Chat group: Taming Kuina, controlling Cynthia

He casually posted an announcement in the group: [[@Everyone who wants to try their hand at the world of culinary disasters, please be mindful of your actions and don't interfere with Little Chef's plans!]]

Tony immediately replied: 【Great idea! We'll take it easy, okay?】

Ip Man and Zhang Sanfeng followed suit, expressing their support.

Gabriel sent a message: 【We're just about to go! Group admin, would you like to come?】

Gu Beichen raised an eyebrow: [Who are you calling "sir"? Want to get a beating again?]

Gabriel immediately backed down: "I'm sorry, okay...?"

Gu Beichen continued, "Once everyone is here, we'll teleport together to avoid messing up their territory."

Little Master, please refrain from participating for now.

】

The young chef responded gratefully: 【Thank you everyone for your understanding!】

Meanwhile, Saeko Busujima, along with Shizuka Marikawa and Rika Minami, successfully integrated into Cynthia and her friends' circle, and the girls got along remarkably well.

In the days that followed, the group embarked on a culinary exploration journey.

From Beijing to Shanghai, from Sichuan and Shaanxi to the north, and even overseas, I have tasted the unique delicacies of various places.

During their journey, at the invitation of Xiao Dangjia, several teams would occasionally go live to share the local delicacies that "660" had tasted with the audience.

Half a month later, the group returned to East G as promised to participate in the God-level swordsmanship duel.

This competition was even more exciting and intense than the original storyline.

In the end, Little Chef won the victory with his outstanding performance, gained the approval of the Eternal Spirit Blade, and exposed the true face of the imposter Rein.

After the match, everyone enjoyed a sea bream dish cooked with the Eternal Spirit Knife before reluctantly bidding farewell to Little Chef and returning to their respective worlds.

"Finally back! It's so comfortable here!"

As soon as she got home, Xiaoxue pounced on the sofa and rolled around contentedly.

She turned on the TV and watched it while sighing with emotion.

Although they brought a laptop and a refrigerator to the ancient world, the living conditions there were ultimately inferior to those in the Pokémon world.

At first, she found it difficult to adjust, and even though she got used to it later, she still feels more comfortable at home.

Why wouldn't you come back when I asked you to?

Gu Beichen walked over with a smile and gently stroked her hair.

"Don't want to waste your points!"

Xiaoxue playfully stuck out her tongue.

"Silly girl, what are these points? Don't make yourself suffer next time."

Gu Beichen gently tapped her forehead.

"Know it!"

Xiaoxue smiled and agreed, but she knew in her heart that she would make the same choice next time.

She appreciated Gu Beichen's thoughtfulness, but she also knew how to maintain appropriate boundaries.

Although the trip was enjoyable, everyone felt a little tired after returning.

After dinner and washing up, I went to bed early.

The next morning, everyone praised the breakfast Xiaoxue had prepared, saying, "It's so delicious! It's almost as good as Xiao Dangjia's cooking!"

"Each has its own unique characteristics!"

"My Xiaoxue is amazing!"

"I'm glad you all like it! I'll make it for you often from now on."

Xiaoxue said happily.

Wasn't all that hard work and study over the past year just for this moment of recognition?

"That's great!"

Gu Beichen responded with a smile.

Breakfast ended amidst laughter and cheerful conversation, and everyone returned to their busy work.

Cynthia went to the Sinnoh League to handle some business, while Sabrina, Yuki, and Cattleya went to the headquarters of the North Star Group.

Karuno was sent back to the Carlos region by Gu Beichen using his teleportation ability, as she also had many Alliance affairs to attend to there.

After seeing the person off, Gu Beichen went to the backyard, watched Lucario and the others train, and opened the chat group.

[Gu Beichen: Good morning, everyone!]

[Kuina: Good morning, group leader! The kendo team is all assembled! Group photo · JPG]

Gu Beichen: Ye Gucheng and Dugu Qiubai have arrived too? They seem quite eager.

Are they getting ready to head to the Grand Line now? The East Blue is too easy for them.

】

[Kuina: Yes!]

[Dugu Qiubai: I can actually stay in the East Sea for a while longer, but Kuina wants a change of scenery.]

We plan to stay in the first half of the Grand Line for six months to give her proper guidance, and then go to the New World to take a look.

】

Ye Gucheng: The environment here is very helpful for physical training. We want to use this time to make up for our shortcomings and cultivate our domineering aura.

Group owner, do you have any plans to integrate domineering aura into your Dao Foundation Technique?

[Kuina: Same question!]

[Dugu Qiubai: Same question!]

Ip Man: Both Observation Haki and Armament Haki are very useful, especially Observation Haki, which can greatly enhance perception.

