A drop in rating, Ling Yi's conjectures and conclusions

Inside the Blue Hat Army's base, Ling Yi stood atop an abandoned tank, watching Leng Feng and his Old Man Combat, feeling somewhat Bored.

Leng Feng is not weak, and this villain is also quite capable, but it depends on who he's compared to.

At this moment, there was no one alive left in the Blue Hat Army's base except for the three of them.

Despite the corpses scattered all over the ground, Ling Yi felt no discomfort whatsoever.

Ling Yi himself found this somewhat strange.

Perhaps, deep down, Ling Yi felt that these people were NPCs?

Not only did Ling Yi not feel uncomfortable, but the viewers off-camera also didn't feel anything was wrong.

"This villain is much weaker than in the original story," Ling Yi muttered, stroking his chin.

In the original storyline, the villains almost completely overwhelmed Leng Feng, but now Leng Feng is the one dominating the villains, and doing so effortlessly.

Could it be the actor playing the role? It must be.

However, being able to fight Ling Feng for so long, he must be a master in real life, or perhaps a seasoned actor who has redeemed items in the Points Store.

However, his final manner of death was the same as in the original storyline.

The image freezes as Leng Feng shoves a bullet into the throat of the actor playing the villain...

The next moment, Ling Yi's figure appeared in the familiar Chaos Space.

"Congratulations to actor 9527 for completing the Role-Playing Space scene. Scoring is now in progress..."

"Congratulations to actor 9527 for achieving an S-level rating. Due to the longest screen time in 9527's live stream, the rating level increases by 1, and the current rating level is SS."

"Congratulations to actor 9527 for achieving an SS-level rating. Rewards include 3200 points, one Gold Grade treasure chest, and one Role-Player Invitation."

" Role-Playing Space Announcement: Congratulations to player number 9527 for achieving an SS-level rating. Rewards include 3200 points, one Gold Treasure Chest, and one Role-Player Invitation."

" Role-Playing Space announcement..."

" Role-Playing Space announcement..."

"Drawing Luck viewers from 9527 votes... Luck viewers have been drawn, and three invitations have been sent out. Please check your mail."

"The current scene has ended. Please exit the Role-Playing Space within 60 seconds."

The rating has been lowered? And by two levels at that?

Of course, an SS-level rating is not low; it remains something other actors can only look up to.

Ling Yi had some idea of this, after all, even with his cheat-like abilities, he couldn't guarantee that he would get the highest score reward Central City every story scenario.

However, Ling Yi needs to know the reason for the lower score.

After carefully recalling the plot, Ling Yi had a rough guess in his mind.

The plot and scenes do not completely follow the original story; some adjustments have been made to the Role-Playing Space.

As for the extent of this adjustment, we'll have to observe a few more plot scenes to find out.

The Role-Playing Space is like being a movie or TV series director. The set design, extras, bit parts, plot, props, and special effects are all arranged for you, but the actors are not given a script. You are left to improvise.

The better the actors perform, the higher the quality of the work.

If the actors underperform, the outcome is predictable.

The actors' performances are not just about creating drama; they also need to fit the plot and even elevate it.

Just like in the plot of Wolf Warrior 2, Ling Yi did cause a lot of trouble, but there was a lack of plot conflict, and Ling Yi's behavior didn't quite fit the overall plot.

In other words, talent is not the main factor determining the score; it's the acting skills and the fit between the actor and the plot/scene that matter.

Another point is that Ling Yi has a distorted understanding of Role-Playing Space.

This is not a world, but a movie.

While deep in thought, Ling Yi casually opened the Gold Treasure Chest.

Villain Role Free Selection Card: Allows you to freely choose your villain role within story scenarios. This item will automatically disappear after use.

Number 9527!

Points: 12300

Actor's Backpack: Diamond-Rank Identity Card x1, Role-Player Invitation x1, Villain Role Free Selection Card x1.

Cesium horn experience:

2. Scenes from Wolf Warrior 2, the character is a traveler, rating SS! (Click to watch!)

After reviewing his data, Ling Yi thought for a moment and exited the Role-Playing Space.

When Ling Yi came to his senses, he immediately saw Guan Xiaoxiao sitting on the bed wiping away tears.

"Oh dear, why is our fearless Xiaoxiao beauty crying?"

"I was bullied!" Guan Xiaoxiao said, pouting pitifully.

"What happened?" Ling Yi asked, sitting down next to Guan Xiaoxiao.

" Ling Yi, am I... am I really useless?" Guan Xiaoxiao asked Ling Yi, her voice trembling with sobs.

"Are you upset?"

"Um!"

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Guan Xiaoxiao recounted how she was lectured by 1023 and how she was betrayed by 1023.

Ling Yi chuckled, "You believe everything people say? So what if she holds me back? I'm happy to let my Xiaoxiao hold me back. Others can't even do that. Besides, even if you wanted to hold me back, you'd have to be able to actually do it."

"But I want to help you!"

Do you think I need help from others?

"It doesn't seem necessary!"

"Isn't that enough? Just treat the Role-Playing Space as a game; there's no need to take it too seriously."

Ling Yi held Xiaoxiao in his arms; this was the first time Ling Yi had ever held Xiaoxiao on his own initiative.

"I don't need you to be very strong, nor do I need you to achieve great things. You just need to be happy every day. I'll take care of everything else."

Ling Yi's words warmed Xiaoxiao's heart and eased her depressed mood considerably.

"Then I'll work hard too!" Xiaoxiao snuggled into Ling Yi's arms and said, which made Ling Yi's heart itch. Having lived two lives, he almost couldn't control himself.

To be honest, Guan Xiaoxiao is a very easygoing girl; in other words, she's easy to take care of.

