostly bought by money. But the two of them leveled up using the natural way – grinding and defeating a lot of monsters. Luo Yan, of course, would not stoop down to their level and explain it to them. The best revenge he would have was by winning the whole thing. These people's faces would probably hurt once that happened.
[Mashter, should Eclipse scratch the faces of those two.] – Eclipse suddenly said, clearly, he heard what those two people said as well.
He glanced amusedly at the fox on his shoulder who was now licking his claws. [Why do you always resort to violence?]
[Because the people Eclipse wanted to scratch deserves it.] – Eclipse said proudly. [Those two in particular definitely deserves it. How dare they talk like that about you, Mashter? You're so great and powerful, are they blind? You could probably finish them off in just one move. And saying that you bought Eclipse. Mashter obviously found Eclipse. Can't they see the great connection that we have? They're definitely blind!]
Luo Yan almost laughed because of the little guy's reaction. [Yes, yes, they're blind. But Eclipse, you don't have to mind people like that. They will soon get what's coming to them.]
