Three days passed quickly. During these three days, Ye Zhou spent his time doing light exercise regularly, such as push-ups, sit-ups, squat-jumps and others.
Although this type of exercise didn't allow him to drastically increase his [Physical Strength] talent, but at least by doing this, Ye Zhou's body foundation was at least strengthened.
"Kriiiigggg"
Hearing the sound of the doorbell ringing, Ye Zhou looked at the time in the [Terimnal] and saw that it was already 10 am and then he remembered that it was probably the courier who delivered the Pod Games.
"XiaoBai, please open the door"
XiaoBai then opened the door and it turned out to be right, it was from the courier who delivered the Pod Games, to be more precise, the robot courier.
In the [Interstellar] era, it's no wonder that the couriers are no longer humans but have been replaced by [Smart Robots].
Then Ye Zhou directed the party inside to his room to then let him install the Pod Games with help from XiaoBai.
After 15 minutes, Pod Games was successfully installed and then Ye Zhou asked XiaoBai to take the courier out.
The game "Jianghu: Ancient World" will kick off at exactly 12 noon and there is still over an hour for the public beta to officially launch.
Ye Zhou first went out to the kitchen and then cooked "Lotus Root Soup with Pork Ribs". Since he was planning to enter the game, he guessed that he might miss his lunch, so he planned to fill his stomach first before entering the game.
Well, previously Ye Zhou had purchased materials on the webpage directed by [XingWang]. Although each ingredient costs around 20-100 coins, but at least it's worth it compared to having to consume the nutrient solution every time.
And even though the dishes he made were not at the level of a 5-star chef in his past life, but if his dishes were served to the public in [Interstellar] it deserved praise.
Ye Zhou had to make his own dish, although he could let XiaoBai make it if he told XiaoBai the recipe and steps.
However, XiaoBai was the cheapest version of [Smart Robot] which made it less efficient to do such work. So Ye Zhou didn't let him do it. Ye Zhou was planning to upgrade XiaoBai, if he had earned a lot of coins.
....
After eating and continuing to shower, he glanced at the clock in the [Terminal] and it showed 11:45, less than 15 minutes before the game "Jianghu: Ancient World" officially launched.
Ye Zhou then rechecked the Games Pod and made sure it was properly installed and confirmed the amount of nutrient solution in the compartment. Confirming that it was true, Ye Zhou then lay down on the Games Pod.
Instantly, he slowly felt sleepiness coming from him and Ye Zhou slowly closed his eyes. After that, he found himself in a vacuum with a white background around him.
Then, he saw a holographic screen displaying text accompanied by a cold mechanical sound ringing in his ears.
[Welcome to Jianghu: Ancient World"]
Along with that sound, a screen suddenly appeared that shone on Ye Zhou's entire body. At first Ye Zhou had reflex to dodge it, but the light came quickly.
[Based on retinal and genetic scan results, you are not yet registered as a player. Would you like to register?"]
"Yes"
[Permission confirmed, please wait a while].
While waiting, Ye Zhou then observed and moved his virtual body.
"It's so real," Ye Zhou said in admiration.
[Registration is complete and the game will be officially launched at 12:00. Please wait ]

....
Ye Zhou knew that he had not been able to enter the game. So first of all, it opens up information regarding the basics of the game. In fact, it's not only him who does this, but almost all the players do it.
"Game Systems"
Ye Zhou then fiddled with the holographic screen in front of him and searched for information regarding this game.
Mainland in "Jianghu: Ancient World" is divided into 4 continents namely, the eastern continent, the western continent, the southern continent and the northern continent.
The East Continent is a place for the human race, especially the oriental race. Meanwhile, the West Continent is a place for non-oriental human races to live. Furthermore, the Southern Continent is home to all non-human races, especially [Wild Beast] and [Demoniac Beast]. And the Northern Continent was an unexplored place.
It's not that the East Continent and others don't have [Wild Beast] and [Demoniac Beast], but there are fewer of them than those on the Southern Continent. Only, the area on the East Continent bordering the South Continent had more [Wild Beast] and [Demonian Beast].
Furthermore, the East Continent was divided into several Empires and Small Countries. There were three main powers that existed on the East Continent, namely the Han Empire, the Wei Empire and the Tang Empire. In addition, there are various other small countries.
Among the three major powers, the Tang Empire was the most powerful of all and possessed a high level of martial arts masters. However, the Tang Empire bordered the Southern Continent so it was also an area that was frequently attacked by [Demoniac Beasts]. However, it was because of this that the Tang Empire had more resources than any other region.
Meanwhile, the Han and Wei Empires were almost evenly matched with a slight advantage over the Han Empire.
Players who will later enter the game, are required to choose a novice region and village which will be the beginning of each player's journey.
Seeing this information, Ye Zhou had already set his goal. Although the Tang Empire had abundant resources, but according to his current state, he would choose the Han Empire.
Apart from the information regarding the division of territory, there was also information about the various sects and clans. Both the common ones and the hidden sects.
Each sect is divided into 3 factions, namely the white sect, the neutral sect and the black sect. The white sect is a sect that walks on the right path and shouts good slogans and the black sect is generally a sect that commits arbitrary acts, be it killing and other evil deeds. While the neutral flow, is a flow that is in the middle, which sometimes does good or evil.

[Please enter game name]
"Ye Tian"
Ye Zhou chose the ID "Ye Tian" because he remembered that in the past his family used to call him Ye Tian, because even though he had a sturdy figure, when he was little, he was a sweet and cute person.
Even though he didn't like the name before, now he missed it a bit.
[Unused ID, confirmed!]
[Please select your race]
[Human] [Beast (Locked)]
"What is the point of this game asking to choose a race, even though the beast race is still locked and only the human race can be selected(?)"
Ye Zhou was slightly amused by the system asking him to choose when there was only one choice left.
"Man"
[Race confirmed. Are you going to customize the appearance?(Note: max 20% customization]
"Not. Adjust to the original appearance"
[Selection confirmed. Please select your first region]
"Han Empire"
[Choice confirmed, you will be transferred to the beginner village (random)]
[You will be transferred to Green Misty Forest Village]
"Fuck!!!"
Ye Zhou did not expect that the novice village he was going to live in would be moved randomly. Whereas previously, according to the information he read, there were 10 choices of beginner villages in each Empire. And the territory of Green Misty Forest Village, is not included in the ten beginner villages.
Along with Ye Zhou's curse, he found himself pulled into a dark void.