She didn't have much ambition or drive; she was content as long as Ling Yi was by her side.

However, this incident did touch Guan Xiaoxiao somewhat, and she ultimately took the Role-Playing Space more seriously.

That's not necessarily a bad thing.

Ling Yi thought for a moment, then swiped his left wrist, and a semi-transparent interface that Role-Playing Space appeared in front of the two of them.

Wow, you've already surpassed 10,000 points!

"What's the use? Besides buying a few Attribute Enhancement Pill, you can't buy anything else. Forget about cultivation techniques, even a simple martial arts manual costs 20,000 points."

As Ling Yi spoke, he spent 700 points to purchase beginner, intermediate, and advanced Attribute Enhancement Pill.

"Open your mouth!" Ling Yi said to Xiaoxiao Xiao.

"You bought this for me!"

"I've already eaten it. You can only eat one of these; eating more won't do any good."

"Oh! Ah..."

Ling Yi directly fed three Attribute Enhancement Pill to Xiaoxiao.

This stuff has almost no flavor, and it melts in your mouth; you Xiaoxiao smack your lips and it's gone.

A warm current surged through Xiaoxiao's body for a few seconds, almost doubling Xiaoxiao own attributes.

In the afternoon, Guan Xiaoxiao unexpectedly received a phone call from her parents.

It turns out that Guan Xiaoxiao's father unexpectedly became Luck audience member and received an invitation, so he canceled his travel plans and returned to Dafeng City ahead of schedule.

My dad wants to give me the invitation, what should I do?

Ling Yi understood Guan Xiaoxiao's meaning. If she told her parents that she was the actress playing the role, then her identity as actress number 1008 would probably be impossible to hide.

Now that we know Guan Xiaoxiao is number 1008, the secret that he is number 9527 is no longer a secret.

In his previous life, Ling Yi was a scoundrel who had witnessed the extreme darkness, so he rarely trusted others easily.

He could trust Guan Xiaoxiao, but Dharma Manifestation Guan Xiaoxiao's parents.

Especially Guan Xiaoxiao's mother, Su Qin, is an extremely snobbish woman, and more importantly, she has had several very unpleasant conversations with Ling Yi.

If someone knew they were number 9527, there's a high chance they would use their personal information to claim the reward.

However, Ling Yi couldn't bring himself to tell Guan Xiaoxiao to keep it a secret from her parents.

No matter how good his relationship with Guan Xiaoxiao is, he cannot sow discord between her and her parents.

Seeing Ling Yi's conflicted expression, Guan Xiaoxiao cupped Ling Yi's cheeks in her two small hands and said, "Don't worry, I know what to do!"

Ling Yi said with a wry smile, "What can you do?"

"I just told them I didn't want to be a performer, and that I would just lock myself in my room when the Role-Playing Space opened."

"I'm sorry to trouble you, but my identity isn't suitable for exposure right now. Let's just postpone it for one more day."

Guan Xiaoxiao left, Ling Yi felt a void in his heart.

"Is it going to resort to clichéd, Third Rate, melodramatic plots? Seriously..."

The internet remains incredibly lively.

Every time the Role-Playing Space ends, a group of experts and professors jump out to offer various analyses.

This time, the most discussed topic is the overall improvement in the ratings of the actors.

Aside from a few unlucky characters like the captain, most of the actors received a D or C rating this time.

In particular, teachers Liu Jianming No. 0898) and Niu Qingyu (No. 0991) Shuangshuang received a grade of B.

It's worth noting that since the emergence of the Role-Playing Space, apart from Ling Yi, who has an unfair advantage, the highest rating has only been B.

Of course, Ling Yi remains the other central figure in the discussion.

As a newcomer, having only participated in the Role-Playing Space twice, achieving an SSS+ rating once and S Grade rating once, coupled with Ling Yi's performance in the Role-Playing Space, the name 9527 has already been imprinted in everyone's minds.

The Dali of Ling Yi, who single-handedly formed an army in Wolf Warrior 2, was particularly awe-inspiring.

Not only domestically, but also internationally, there's discussion about 9527. He's the only actor so far who has come to the forefront and possesses Transcendent powers.

The internet was buzzing with discussion, while Ling Yi was busy figuring out how to make money, and he needed to get a sum of money quickly, otherwise he wouldn't be able to pay next month's rent.

There's no way he'll take a job, and he definitely can't sell his points; he'll keep his identity as an actor hidden for as long as possible.

Being a plagiarist seems like a viable option, but I need to consider what exactly to plagiarize. Firstly, it's a quick and stable way to make money.

Movie script, TV series script?

No, these are the plot scenes in the Role-Playing Space. If I were to plagiarize them, what's the difference between that and spoiling the whole thing?

This is our own advantage, and we must not copy it, at least not now.

Anime, novels? No way. Who knows if the Role-Playing Space will feature related storylines? It hasn't appeared yet, but who knows what might happen in the future?

game?

Forget it, this thing won't turn a profit in the short term. Ling Yi might come up with a plan, but it's useless.

So, what else is left to copy?

Of course he can! He can copy songs!

After making the decision, Ling Yi got busy.

What caught Ling Yi's eye was that this world actually had an Original Song Platform, and this platform was official, guaranteeing copyright and even rating songs according to their quality with clearly marked prices.

This is practically tailor-made for him!

As for not knowing how to compose music? No problem, we'll learn.

Ling Yi Innate the Photographic Memory ability to remember everything he sees, making it easy for him to learn sheet music. He doesn't need advanced music theory knowledge and can master it in one night.

For the next few days, Ling Yi didn't go anywhere; he just stayed home and copied documents.

Using his memories from his previous life, he painstakingly copied a hundred songs and gave himself the code name " Ling Jue ".

After finishing all this, a week has passed exactly...
