The power of elemental transformation is strong, but it’s by no means invincible.
Just Ordinary Group Admin: “Yeah, that does make sense.”
Just Ordinary Group Admin: “But I still feel like it’s a bit over the top. How did he even manage to live that long?”
If it really was the Dugu Qiubai from before the Condor era, then there’s not much to say. But in a martial arts world, how on earth did he survive for so long?
Child of Nature: “Who knows? But martial arts worlds aren’t necessarily without means of achieving immortality.”
Child of Nature: “Or maybe Dugu Qiubai made a new breakthrough in the way of the sword, which extended his lifespan.”
Invincible East: “Probably.”
Invincible East: “I just think my master’s power is a little beyond what I imagined.”
Dongfang Bai didn’t really care which era Dugu Qiubai belonged to. She only knew that her master would always be her master, and that was enough.
She’d never given much thought to immortality in the past, and now that she had the chat group, she thought about it even less.
If she wanted eternal life, all she needed was ten thousand points to buy one year of lifespan.
Even if she only relied on the daily check-in feature, with a bit of luck she could scrape together ten thousand points in a year. And that’s not even counting all the martial arts manuals she’d collected.
Himouto Umaru: “Speaking of which, is the world of Tendou Souji part of a series?”
Himouto Umaru: “The memory file is called Kamen Rider, right? Aren’t there other shows with different Kamen Riders as the main characters?”
Just Ordinary Group Admin: “Yeah, there are, and quite a few.”
Just Ordinary Group Admin: “But I haven’t watched many of them. Most of the ones I’ve seen are from the Heisei era.”
Just Ordinary Group Admin: “It’s worth mentioning that Tendou Souji might not be the strongest Kamen Rider out there, but he’s definitely the best at showing off.”
Tendou Souji: “…”
Lighthouse’s Richest Man: “I feel like Tendou and Daigo are pretty similar. They both fight monsters—except one fights kaiju, and the other fights worms. And they both transform—one into a Kamen Rider, the other into Ultraman.”
Lighthouse’s Richest Man: “Though, Tendou starts out at max level, while Daigo grows slowly over time.”
Lighthouse’s Richest Man: “But overall, they both protect the people and save the world.”
Boil Daigo into Soup: “I guess I’m kind of starting at max level now too.”
Thanks to the points he’d earned from recycling the two giant statues and the monster corpses, he’d bought quite a few things from the shop.
Boxing, Muay Thai, Jeet Kune Do—even Uchiha Madara’s taijutsu techniques, plus the Sage’s Body and the Sharingan. In terms of being a human host, surely there was no one stronger than him, right?
As for Tendou Souji’s other skills—including his cooking—well, he was a bit lacking there. But with enough points, he could buy those too if he wanted.
Still, he had no intention of becoming a second Tendou Souji, even though he did enjoy watching Tendou’s show-off moments.
Should I try pointing one finger at the sky?
The thought crossed Daigo’s mind, but he quickly shot it down.
People are different. He just couldn’t bring himself to say those kinds of lines as easily as Tendou Souji could.
It’d be way too embarrassing.
Just Ordinary Group Admin: “Come to think of it, ever since the group shop opened, have all of you gotten a lot stronger?”
Just Ordinary Group Admin: “Before, the strongest in the chat group was probably Daigo after he transformed into Tiga. Is it still Daigo now? Selling monster corpses seems like a pretty good way to earn points.”
Lighthouse’s Richest Man: “Why don’t you ask me?”
Just Ordinary Group Admin: “???”
Just Ordinary Group Admin: “Did you partner up with Wakanda or something? No, that doesn’t seem right.”
Just Ordinary Group Admin: “Did I send out the Black Panther memory file? I don’t remember doing that at all.”
Lighthouse’s Richest Man: “???”
Lighthouse’s Richest Man: “What I was trying to say is that I’m one of the poorest people in this chat group.”
Lighthouse’s Richest Man: “Black Panther? Wakanda?”
Lighthouse’s Richest Man: “Group Admin, I think we need to have a good talk. You absolutely need to send me all the storylines from my world—including this Black Panther one.”
Aside from the Iron Man storyline, almost every other plot point had only been mentioned by the group admin in passing during conversations.
Like that thing about the purple raisin and the Infinity Stones.
She hadn’t sent a single specific memory file about any of it!
Just Ordinary Group Admin: “Hehehe, next time for sure.”
Child of Nature: “In terms of points, the number one spot should be Angel Yan.”
Child of Nature: “As the current crown princess of the Angel civilization, the resources she has access to are beyond our imagination. And if I’m not mistaken, those points aren’t just being used on her alone—they’re also being funneled into the entire Angel civilization.”
Child of Nature: “If Shiba Inu Thor sold some stuff from the One Hundred Thousand Bad Jokes world, then it’d be a different story.”
Child of Nature: “As for an actual power ranking, the strongest in the chat group right now is Thor, with Angel Yan coming in second.”
Child of Nature: “Third place should be Daigo. As for fourth, I’m not sure.”
Child of Nature: “It’s hard to gauge the current strength of Uchiha Madara, Whitebeard, and Kurumi.”
Child of Nature: “If lifespan could be recycled, then Kurumi’s power would be even greater. But unfortunately, it can’t.”
Otherwise, you could totally exploit a loophole with the Dog Talisman.
But the chat group wouldn’t leave such a blatant bug in the system.
Lighthouse’s Richest Man: “After all, she’s being personally cultivated by a top-tier cosmic civilization. If her growth were slow, that’d be way too unrealistic.”
Lighthouse’s Richest Man: “As for that dog… well, fine. It is a gag anime.”
Glory of the Northern Gods: Shiba Inu grinning evilly.jpg
Glory of the Northern Gods: “You’re worse than a dog.”
Lighthouse’s Richest Man: “Dammit!”
Lighthouse’s Richest Man: “You know what? I really want to beat you up now!”
Lighthouse’s Richest Man: “You just wait, you stupid Shiba Inu!”
Tony Stark felt like he and that Shiba Inu just didn’t get along. Ever since that time it interrupted him right after he joined the group, he’d had it out for that mutt.
If it weren’t for the fact that the Shiba Inu actually had some skills, he’d definitely suit up in his armor and challenge him to a fight.
Hmph!
I can’t beat this Thor, but surely I can beat the Thor from my world, right?
When that time comes, I’m going to give him a real beating!
Meanwhile, in Asgard, Thor had no idea that he’d already been marked by someone just because of his name—and that later on, his own actions would lead to him getting thoroughly thrashed.
Just Ordinary Group Admin: “Anyway, as long as we have the chat group, everyone’s power will definitely keep growing.”
Just Ordinary Group Admin: “It’s just that everyone’s pace is different.”

In a high-martial-arts world.
Su Yunqing rested her chin on her hand. Her current strength was far too weak.
Sure, she was considered fairly decent among the younger generation in this small place, but compared to the top prodigies from the big cities, the gap was just way too wide.
Forget about dominating her generation—even just keeping up with them was a struggle.
Of course, she was confident that with the chat group’s help, she’d catch up and surpass them quickly enough. But those people weren’t her real goal.
Her real goal was the members of the chat group themselves.
