Chapter 198 - Replica

"Who is your partner, Fairy Fei?" The worker asked her.

Fei Yuyan pointed at Yuan who was still wearing his black jade mask and said, "My partner is a fellow disciple, Yuan."

The worker turned to look at Yuan with raised eyebrows.

’Her partner’s a man? What a lucky bastard,’ The worker cursed at Yuan inwardly, feeling envious.

After writing their names in a logbook, the worker handed them two tokens, both with the number 5163 carved into them.

"These tokens will indicate that you’re partners, and your scores will be added at the end."

When Yuan accepted the token, a notification appeared before him.

<You are now participating in ’Heaven and Earth Zither Competition’>

<Special event: Reach top 3 to receive special rewards>

’Top three, huh? Since I am already trying to achieve third place, this is perfect.’ Yuan smiled inwardly after seeing the notification, wondering what the game will give him for reaching the top 3.

"Now that we’re registered for the competition, we only need to wait for it to start. What do you want to do until then?" Fei Yuyan asked Yuan afterward.

"I would like to go somewhere where I can play the Soul Ensnaring Zither," Yuan responded after pondering for a moment.

"You want to play the zither? What about resting before the competition?" Fei Yuyan looked at him with raised eyebrows.

"I can’t help it. My hands have been itching to play the zither ever since I received the Soul Ensnaring Zither!" Yuan sighed.

"What are you? An addict?" Fei Yuyan shook her head with a hopeless smile on her face.

"Anyway, if you want to play the zither, I know a place, and you can even have an audience there."

"Really? Let’s go." Yuan quickly agreed.

Thus, Fei Yuyan left the gathering area before taking Yuan and the others to this large park in the middle of the city.

However, there were already people playing music in the park. In fact, there were many different instruments being played at the same time, almost like they were competing with each other.

"What’s going on here? Why are there so many people playing instruments here? And wouldn’t it be rude to play when there’s already somebody else playing?" Yuan asked Fei Yuyan.

"Normally that’d be the case, but this place is a little special. Musicians come here to receive recognition, and it’s almost like a competition for the people here to see who has the most audience."

"What do you get for doing such a thing, anyway?" Yuan raised his eyebrows.

"Well, it’s also considered training for many people since your concentration can be easily disturbed in this chaotic atmosphere with so many people playing at once. Getting recognition is just a bonus."

"I see..." Yuan nodded.
