Chapter 219 Reaching the Summit

I didn’t expect Mr. Genkiyo to be so good at writing passionate battle plots. ♦♦  ♦♦

Of course, the plot of this chapter goes beyond that. Kirito desperately saved Asuna, and finally allowed this gentle but strong-hearted girl to open her heart to him.

After Grandpa Kirito wakes up, Asuna throws herself into her arms and cries.

From God's perspective, this is a hero saving a beauty from a bad street.

But the problem is that the portrayal of both the male protagonist Kirito and the female protagonist Asuna is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Such a hero's emotion of saving the beauty is well laid out, and the readers seem to be throbbing in their hearts.

Ah, the heroine Asuna is really cute.

Moreover, because Asuna fell in love with the male protagonist and expressed her intention to form a team with him, she was blocked by the team leader Heathcliff.

If Kirito can beat him in a duel, he agrees to let Kirito take Asuna, the deputy leader of their union, away.

The plot of this chapter ends in an extremely maddening place.

After Song Yujie read it, she smiled slightly, took a deep breath, and muttered to herself.

"Don't be angry, you are used to it, aren't you? If you are angry, you will fall into the trap of the old thief Yuan Qing."

However, after a few minutes

"How can you not be angry! Wouldn't it be better for you to write an extra thousand or two thousand words in the serial to finish the duel between these two people?" A woman's angry voice sounded in the room.

This chapter can be said to be the first famous scene in the work Sword Art Online.

The appearance of Grandpa Kirito's Starburst Air Slash made countless Sword Art Online fans completely fall in love with the story in the parallel world, and they were completely sucked into it.

Similarly, in the Dragon Kingdom light novel world, after this chapter was serialized, the emotions of all novel fans were ignited.

If it were just a textual description in a novel, it might not have such powerful rendering power.

But with the addition of Mo Ran's illustrations, it's different.

"Uh oh oh oh! Show me this exciting chapter."

"Starburst Air Slash is really handsome! I can't wait to play the game SAO."

"It's a pity that I can only watch the protagonist play in the novel. Damn it, Mr. Genkiyo."

"Damn it, until now when I read this novel, I don't want to play the game in reality at all. I only dream about entering the sao to drive away "Grandpa Kirito" and snatch "Asuna" away."

"Haha, if you go to the game, you will probably fall to death because of triggering the damage judgment because of jumping down the stairs."

"Ah, I can't sleep at night, I want to read the next chapter of Sword Art Online, I want to read the next chapter!"

"Teacher Yuanqing knows how to break chapters. When he breaks them, I have to wait for another week."

"The relationship between Asuna and Grandpa Kirito is really well portrayed in this chapter. They let things take their own course, without the awkward feeling in other novels at all. I took on Grandpa Kirito's perspective and the plot felt like I was getting to know Asuna. It’s like knowing each other and meeting each other.”

"I'm already imagining the scene where I use Starburst Air Slash and capture the heart of Asuna's wife."

"Long live my wife Asuna, the old thief Yuanqing will go to hell."

"Are there any Minotaur lovers who want the leader of the Knights to blast Kirito and steal Asuna from Kirito? I really like this novel, but it is a pure love novel. It doesn’t look interesting, what should I do if I just like the Minotaur plot?”

Late at night, as the plot discussion of this chapter of Sword Art Online was fermenting, the discussion topics in Xia Yan's comment area and Liuli Book Club's official website gradually went off the rails.

But on the other hand, according to Liuli Publishing House’s internal novel popularity voting statistics, Sword Art Online’s performance far exceeded previous performances.

The next day, inside Liuli Bookstore.

Baixuan also received the inside information and came to the book club early to wait for the results to be released.

On the other side, Song Lingjun's manager Shu Mei came up to communicate with Baixuan.

For example, if Song Lingjun's new novel wants to capitalize on the popularity of "Sword Art Online" and "Xia Yan" and engage in bundled marketing, in addition to Xia Yan's consent, the person directly responsible for the work must also agree with "Bai Xuan".

The fact that Baixuan was so easy to talk to at first made Shu Mei change her view of Baixuan greatly.

