Liu Jingxu was a scholarly player who was obsessed with card research. Usually he didn't care about every big club's gossip. Even if some big events had happened and were well known by everyone, he still gave a "what happened" face. In addition, he was also the one who always lurked in the group chat and never said anything. As long as things didn't concern the Ghost Hell Club, he wouldn't bother to think about it even if the outside world was turned upside down.

But at that moment he had to pay attention to the recent IDE card event——because the card [Sha Wujing] directly aimed at his whole demon card set!

What made the demon cards strong and powerful was that all demon cards were dual-shaped, which meant that they were unpredictable and it was hard to kill them instantly.

However, the appearance of [Sha Wujing] completely changed the situation. The skill, "Staff Quelling Demons", could trigger the instant death effect on demon cards no matter which shape it was in, human or demon. A master player just needed to summon Sha Wujing at the critical moment and instantly kill his key cards, such as fox demon and cat demon, then his game tempo would be entirely broken, and his control chain would be destroyed.

Liu Jingxu frowned, carefully observing the card, [Sha Wujing].

When seeing him being deep in meditation, Gui Sirui couldn't resist asking, "Brother Xu, do you have any ideas to crack it?"

The Ghost Hell Club didn't have professional card designers, and the superintendent of designing cards was Liu Jingxu. He was in charge of the card arrangement as well as the card pool setting every time there was a group race because of his comprehensive understanding of cards. The problem was that he was a typical slowpoke who always reacted slowly. He was suddenly lost in thought as if his spirit had already left him, and of course he didn't listen to Xiao Gui at all.

Gui Sirui continued to call him, "Brother Xu? Can you hear me? Hello?"

Liu Sirui kept thinking, bowing his head......

Gui Sirui helplessly looked at his Shifu who asked with a puzzled look, "I wonder how the skill, Cao Chong Weighing an Elephant, is going to work. How about this, you first upgrade the three cards to the maximum level, then we can try them in the Arena."

Gui Sirui wanted to test the actual effect of these cards too, so he called the president of the Ghost Hell Club right away in order to directly use the club's materials to upgrade the cards.

The two people turned away and went to seat themselves in the training room. After putting on their helmets, they logged into the game.

At that time, Liu Jingxu finally regained consciousness, "I just thought of an idea......Wait. Where is everybody?"

He looked around, his face puzzled. Then he realized that Lao Zheng and Xiao Gui were not around. The president saw his bewildered face and didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Brother Xu, they went to the training room. The boss said he wanted to test the actual effect of those cards."

"Okay." Liu Jingxu responded briefly, then he immediately turned in order to follow their steps.

In the training room, Zheng Feng and Gui Sirui had just occupied an Arena in the Phoenix galaxy. As usual, the code was 7895.

Liu Jingxu logged into the game and found the two's Arena in his buddy list, then he input the code to watch their game. At that time they had already started to battle, with Xiao Gui holding [Cao Chong] targeting his Shifu and Lao Zheng holding [Zhong Kui] targeting the ghost cards.
In the beginning, Xiao Gui randomly summoned a Hanged Ghost. Accordingly, Zheng Feng immediately applied [Zhong Kui]'s skill, Hunting Ghosts——Zhong Kui opened his Qiankun Bag and directly pushed Xiao Gui's Hanged Ghost into the bag.
