Playing cards, I am your ancestor!-Chapter 345: Joining Divine Punishment

"Beautiful!"

The moment after the match, Song Yi high-fived everyone.

Although the Guiqing Association wasn’t as powerful as them, it was still a major association, and this was their first encounter in battle, with his second brother on the opposing side.

Winning so decisively made Song Yi naturally happy.

When he reached Wen Jiang, Wen Jiang gave him a slight glance, leaving Song Yi to purse his lips in disappointment, then bypassed Wen Jiang to high-five the coach.

"Every time you use a card, you make me see you in a new light. No matter what card it is, in your hands, it always seems to radiate new vitality."

Du Zhaiyue marveled at Wen Jiang’s unmatched talent in creating and using cards.

"It’s okay, thank you for the compliment."

Wen Jiang slightly curved his lips, glanced at Song Yingchen on the opposite side who now looked slightly despondent, and turned away.

Zero Egg cackled madly: [Your grandson lost to you, must be both angry and anxious inside.]

Wen Jiang: [Don’t go crazy. A single match isn’t enough to deal a heavy blow to him.]

Moreover, the reason wasn’t even him.

Song Yingchen’s ambiguous gaze caught Wen Jiang glancing at him, then leaving without any hesitation.

His expression gradually returned to its usual indifference from the initial coldness.

The assassin nearby hung his head and apologized to his teammates: "Sorry, I was too impulsive this time, which affected the match outcome."

This was a qualifying match, not yet in the formal tournament, so his teammates weren’t too harsh: "It’s okay. In situations like that, misjudging is easy."

However, Coach Guiqing frowned a little: "We’ll conduct a review later."

The assassin wore a bitter face, knowing he couldn’t escape this reprimand.

Being the main reason, he wondered how badly he was being scolded online.

Of course, the online community had harshly criticized Guiqing.

A loss is a loss, and making excuses appeared pointless.

The chaotic war between fans and haters had become the norm online. This time it was spiced up by the personal grudge between Wen Jiang and Song Yingchen, making it extremely entertaining.

Listening to Zero Egg’s mad laughter, Wen Jiang could guess how many points she earned this time.

Winning against Guiqing wasn’t surprising, but compared to this match, Sanctuary had more for Wen Jiang to focus on.

For example, her intention to join the Divine Punishment Association.

She met Karin at an auction, which meant the Blood Emperor was aware of her presence.

Considering the previous grudge, Wen Jiang didn’t think the Blood Emperor would let it go.

But she was certain the Blood Emperor wouldn’t act so quickly.

He’s UR rank, and in the Sanctuary territory, other UR rank Spirit Card Masters would detect him, and the Holy Hall Association wouldn’t stand idly by.

So there was no need to worry about the Blood Emperor coming to Sanctuary personally.

Only whether he would keep sending people to harass ’Helena.’

Thus, joining the Divine Punishment Association seemed quite important.

"You want to join our Divine Punishment?"

The manager of the Divine Punishment Association, Johnny, was very surprised.

Actually, Helena’s personal strength was one thing, but her powerful card-making ability was what the Divine Punishment Association truly valued.

"That’s certainly not a problem!" Johnny struggled to keep the corners of his mouth from turning up: "Is it as a competitor or a Card Maker..."

"As a Card Maker," Wen Jiang raised the corners of her lips: "But if needed, I think I’ll also participate in some solo competitions on behalf of the association."

"Solo?" Johnny’s eyes brightened: "That’s not impossible, but regarding the copyright matter, I think we..."

"The copyright stays with me, but I can transfer it to the association for free. The condition is a fifty-fifty share of any commercial activities involving my cards, whether selling or transferring, needs my personal consent."

Johnny gritted his teeth.

If it were an ordinary Card Maker, he wouldn’t agree to such outrageous terms.

Card Makers needed associations to enhance their reputation, so joining a big association often increased their value.

Don’t even think about a fifty-fifty share!

But a Card Maker who could independently create powerful, globally popular cards didn’t need that.

Moreover, Wen Jiang had lowered the price because she wanted to join Divine Punishment and stir things up.

Divine Punishment wanted to suppress it but considering the person in front of him could join the Shaliye if displeased...

Johnny didn’t dare refuse directly, still saying: "I need to discuss with the management."

Wen Jiang showed impatience: "You’d better hurry. You know, my patience is lacking. In return, I might bring better A-Rank Cards to the association’s solo deck."

Talented Card Makers had their pride.

After selling the Flame Dragon, Johnny understood Helena’s ’arrogance of a genius.’

The temptation of that A-Rank Card made him pinch his nose bridge: "It won’t take long. I’ll have an answer by this afternoon!"

Wen Jiang smiled with satisfaction: "Then I’ll trouble you, Mr. Johnny."

After Wen Jiang left, Johnny showed a troubled and pained expression.

But he had to admit this was a rather sweet dilemma.

Having a powerful Card Maker join was opportune for Divine Punishment at this stage.

Ever since Yunxia appeared, those damn comic plots, and more Yunxia myth cards on the market, despite few high-level ones, more people had begun to believe Yunxia might indeed possess a lost civilization.

Under such premises, the pressure on Sanctuary and Frost Moon was imaginable.

Since the card era began, they’ve exercised dominance for too long.

As the use of cards started to wane, they were on a downhill path, and the Yunxia they always looked down upon began its rise.

How could anyone tolerate this!

Before the undesired scenario unfolds, the people of Sanctuary would do anything to struggle.

Last year’s competition, where Yunxia’s bothersome Wen Jiang took first, had already caused a stir in the two great Empires, let alone their appearance in this year’s S Rank competition.

But that was for S level management to worry about.

Currently, Johnny only needed to manage his A-Rank.

With a talented Card Maker like Helena, Johnny didn’t ponder long before discussing with his superior.

They ultimately agreed to Helena’s demands, except for the copyright issue, enrolling Helena under the treatment of a regular A-Level Card Maker.

After all, that was their remarkable concession.

Wen Jiang left her contact information and promptly returned upon receiving Johnny’s call.

She had no objection to the terms.

She didn’t lack money but the emotional points needed by the system.

Her progress in Yunxia was already good, yet the market here in Sanctuary was also worth exploring.

Because Zero Egg had detected the data, Johnny’s excitement when the Flame Dragon appeared contributed one point of excitement emotion.

After signing, Wen Jiang curved her lips.

"Pleasant cooperation, Mr. Johnny."
