After looking through them all, Chu Yao found that her nickname, "Choosing a Name Is So Hard," stood out as utterly plain and boring. It gave off the air of a salted fish who had given up after a failed struggle. It was ridiculously lame!

It didn't fit her domineering image as the supreme ruler of the demonic path (former) and an Innate Sword Physique (current) at all!

Argh! She was so mad!

If she'd known, she would have held out a little longer and tried something like "The Universe's Number One Pretty Girl Warrior"!

Was it too late to regret it now?!

Chu Yao wanted to pound her chest and stamp her feet, then unleash a combo of punches on the stone wall of her cave abode to vent.

But just as her inner drama was in full swing and she was baring her teeth at thin air, a... red envelope suddenly popped up in the group without warning?!

The red envelope icon was pixel art too, but its golden color stood out on the crude gray-blue interface.

A line of small text floated above it: [The luckiest recipient becomes the group owner.]

Group owner? This lousy group had a group owner?

And whoever got the luckiest draw from the red envelope got to be one? Just like that?!

Chu Yao perked up at once, all thoughts of how lame her nickname was forgotten.

The group owner! That meant admin privileges!

Maybe she could kick people out (like a certain someone who had taken her nickname), mute them, or even grab more red envelopes?

She immediately took a deep breath, as if preparing for some sacred ritual. She used her divine sense to conjure two little hands, rubbed them together with exaggerated vigor, then jabbed viciously at the pixel red envelope with lightning speed!

"Whoosh—pop! Whoosh, crackle, pop—!"

The familiar, eye-searing pixel fireworks filled the interface again, bursting with such merriment that they seemed to be celebrating some momentous occasion.

Immediately afterward, two system notification boxes popped up one after the other: [Congratulations, host. You received a storage ring with a capacity of one thousand cubic meters and had the luckiest draw.]

Chu Yao's eyes lit up.

Mwah, mwah, mwah, wasn't her luck just too good?!

Besides... a storage ring? One thousand cubic meters? Not bad! It was a useful item.

Though grabbing the red envelope had been ridiculous, the reward was practical!

But before she could finish celebrating, the second notification box followed: [Congratulations, host. You stepped in dog shit and became the group owner.]

Chu Yao: "..."

Hey! System, did it know how to talk?! What did it mean, she'd stepped in dog shit?!

I earned this through my own ability... All right, it really was luck.

But couldn't you put it more tactfully?! Like "blessed with the fortune of a chosen daughter," or something?!

She resisted the urge to complain about the system's wording, her attention immediately drawn to her newly acquired group owner privileges.

After becoming the group owner, she found that the formerly grayed-out "Group details" page had lit up!

Let's see what features this group owner has! Is there a one-click kick button? A forced name-change card? Hehehe...

Chu Yao rubbed her hands together and eagerly reached toward the newly unlocked page with her divine sense, a smile of excitement, curiosity, and a hint of ill intent spreading across her face.

Her divine sense eagerly entered the newly unlocked group details page.

But when she saw what was displayed, the smile on her face instantly stiffened, as if frozen solid.

Chu Yao: ???

She took a deep breath, then another, forcibly swallowing the beautiful Chinese words that had nearly slipped out and would have made her eldest senior sister rush in and spank her on the spot. Her gaze remained fixed on the group members' levels:

(Western fantasy magic) Forbidden Spell Wholesaler, level 6 (Sci-fi apocalypse) Abyss Lord, level 8 (Ancient low-martial world) How Lonely It Is to Be Invincible! Level 4 (Primitive tribe) Lord of the Wilderness, level 9 (Interstellar wasteland) Above the Nine Heavens, level 5 (PS: Chu Yao's gaze lingered here for two extra seconds, filled with killing intent) (Modern urban world) Everything Can Be Bought, level 3

And she herself—(Magic cultivation) Choosing a Name Is So Hard, level 1!

So after all that, I'm the only level-one noob here, even though I'm the group owner?!

What kind of world is this?! A bunch of high-level players are holed up in my newbie village group?

Does that make sense?! Is it scientific?! Does it conform to the basic laws?!