"I feel like Sword Art Online has a great chance of reaching the top in this issue!"

Shu Mei is also a beautiful woman with excellent appearance, tall and tall. When she speaks, her voice is gentle.

"Everywhere, things change speed before they are settled." Although Baixuan thought so too, she had to be modest in her words.

The difference in reader votes between Sword Art Online and Crimson Abyss was only 300 votes last week.

Even though Crimson Abyss’ agents and authors have used all available resources to keep their first pick, the trend is irreversible.

Sword Art Online has great potential in the light novel market. The book club's promotion can only be said to be the icing on the cake. The general trend is like this. Crimson Abyss's struggle is just in vain.

"You have to be high-minded, Bai Xuan. Although Yuan Qing did not sign a long-term contract with the book club, he is still willing to stay in the book club and write. I can only say that for a discerning person, playing the emotional card is much more useful than playing the contract card. ." Shu Mei smiled.

"You're not bad either! Song Lingjun's potential is obvious to all. Each of her works is better than the last. She is still in the rising period of her creative career. Although she can't compare with Yuan Qing for the time being, who knows how many years it will take to What will happen in the next year? She is also very young, so she may not be suppressed by Xia Yan for the rest of her life. You signed a three-year contract with her, but she actually has a good vision." Bo Xuan also treated Shu Mei politely.

In the office hall, Meng Lin felt very uncomfortable listening to these discussions.

That year, after the New God Ascension event, she was the first person that the book club arranged to contact Xia Yan and Song Lingjun.

However, her idea of ​​at least asking the two to sign a long-term contract of more than seven years was rejected by the two. They thought that they would let the two of them hang out for a few months and wait for them to face reality.

But unexpectedly, both of them found other partners within the book club.

Nowadays, Song Lingjun's new work is serialized in "Liuli".

Xia Yan is even more powerful. There is a high probability that this issue of "Liuli" will top the list.

What do you want to say about Meng Lin's feelings?

That is naturally disgusting. Sword Art Online is so popular, and the commission of the agent is also considerable.

She wanted to pursue the greatest benefits, but in the end she found that she had lost the basic market.

But she still had to pretend to be calm and chat and laugh with her colleagues.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the ranking list of readers' votes for this issue of "Liuli" was released.

A group of agents of novel writers in the book club and editors in the editorial department were paying attention to relevant information on different floors.

Sword Art Online, votes, 2751234 votes, voting order, first.

Crimson Abyss, votes 1532144 votes, voting order second.

Absolute World, votes 231451 votes, voting order, seventh.

The novel with the lowest voting order is Xia Feng, with 12435 votes.

Bai Xuan and Shu Mei couldn't help but smile after seeing the list information.

Meng Lin, her expression was normal, and she looked no different from usual, but her slightly trembling mouth showed her inner unrest.

What is more uncomfortable than losing a hundred yuan?

It's that a hundred yuan fell at your feet, but someone else ran over to pick it up first.

The former is uncomfortable for a day, and the latter is uncomfortable for a lifetime!

In Xia Yan's villa, Xia Yan and Song Lingjun were both waiting for the news of their works' voting order this week.

At almost the same time, both of them received calls from their agents.

"Seventh? This result? Oh, so the seventh is in the Liuli Journal, which is a pretty good first-issue ranking result in the new serialized novel?" Song Lingjun nodded and said softly.

"Really? First place." Xia Yan smiled, then put down the phone, and happened to see Song Lingjun's eyes on him.

"Congratulations" Song Lingjun paused slightly, and in addition to showing an unyielding expression on his face, he also showed a touching smile.

Coincidence, or fate.

The issue when Xia Yan's Sword Art Online topped the journal happened to be the issue where Song Lingjun's new novel was serialized.

This information, along with the Liuli Book Club's announcement on the same day, also became a topic of discussion among fans.

After all, Liuli Book Club marketed the two as a talented girl chasing Yuanqing.

Now Xia Yan's novel Sword Art Online has topped the list.

Wanting to catch up with Xia Yan's footsteps, doesn't that mean that Song Lingjun's goal has passively become to top Liuli?
