When system cheat becomes rampant!

Zheng Xing usually worked as a security guard, earning not much money. He himself was an N-level Awakener, but his son had luckily awakened an R-level system and had even managed to get accepted into Jizhou University. In order for his son to have a better future than his own, he was willing to spend money on his son.

After pondering for a moment, Xiang Beifei said, "I've taken relevant courses at the university, and these gourd vine fruits are indeed useless."

"Is that so?"

Zheng Xing looked at the fruit in his hand, hesitating. Students from Liangzhou University certainly knew much more than he did, but he still couldn't be certain.

"You can take it to the relevant department for appraisal, or you can test it simply yourself. Weigh the fruit, then burn it to ash with ordinary flame. The fruit will burn away, but the Spiritual Qi Crystals that precipitate inside will not be destroyed by the ordinary flame. Then weigh it again for comparison, and you can roughly determine the Spiritual Qi content of the fruit," Xiang Beifei casually reminded him, as the man's intention in buying the fruit was similar to that of his own grandfather—it wasn't easy to make money for the kids, and spending it needlessly felt pretty bad.

At that moment, the fruit vendor who was bragging heard Xiang Beifei's words and said sternly, "Kid, are you an SR-level Awakener?"

"No," Xiang Beifei shook his head.

Upon hearing that the other party was not a top-level expert, the fruit vendor immediately yelled, "Then what nonsense are you spouting? These high-Spiritual Energy fruits cultivated by a genuine elite university's SR professor, and you dare to talk rubbish here without knowing anything? I have an SR-level expert's appraisal certificate for this!"

He held aloft an excellently made high-grade appraisal certificate and then continued, "You're not an SR-level Awakener, yet you dare to question an SR-level expert? Where do you get the courage from?"

This fruit vendor named Wang Yiying was an Awakener of the [R-level Eloquence System]. He was the type of person who usually made quick cash. In fact, he had no stall at the wholesale market but temporarily partnered with a fruit vendor boss to sell his gourd vine fruits.

His target customers for selling fruit were R-level and N-level Awakeners. S-level purchasers usually made their own judgments and wouldn't give him a second look, but he could confuse and sway N-level and R-level customers with his eloquence, making them wholeheartedly believe in his products.

Xiang Beifei shrugged his shoulders, "The alliance law stipulates that exaggerating in advertising and defrauding consumers is subject to ten-fold compensation."

"Bullshit! My gourd vine fruits are the real deal, new system transgenic products with no toxins, no pollution. How is that exaggerated advertising?" Wang Yiying exclaimed.

"Whether it's true or not, can't we just get an appraisal?" Xiang Beifei said.

However, Wang Yiying didn't bother to pay any attention to Xiang Beifei and continued to address the crowd, "Don't listen to this kid's nonsense. I mentioned earlier, R-level students, after eating my family's fruit for one year, reached the latter stages of Qi-Controlling. You think that's a miracle? Wrong! The real miracle is yet to come!"

As if to be more persuasive, Wang Yiying once again used his system ability [Confuse Truth With Falsehood], deploying it for everyone to see.

[Confuse Truth With Falsehood]—this ability was linked to his speaking skills. Anyone who had a lower cultivation level than him would believe his tall tales as facts, as long as they heard him speak.

"Let me tell you what a miracle is!"

Amid the crowd, Wang Yiying spoke nonstop, "You all know about N-level top scholar Xiang Beifei, right? The one who got into Liangzhou University as the top scorer in the Jiuzhou preliminary exams. Do you know why he got into Liangzhou University?"

Wang Yiying scanned all the people, and particularly glared at Xiang Beifei before saying, "That's because before the entrance assessment, he just happened to eat the gourd vine fruits grown by my family for one month! With the help of those gourd vine fruits, he broke through his limits, and now he is at the latter stages of Qi-Controlling! Think about it! In half a year, an N-level student reaching the latter stages of Qi-Controlling, it's all thanks to the effects of my gourd vine fruits!"

Xiang Beifei: "..."

He did not expect Wang Yiying to actually bring up this example to persuade everyone.

In front of him, no less?

Since when did you start spinning lies without even drafting them first?

Xiang Beifei was bemused.

"Really? He got into Liangzhou University by eating your gourd vine fruits?" someone asked, astonished.

N-level student Xiang Beifei had been a hot topic throughout Jiuzhou since the last summer break, recently triggering a wave of "options." Practically, everyone had heard of him.

"Absolutely true!" Wang Yiying thumped his chest, "I happen to be an old acquaintance of that Xiang Beifei. Just last month, he thanked me over the phone, saying he wanted to endorse my gourd vine fruits, hoping more low-level Awakeners could get into their desired universities with the help of my fruit. And you—"

Wang Yiying then waved his hand, stirring up a breeze, pointing directly at Xiang Beifei's nose: "You're not an SR-level Awakener, what insights do you have? Just here to slander my product, I think you're jealous of Xiang Beifei!"

Xiang Beifei: "..."

Jealous of myself?

He stroked his chin.

