Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

Yue Ohno has even started planning her trip to Hawaii.

The winner of each of the three games will receive a seven-day trip, so if there are no special restrictions, their whole family might be able to travel for 21 days.

This is a very rare opportunity.

Takeyusei had also arranged an interview team. After the official list of the challenger was announced tomorrow, he would follow Ohno Tomoe to see how excited his parents were.

A chance to change the whole family comes from video games, which is great positive publicity.

However, things took a slight turn.

The next morning, Zhu Youxing woke up to a phone call.

This call was made by an employee who is specifically responsible for tracking speedrunners.

"President, today I did the final statistics for several challenge venues, and the final list has changed again."

"Oh, a change? Has the latest completion time for Metrorod changed?"

Zhuyouxing believes that the other three games are unlikely to change.

In the past, Mario, Contra, and Tetris were built upon years of speedrunning before some skilled players achieved even higher records.

The video game industry has only been around for a year or two, and no one has seriously studied speedrunning. Ohno Tomoe's records are now considered a game-changer, and it's hard for anyone to surpass them. However, it's normal for some geniuses to surpass one of Ohno Tomoe's records.

"No, President, the records for all four games have been updated, and the same person achieved all four records, and the records are all terrifying."

Zhu Youxing was taken aback.

Four games were all broken by the same person at the same time?

That sounds a bit outrageous.

"Tell me about it properly."

……

On the other side, Tomoe Ohno was unusually energetic today.

Or perhaps he didn't sleep at all last night.

Because I was too excited.

He has already planned his next trip.

However, just to be on the safe side, he decided to take another look at the specific rankings today.

So he left home early, and on his way to the video game store, a few people recognized Ohno Tomoe at a glance and greeted him happily.

Yue Ohno gradually tried to adapt to this situation and returned the greeting politely in return.

He has improved significantly from his previous withdrawn state and seems to be gradually emerging from his psychological shadow.

Early in the morning, many players also gathered at the arcade, eager to witness the final day's challenge list.

Of course, none of them expected to win first place.

However, the specific rewards for the challenge have been announced before, with the second and third place winners receiving three million and one million yen respectively.

Those ranked fourth to tenth will receive a reward of 100,000 yen.

Then the top 1% of players will receive any first-party game from either the Super Famicom or the Game Boy.

These players also wanted to see if their names were in this range.

Even if they are not within this area, they can still go to the store to pick up a special keychain.

I heard that the keychains you get vary depending on your ranking percentage.

So the closer Yue Ohno got to the arcade, the more people greeted him.

Many people followed behind Yue Ohno with expressions of admiration, with children making up the largest group.

After all, children are more likely to spontaneously admire someone who is capable than adults are, as children tend to be more reserved.

And so, Yue Ohno arrived at the arcade surrounded by a group of people.

However, since the arcade opens at 8:00 AM, they arrived a little early and had to wait for the official opening.

During this process, many people surrounded Tomoe Ohno, and some enthusiastically asked her about her future plans.

Some people still haven't given up and want to continue seeking out Tomoe Ohno as their apprentice; this video game master is someone worth learning from.

Yue Ohno is now radiant. He doesn't care about others' admiration for him, because admiration can't bring him a good life.

He's only interested in the next reward now.

Finally, the shop door slowly opened, and people immediately turned their attention to the door.

"Ohno-san, please go inside first!"

Someone immediately bowed respectfully and said...

These people were more likely joking, but their respect for Ono Tomoe did not diminish.

Yue Ohno was used to this kind of adulation, so she didn't refuse and went into the video game store first, heading to the TV that displayed the rankings.

The arcade staff also went to the television, turned it on, and then the latest rankings were officially displayed to everyone.

Super Mario 1 fastest challenger: Takasugi's fastest time: 2 minutes and 16 seconds.

Contra's fastest challenger: Takasugi's fastest time: 5 minutes and 43 seconds.

The fastest challenger in Metrorod: Takasugi's fastest time: 34 minutes and 2 seconds.

Tetris highest speed record holder: Takasugi. Highest level: 18. Duration: 10 seconds.

Upon seeing the list, Ono Tomoe's expectant expression instantly froze.

Everyone around him was stunned.

Meanwhile, Ohno Tomoe felt a roar in his own brain.

How did you do that in Chapter 188?

At one point, Tomoe Ohno felt that all her plans were useless.

In just one day, all the clearance data was refreshed instantly.

This is truly disappointing and heartbreaking; the prize money was right in front of him, yet he missed it in an instant.

However, the second place winners in the three games can each receive three million, so a total of nine million might still be acceptable.

Yue Ohno is quite satisfied with this aspect.

But he's more interested in something else right now.

How did this person named Takasugi manage to do it?

Mario can complete the game in just over two minutes?

How do I do this?

He began frantically thinking of possible strategies, but no matter how hard he tried, he felt it was simply impossible.

But this data is right in front of us.

He couldn't say anything.

Many players around Ohno Tomoe were also dumbfounded.

This is a bit too bizarre. Who exactly is this person named Takasugi?

On the leaderboard, they can see that the challenge venue for this Takasugi is a video game store located in Adachi Ward.

Ono Tomoe had also been to that arcade, and some of these players came from Adachi Ward.

But none of them knew this guy named Takasugi.

At this moment, several players looked at Ohno Tomoe with slight embarrassment.

They had previously wanted to become Yue Ohno's apprentices.

But now that first place has been taken away, it seems that Tomoe Ohno isn't a true gaming master after all.

There's clearly someone more formidable here.

Moreover, his record is even more terrifying and overwhelming.

"Wait a minute, don't you guys find this strange? The completion time is a bit too low, isn't it?"

"Perhaps they have some special way of getting through customs?"

"But no matter how special it is, it shouldn't be this low."

Most players can't imagine it.

But now there are a few players who can actually occupy a certain ranking on the leaderboard.

Among them are the current seventh and eighth place players, as well as several players in the top 1%.

They might not be as focused on speedrunning as Tomoe Ohno.

But at least they knew the approximate completion time for this game level.

There are eight main levels in Mario, and each main level has four sub-levels, for a total of thirty-two levels.

The previous demonstration by Tomoe Ohno also made them aware of the option to skip levels, which greatly reduced their time.

However, they cannot achieve the extremely low error rate of Yue Ohno, so their time will be a little longer than Yue Ohno's.

They believe that Ohno Tomoe's method of clearing the level is already the optimal solution. In theory, at most, one can only try to improve the error rate by a few seconds or tens of seconds.

This suddenly shortens the time to just over two minutes, which doesn't seem quite right.

"Didn't Ohno-san find a faster way to clear the game before us and then quickly finish it? Maybe this Takasugi-sensei-sensei did the same?"

"This……"

Others seemed unable to raise any objections, even though it certainly seemed absurd.

“Ohno-san, this is actually quite good. The three second-place winners together make nine million yen, so please don’t be too sad.”

Someone gently patted Ohno Tomoe on the shoulder to comfort her.

Some of them seemed concerned that Ohno Tomoe might be feeling down because of this.
