Extraordinary Player

After reading through the news for some time, Qin Guan found out why he could not find any companies hiring Transcended Gamers. It was because the government did not allow them…

From this alone, he could tell that the government was rather strict in this regard. After all, Transcended Gamers had a rather unique status as of right then. The government would definitely be on guard against risks.

Besides, since the government had plans to include Transcended Gamers into the governmental system and foster them as well as manage them, they would definitely not wish to hand then over to the various companies and enterprises during this idle time.

“Alright, looks like I don’t have any other choices…”

Qin Guan shut down the web page and temporarily gave up on this thought.

However, when he browsed online, he noticed something. Many concepts and titles had been popularized. Some were referring to people who had cleared Jump!! Medium Mode and obtained the unique bodies of Transcended Gamers or Transcenders, others the change of Map of Trials 1 to Jump!!, and so on. 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚

Clearly, this was the effect of everyone being in possession of a mobile AI system. Based on Qin Guan’s understanding, the mobile AI systems were like guides for people. They could effectively ensure that players’ actions were limited and could be controlled.

This was evident in how Map of Trials 1 had changed to Jump!!. If humans did not have the mobile AI systems, this would have been absolutely impossible. Every single person had their own way of referring to things, and they could not change it in the blink of an eye because they were simply used to it.

However, with the mobile AI systems, as long as all the AIs changed the way they addressed the map, the entire world would naturally follow suit and change the way they referred to the map.

The concept of Transcended Gamers was clearly also slowly accepted among the people after the mobile AI systems repeated it nonstop.

“You don’t have to be too troubled by this. I can go and ask the supervisor or the leaders of the university about the details of the policy that will be implemented in the future. They might loosen up the control sometime soon,” Su Xiaoyu comforted him.

Qin Guan nodded. “Alright.”

Su Xiaoyu’s guess was not without reason. As of right then, the government kept a tight leash over the matter, so much so that it even forbade all companies and enterprises from hiring Transcended Gamers to control the situation. This was highly necessary at the current stage of development.

However, this situation might not last. In the future, if the government managed to develop a system to foster Transcended Gamers but were not able to use all of them in the market, it would definitely release some gamers to the public to be hired by other companies and organizations.

Naturally, those organizations would have to obey the law and be under the control of the government. However, their level of freedom would be slightly higher, and because of it, the materialistic benefits the gamers received should also be higher.

Of course, Qin Guan could not really say what the policy for the Transcended Gamers would be like in the future. He could only observe it as it was developed step by step.

However, he had a feeling that there was no problem with Su Xiaoyu signing the contract, because the quality of the information and resources received within the system itself was always much greater than what was received outside it. This was true no matter what situation. Even if the salary was low, her future would definitely be great.

And this was the most realistic part of the difference between those within the system and those beyond it. Those who did not sign the contract would not be able to receive news regarding new policies straight away or get any insider information. This alone was enough to show just what sort of loss was this for those beyond the system.

Besides, while Qin Guan had no idea which path he should take, at the very least, he would no longer need to worry about their rent.

Those who completed the trial and received the unique bodies of Transcended Gamers were definitely considered as rare talents. While they might not get rich overnight, they would definitely not need to be troubled over their rent and living expenses.

Hence, they would be better off by continuing to train and increasing their abilities. This was what they should be doing in earnest.

…

Qin Guan’s life over the next couple days was rather monotonous. Besides eating, he did nothing else but train every single day. His score in Map of Trials 2 also increased slowly.

It went up to around 1,600 points from the initial 59 points. He had already improved exponentially, but he was still far away from the passing score, which was 3,000 points.

Besides, the further he progressed, the harder it was for him to improve. He had to spend more time on each aspect.

The only good news was that Qin Guan felt that he was getting more proficient in using the fruit knife. Once he got used to it, he even felt that it was actually quite useful, but what the hell was with feeling that a fruit knife was useful…

While Qin Guan worked hard, oblivious to the matters in the outside world, he did not know that the peace he experienced right then was the sign of an incoming storm. The appearance of Transcended Gamers would definitely bring about a drastic change to the world. However, for the time being, the drastic change was still only brewing in the dark.

While Qin Guan might have become a Transcended Gamer, he still had to go to class. What the supervisor said was true: He had to show some consideration for the old lecturers’ feelings…

Besides, there were very few students who had completed the trial. Most of them still had to take the old path of going to university to earn a degree so that they could get a job. Universities could not descend into chaos just because of the AIs.

On that day, Qin Guan came out of the world in his mind in the morning. He had to prepare to go to school.

The class that day was once again Introduction to Aesthetics. Qin Guan did not want to offend Professor Li and become one of the members of the fail squad at the end of the term.

Su Xiaoyu had something to do in the morning, so she went out ahead of him. Hence, Qin Guan did some chores in the house and walked to university by himself.

When he entered the lecture block, he saw two people arguing in the corridor before he even went into the lecture hall.

A seemingly thin and frail boy blocked a tall and strong boy. He said in anger, “Are you just going to ignore that you knocked into me? Aren’t you going to apologize?”

The tall and strong boy cast him a glance and said in an unconcerned manner, “I didn’t do it on purpose. It’s not as if anything bad happened to you. Do you really have to do this?”

However, the thin and frail boy refused to let it go. “Apologize.”

Some of the students by the side hesitated whether they should go up and mediate the fight, but clearly, they did not know the two boys. Their conflict was not very intense either, so no one wanted to go up to mediate the fight for the time being.

Qin Guan cast a glance at the thin and frail boy, and he felt that he was rather awesome. The thin boy was shorter by a head when compared to the tall boy, and they were in completely different weight classes. However, the thin boy did not cower at all.

In truth, it was rare that cases of violence happened in National Key Universities. Forget fighting, it was rare even to see students arguing fiercely with each other.

On one hand, it was because most of the students who made it to National Key Universities were well-mannered people. They had good temperaments and were more cultured. On the other hand, the rules the university placed in its halls were rather strict. If the fight went far, two things might happen. If the university administration decided to let two people off lightly, they would just get a demerit, but if the staff decided to punish them severely, they would be dismissed.

Of course, no matter how rare it was, fights still occurred. After all, there were rash people everywhere. When two stubborn people crossed paths, no one could predict the outcome of what would happen in the conflict.

The tall boy did not want to give the thin boy any attention. He snorted coldly, called him a nutcase, and wanted to leave. But the thin boy suddenly ran forward and knocked the tall boy down to the ground. 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com

“Since you refuse to apologize, I’ll knock into you as well. Now, we’re equal,” the thin boy said coldly.

The students in the area were flabbergasted. What had just happened?

How had he managed to knock down such a big boy with his thin frame?

Then, when they looked at the thin boy again, they found that his clothes had already changed into an athlete’s shorts and tank top. The disc on his temple was gone.

‘He’s a Transcended Gamer who completed the trial?’ Qin Guan was stunned. ‘You truly can’t judge a book by its cover.’

However, when everyone thought that this matter would come to an end this way, the tall boy got to his feet with obvious anger on his face. “You’re just looking for trouble, huh?”

The next second, he changed into his body from the trial, and he, too, was an athlete.