It would be even better if it could predict the future!

Gu Beichen: I don't have any plans lately. How about I go check out the One Piece world? And maybe I can research the training methods for the three types of Haki.

】

[Kuina: Welcome, group admin brother! ヾ(^ω^)ノ]

Gabriel yawned: "Good morning! But isn't Conqueror's Haki, one of the three types of Haki, only awakened through talent?"

Ye Gucheng chuckled lightly: "That's how it seems on the surface."

But to put it simply, it's just the application of mental strength and willpower; it's not that mysterious.

The so-called theory of talent is simply that no one has yet developed a systematic training method.

Dugu Qiubai nodded in agreement: "Indeed."

This is very similar to momentum and artistic conception.

Given the group leader's comprehension, deduce the cultivation method is not difficult.

Don't forget, he can even break through secret techniques like the Byakugan.

Tony Stark sent a thumbs-up emoji: "Have faith in the group leader! He's top-notch when it comes to comprehension."

Gabriel pouted and sent a helpless emoji.

Gu Beichen replied, "The problem with Conqueror's Haki should be solvable."

I just got back from watching "MasterXiao's World" and need to stay home for a few days to take care of some chores. I'll start studying again in a couple of days.

Actually, he wanted to spend more time with his family and, incidentally, urge Lucario and the others to lose weight—they'd all gotten quite rounder in the two weeks since he'd last seen them.

Kuina immediately replied, "Then it's settled!"

Ip Man interjected, "By the way, Brother Ip, Brother Dugu, I heard you mention before that the One Piece world provides a special boost to body tempering? What are the specific effects?"

Tony Stark and Wong Fei-hung also expressed their curiosity.

Ye Gucheng answered succinctly: "It's about a three-fold increase, and the effect is quite good."

Dugu Qiubai agreed, "That's absolutely right!"

Tony Stark immediately chimed in, "Not just good, it's fantastic! Kuina kept it from us all this time, that's so unfair!"

Gabriel and Saeko Busujima also expressed their agreement.

Kuina explained, feeling wronged, "How can you blame me? I've never practiced body-tempering techniques in other worlds before, how would I know there would be such a big difference?"

Gabriel pressed further, "What about when you went to the world of Master Boy a few days ago? Didn't you find anything unusual there either?"

Yan Lingji also cast a suspicious glance at her.

Guina replied sheepishly, "I was so focused on enjoying the food that I forgot about it."

Gabriel pouted: "An excuse!"

Kuina narrowed her eyes: "Hmm? You have a problem with that? Believe me or not, I won't let you come here anymore?"

Gabriel immediately fell silent.

Just then, system notification sounds rang out one after another:

[Ding! New member "Celestial Spirit Mage"]

Join the chat group

[Ding! New member: "Leader of the World Society"]

Join the chat group

[Ding! New member "The quirky and clever Rong'er"]

Join the chat group

[Ding! New member "Zu Long"]

Join the chat group

[Ding! Chat group upgraded to LV4, new features unlocked: Enlightenment function, group member invitation card, group mini-world]

Gu Beichen's eyes lit up: "Four new people have arrived all at once, and they've even been promoted?"

He carefully reviewed the new member's information:

The Celestial Spirit Mage is Lucy Heartfilia from Fairy Tail, a blonde girl.

The leader of the World Society is clearly Xiong Ba from "Storm Riders".

The quirky and clever Rong'er is the young Huang Rong in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

The most interesting one is the First Emperor, Ying Zheng from "Qin's Moon," who, judging from the timeline, should not have assumed personal rule yet.

Gu Beichen looked at the two newly joined Ying Zhengs in the chat group and found it quite interesting.

One is Ying Zheng from the Qin Dynasty world. Although he has not yet reached his peak, his extraordinary qualities are already evident.

He then began to study the three new features added to the LV4 group chat.

First is the Enlightenment function, which allows you to spend 1000 points to get a 100x enlightenment boost for one hour.

As the group owner, he not only enjoys a 50% discount, but also has one free use opportunity every month.

This pleased him greatly, and he wondered if this amplification effect could be stacked with his talent.

However, this feature can indeed help group members improve their strength faster, since even the best techniques require personal comprehension.

The second is a group member invitation card, priced at 10,000 points. Group owners also enjoy a 50% discount, but only one card is available per month.

Although it was expensive, Gu Beichen felt that he might need it in the future.

He considered inviting one of Cynthia's friends to the group first, so they could stay in touch.

We can bring everyone in once we have enough points...

Finally, there's the upgraded group mini-world feature, which transforms the original virtual space into the real world.

As the group leader, he can set rules here, turn it into a gathering place for group members, or even a cross-world communication center and trade market.
