Chapter 660: Grinding God!

Chapter 660: Grinding God!

Just as Su Yang was confused, a building similar to a circus’s tent slowly appeared within the darkness.

Su Yang immediately understood. ‘It seems like all nine souls have been gathered in the circus! No wonder it’s suddenly dragged me in.’

Sure enough, as Su Yang thought about this, he heard a notification.

[9 guests have arrived at the Burning Reincarnation Circus. Please welcome them.]

At the same time, a path of light appeared under Su Yang’s feet and extended all the way into the circus.

Su Yang arrived at the circus with ease. Just like before, he appeared in the middle of the circus stage.

At the same time, the first row of the circus was lit up with nine people sitting in the first row. They were looking at the circus stage in confusion, where Su Yang stood.

Since Su Yang had prior experience, he was not surprised at all. He knew that these nine people were the backup actors that the circus had recruited for him.

These guests had died within one kilometer from where the circus was and they had a strong desire to live.

Su Yang sized them up and realized that the actors this time were all men. Among the nine of them, there were seven middle-aged men and two young men, with not a single no old man.

This once again proved the sad fact that the middle-aged men most likely did not want to die...

After sizing up everyone present, Su Yang clapped his hands and attracted the attention of a few people below the stage. He asked, “Are any of you from the finance or stock trading industry?”

As the most different person out of the 10 people present, Su Yang had already attracted the attention of the nine people below. Hence, the moment he opened his mouth, he immediately took control of the entire flow of the conversation.

The nine of them looked up at him and answered in confusion.

“No.”

“I’m not.”

“Neither am I.”

Since most of the nine people said “no”. Su Yang could not help but feel disappointed.

‘Looks like none of the recruited actors fits my requirement.’

But just as he thought the circus’s recruitment of actors was likely to be in vain, a bespectacled young man in plaid raised his hand weakly and said, “I... I worked at a stock trading company.”

Su Yang’s eyes lit up. “Are you a trader?”

The man shook his head weakly.

Su Yang asked, “Then you...”

The young man said, “I was an admin officer. I helped to organize information in the company.”

Su Yang was speechless.

‘Does that count as working in a stock trading company though?!

‘If I were to sweep the floor in Huawei, can I also say that I work in the cellphone industry?’

Su Yang was thoroughly disappointed.

Due to his disappointment, he was not as enthusiastic about these nine people as he had been the last time. Hence, he only told them the whole story as per normal and said that he was willing to give them a chance to be revived.

However, they had to fight for the opportunity to revive themselves. Furthermore, after reviving, they had to recognize Su Yang as their master and work for him.

Even though Su Yang’s conditions were harsh, no one would choose death if they were not being forced to die.

After all, there was a great terror between life and death. Unless the person had yet to enjoy living their lives or have already lived long enough, it was not a border that a normal person would cross.

Hence, a few of them agreed right away. They were willing to be actors in Su Yang’s circus and work for him.

In fact, none of the nine people had raised a bunch of doubts like the previous batch. ‘I wonder if it’s because of the stressful lifestyle in Hong Kong that is making them too scared to resist me.

‘Of course, it could also be because there aren’t many hotheads who have yet to live their lives yet...’

After recruiting them to be actors, Su Yang did the same thing the last time. He asked them to recite the ‘incantation’ for [A Talent Printer That Likes To Jog] and obtained their resumes.

After that, Su Yang dismissed this time’s recruitment in the circus.

After returning to the real world, Su Yang did not head out to Hong Kong to collect the [Burning Reincarnation Circus].

After all, there were no experts in stock trading this time, so Su Yang had to continue his recruitment.

As for the number of stars this batch of people had, Su Yang no longer held any hope in them.

Hence, he got Little Deeny to call Janet so that he could ask the latter to carry [A Talent Printer That Likes To Jog] to the courtyard and do his backflips. In fact, Su Yang did not even go to take a look after that.

Instead, he took the opportunity to continue reading “Dawn Blossoms Plucked At Dusk”.

Every time he finished reading a book, he would receive a virtual server that automatically created special effects. Hence, Su Yang’s desire to read was truly soaring at that moment!

After Su Yang read more than twenty pages and was engrossed in Lu Xun’s book, Janet returned with a dozen resumes.

He knocked on the door expressionlessly and said to Su Yang, “Master, the resumes have been printed.”

Su Yang hummed in acknowledgment. Then, he stood up and took the resume from Janet before flipping through it.

In reality, it was not beyond Su Yang’s expectations. This group of nine people was indeed not as good as the nine people that were recruited previously in Shanghai.

‘There’s not even a 2-star talent among these people.

‘Actually, to be more precise, there’s only one of them in here that has a 1-star talent, while the others have no stars at all.’