Contemplating this very serious philosophical question.

Sometimes, when he looked at himself in the mirror, seeing his handsome face, he did indeed ponder this question.

"By the way, have you ever seen Xiang Beifei?" Xiang Beifei couldn't help asking.

"Have I not seen him? Why, just last month he and I had the liveliest conversation!"

Wang Yiying thumbed his nose with great emotion.

Xiang Beifei: "..."

Wang Yiying was just a quick-money scammer, constantly lurking around various markets to make a quick buck and then take off. Someone like him wouldn't bother to mince words because, once he had sold his products and people realized they were fakes, he would be nowhere to be found to argue with anyway.

All he did was sell some small goods, unregistered, without qualifications, evading all sorts of regulations, recently just happening to drift here to swindle.

As for Xiang Beifei, having defeated SSR and saved the city, he had become the new idol for the younger generation of martial artists on the internet, enjoying the limelight. Wang Yiying seized the moment and figured he'd make a splash by impersonating Xiang Beifei.

In Wang Yiying's view, at this moment Xiang Beifei ought to have been all over the place doing ads and shooting movies with the alliance; how could such a big star possibly come here?

Anyway, since the person wasn't there, it didn't matter how he bragged; there was no way to verify it.

Wang Yiying was still feeling quite pleased with himself, blissfully unaware that he had accidentally run into the real deal today.

Xiang Qingde next to him was also stunned. He had planned to buy the Seven-Fruit Gourd Vines for his grandson, but once he heard this guy spouting nonsense, he instantly realized that he was selling counterfeits, and he became furious!

"You scoundrel! How dare you impersonate my grandson!"

Seeing his grandson's reputation being used as a tool for making money, Xiang Qingde couldn't bear it and started rolling up his sleeves, ready to flip the stall over.

Wang Yiying's face froze and he said, "Sir, you'd better be careful with your words. Who is your grandson?"

"Xiang Beifei is my grandson! How dare you swindle people using my grandson's name?" he bellowed angrily.

"What?"

The crowd was abuzz!

All the astonished eyes fell on Xiang Qingde.

Wang Yiying couldn't keep his composure anymore, it was just a casual remark, how suddenly did a grandfather of Xiang Beifei emerge?

But he quickly calmed down. Everyone had heard of Xiang Beifei, yet not many knew Xiang Qingde!

"You say you're Xiang Beifei's grandfather, so you are Xiang Beifei's grandfather? I might as well say I'm the grandfather of the Calabash Brothers!"

Wang Yiying shouted, "Don't believe him, everyone, this man is just trying to attract attention. He's coveting my Seven-Fruit Gourd Vines, a competitor's stooge here to slander me. I know the real Xiang Beifei and his family! They don't look like this at all. This old man dares to deceive by impersonating Xiang Beifei's name and defame me, which is truly hateful! I've never seen such a shameless person before!"

He pointed at Xiang Qingde, his voice resonating as if he was the victim and Xiang Qingde the imposter.

Hearing Wang Yiying talk like this made Xiang Qingde almost explode with rage! Read new adventures at My Virtual Library Empire

What a guy!

A thief crying "Catch the thief!"

Such thick skin and even turning the tables!

Angrily, Xiang Qingde said, "Weren't you just boasting about chatting joyfully over the phone with Xiang Beifei? Then you should have his phone number, call him and have him prove who you are!"

"Hmph! The man is busy all day long with cultivation and study, how can I bother him? As for you, impersonating Xiang Beifei's grandfather, if you don't leave now, I'm going to call the police and have you arrested!" Wang Yiying said.

"I need to impersonate myself?"

Xiang Qingde was practically amused to fury.

People around started whispering to each other as they weren't clear whether Xiang Qingde was telling the truth or not. Normally, with Xiang Beifei being so famous now and making a fortune just with endorsements, why would his grandfather need to come to a wholesale market like this?

Both sides were adamant.

However, Wang Yiying utilized his system ability, Confuse Truth With Falsehood, to influence the judgment of the onlookers. Most people here didn't have high system registrations, and with Wang Yiying's cultivation at the later stage of Qi-Controlling, he more than had the ability to impress them. As a result, in their eyes, his words became more persuasive!

Moreover, Xiang Qingde, lacking a system, compared to Wang Yiying, made his words seem far less credible.

"Could this old man be senile? How could Xiang Beifei possibly be his grandson?"

"If I had a child like Xiang Beifei, I'd have retired long ago to enjoy my old age, having anything I wanted to eat. Why would I need to come to a place like this?"

"Yeah! I find what this boss is saying more believable."

Many were swayed by Wang Yiying's system ability, believed what he said, and began to doubt Xiang Qingde.

Xiang Qingde grew increasingly angry as he was spoken about, but fortunately, he had brought his own child out for a stroll today. Otherwise, he really wouldn't have been able to argue with Wang Yiying.

Yet, he also found it strange and turned to whisper to Xiang Beifei, "What's wrong with these people? You're so famous now, don't they recognize you?"
