Chapter 926 -862: Zhao Continent Joins the Merger

Villa.

Study.

Lin Yuan stood near the window, his breath calm and steady as he held his arm suspended in mid-air. With each twist of the wrist, he carefully outlined the painting before him, his brush gliding smoothly across the paper, leaving behind fluid, ink-black lines…

The subtlety of the ink punishment completely came from the brush.

Between reality and fantasy, strength and softness, coarseness and fineness, dense and light—Lin Yuan, with his Master Level painting skill, had reached a state where technique was second nature, with his works radiating a natural beauty and inherent elegance.

And while he was painting,

Lin Yuan’s gaze seemed to capture a certain charm.

This charm poured onto the paper with each stroke as if it were mountains and rivers brushed in ink.

It was an indescribable atmosphere that lingered around the unfinished painting, remaining cohesive—

This was Paintfection!

Paintfection is a very mystical skill.

With Paintfection activated, Lin Yuan felt his painting technique had improved compared to before, yet it was as if his level remained the same, only now he seemed able to infuse his understanding and perception into the painting through his brush.

In the heated competition of brush strokes,

gradually, an ink-washed painting of a galloping horse appeared on the paper!

The simple image emanated a lofty air, with forceful and unrestrained strokes. With no saddle or reins, one could see the noble spirit and wild pride of the horse through the surface of the painting…

Whew!

With the final brush stroke laid down.

Lin Yuan put away his brush and let out a slight sigh of relief.

He had been working on this painting for an entire week, not only employing his newly acquired Paintfection skill for the first time but also consuming some power potions. Now, at last, it was complete.

As for why he still chose the galloping horse as a subject…

It was because the galloping horse painting Lin Yuan had prepared for the chairman had been snatched up by Zheng Jing.

Today, he finished another galloping horse painting, ready to be gifted to the chairman, after all, it was something he had planned in advance.

It’s worth mentioning:

With the addition of Paintfection, the value of the galloping horse painting Lin Yuan completed this time had surpassed that of the one taken by Zheng Jing.

Stretching his back,

Lin Yuan muttered to himself, “Next, I should paint a few pieces of different themes for Senior Yao Huo.”

In order to paint, Lin Yuan hadn’t left the house for several days.

And as Lin Yuan sequestered himself, time had quietly moved into January, bringing the new year!

Lin Yuan, 25 years old!

This also meant:

The Zhao people had joined the merged continents!

Blue Star’s unification had advanced another step!

Although Lin Yuan had not ventured outside, he could already feel the impact of the Zhao Continent’s inclusion.

As the cultural barriers broke down, the people of Zhao Continent eagerly engaged with the popular culture of Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, and Han, and quickly recognized quite a number of celebrities from these regions!

Xian Yu!

Chu Kuang!

Shadow!

New n𝙤vel chapters are published on novelbuddy.cσ๓.

These three personas of Lin Yuan quickly became familiar to the people of Zhao Continent, given the influence of his works in the five continents of Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, and Han.

Music.

Literature.

Painting.

Games.

Lin Yuan’s prestige in these four fields had seen an uptick thanks to the addition of Zhao Continent, though because today was only January 2, and Zhao Continent had joined the merge for just two days, the increase was not significant. It would take more time to see the real effects.

…

Online.

Due to the addition of Zhao Continent,

The forums have been very lively these past two days.

The netizens of Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, and Han warmly greeted the Zhao people and constantly interacted with the netizens of Zhao Continent.

The people of Zhao Continent had an interesting way of speaking.

For example, some netizens recommended the TV series “Lotus Lantern” to people from Zhao Continent, and those who fell into the trap cursed out loud that night:

“This drama is terribly poisonous!”

“Your intentions deserve to be condemned!”

“Chu Kuang, old rascal, come and face your doom!”

Zhao people speak with a flavor of costume dramas, and their style of speech is somewhat different from that of Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, and Han.

Fortunately, most of the time, everyone’s language style is quite similar, and Zhao people just like to use more classical Chinese characters for certain words.

Interestingly:

The way Zhao people speak has also sparked a wave of imitation among netizens from Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, and Han.

They think this way of speaking is very retro and has a certain level of pretentiousness.

It’s a common cultural shock after the merger.

As for recommending “Lotus Lantern” to Zhao people, netizens from all continents do it without any psychological burden; instead, they enjoy teasing them and seem to have a lot of fun.

On the other side.

Having completed his painting, Lin Yuan was also actively getting acquainted with Zhao Continent’s culture.

Many calligraphy and painting works from Zhao Continent were spreading online.

Some of the paintings and calligraphy were so impressive that even Lin Yuan considered them Master Level!

Yes.

Master Level!

This discovery shocked Lin Yuan!

Lin Yuan himself possessed Master Level painting and calligraphy skills, he couldn’t possibly be mistaken!

Blue Star truly was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

He did not anticipate that in contemporary Zhao Continent, there would also be master-level painters and calligraphers at his level!

No wonder people say:

Zhao Continent is a position of books and paintings.

This phrase was not wrong at all.

The artistic mastery of Zhao people in calligraphy and painting completely overshadowed that of Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, and Han continents.

Just as Lin Yuan was planning to delve further into Zhao Continent, his phone rang. It was Ol’ Zhou calling.

“We’ve wrapped up filming ‘Resident Evil’, and now it’s time for post-production, but that’s not important. The main thing is, Happy New Year!”

“Happy New Year!”

Lin Yuan showed a smile.

Not long after the phone call ended, Sun Yaohuo also contacted Lin Yuan.

After Lin Yuan answered the call, Sun Yaohuo’s voice came through, “Happy New Year, junior brother. I have a bit of good news, our game is now fully developed and will be launched at the end of this month.”

Landing and becoming a box?

Oh, wrong.

I think it’s called “PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.”

These were two pieces of good news.

Both the movie and the game would provide Lin Yuan with a considerable amount of Prestige Value upon their releases.

“Also…”

Sun Yaohuo went on, “Yu Dynasty Hotel will officially open in a month, but we’ve already started inviting some lucky guests to try out the rooms. We plan to install an internal version of ‘PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds’ on the computers in the hotel rooms. If the trial guests are interested, they can play it without affecting the game’s release.”

“Oh?”

Lin Yuan became interested, “Then I want to play too!”

Sun Yaohuo laughed, “No problem, I plan to invite everyone from Yu Dynasty over to play together. I’ll protect you in the game, junior brother!”

“Sure!”

Lin Yuan looked forward with anticipation.

He didn’t need Sun Yaohuo’s protection at all.

In his previous life, Lin Yuan had played “PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.” Although he was just average at it, he was definitely better than some players who were new to the game!

At least in the early stages of the game, Lin Yuan could dominate!

Invincible!

Too bad Blue Star’s tech tree was not developed aggressively enough; if gaming helmets and gaming pods could be invented, it would certainly make the game more interesting.