Because he did not have much hope, Su Yang skimmed through the resumes of these people. Their evaluations were not high and they did not have much potential. Su Yang could not help but shake his head, lamenting that Asia’s Big Five from back then had also fallen.

However, this was how the world was.

No country or city would continue to thrive forever and even the White Dragon that’s flying around on the south bank will gradually weaken, while the massive dragon in the east was still slowly soaring up in the air.

Hence, Su Yang put the resumes aside and continued reading.

This time, with no one disturbing him, he could see much more easily.

Soon, two hours passed. As Su Yang finished reading “Dawn Blossoms Plucked At Dusk”, a system notification popped up in his head.

[Beep! You’ve seriously finished reading “Dawn Blossoms Plucked At Dusk”, received a virtual special effects server.]

Following the notification, Su Yang lowered his hand and a multi-purpose plug appeared in his hand. There was a USB socket on it and all kinds of computer plug-ins. It looked like he had to insert something into it.

Su Yang tried to connect it to a portable hard drive and an operating panel appeared before him.

The interface showed the contents of the hard drive.

Coincidentally, there was a short movie inside. Hence, after Su Yang clicked on the short movie, a lot of data appeared on his screen. There were various requirements for special effects.

After watching the movie for a while, Su Yang found a place where special effects could be done. Then, with a thought, all the parameters got filled in automatically.

Then, Su Yang chanted, “Begin.”

Immediately, the virtual server started operating.

In less than half an hour, the special effects were completed.

Since Su Yang only requested for there to be more blood in the 10-second shot, the special effects were simple and the production time was short.

However, it was because it was so simple that the capabilities of the special effects were tested.

Su Yang took a closer look at the scene and realized that... ‘This looks exactly like real blood.

‘If I haven’t confirmed that there was no blood in this movie to begin with, I would’ve suspected that this blood was originally included during the filming.’

Instantly, Su Yang understood how amazing this special effects automated server was!

Also... He realized how amazing his special effects skills were as well.

He was like a magician who could create something that did not exist in the world. He could turn something rotten into something magical!

With the stimulation from the first machine, Su Yang also relaxed his limbs and continued to read. Then, he took out a second book, “Candle In The Tomb: The Ruins Of One Ancient City” from Little Deeny’s box.

‘Right... Now that I’m done reading a prose, let’s adjust my mood by reading a ghost story.’

Hence, Su Yang spent the next few days reading.

In order to give himself enough time to read, he even activated the [Three Days Without Sleep Halo] and had only slept for four hours every day, while he spent the rest of his time reading.

Apart from that, the people around Su Yang noticed the change in Su Yang.

After all, this was a huge change. Su Yang was reading while eating, bathing and even while accompanying Chu Xia as she wrote her novels. In fact, he was even reading while sitting in the car...

That’s right. In order to give himself time to study, Su Yang did not even drive his car and got Pan Zhaodi to pick him up from work every day instead.

Hence, his neglect of food and sleep scared Chu Xia.

One time, Chu Xia looked up from writing her novel. When she saw that Su Yang was still reading, she could not help but walk over and pat his head. She asked, “Are you... Prepping for university?”

Su Yang slapped her hand away and snapped, “I’m already a university student, okay? Why don’t you ask if I’m prepping for a postgraduate course?”

Chu Xia said, “I feel like... Even graduate students don’t have to work so hard.”

At the same time, Tang Jing noticed Su Yang’s abnormality. Initially, she thought that Su Yang had been under a lot of pressure recently and had to read non-stop to enrich himself.

But very quickly, when she realized that Su Yang was reading prose, novels and even serious literature, she thought that Su Yang might have... Failed his studies.

She used to study finance, so she did not know what Su Yang was learning in the liberal arts university.

However, it seemed like these prose and novels were very compatible with the style of liberal arts universities.

It seemed normal for the liberal arts universities to teach these things.

On top of that, Su Yang had been reading all these books ever since the exams. No matter how one looked at it, it would seem like he had failed his studies.

However, no matter what others thought, Su Yang refused to let go of the book. He was practically a grinding God and could grind through five to six books a day.

Similarly, he had more and more virtual servers and the speed of him making special effects increased as well.

When Su Yang stopped to read and rest, he even took Guo Fan’s design drawings and got the servers to create a 100 frame of special effects that were three seconds each.

Even though there was not enough time and servers, the quality was still not exceptional yet. However, the sophistication of the servers could be seen. ‘Almost all the details are here, the only thing that’s missing is enough time for rendering.’

Hence, Su Yang was motivated to work harder.

While Su Yang worked hard for almost a week and accumulated more than 30 virtual servers, Little Deeny found Su Yang and told him about something else...
