Chapter 1303: Pandawans’ Overnight Stay

“I know I said that we should go together to PandaVerse Festival.” Hungry Hippo Cultivator Xiong Da said as he sighed at the sight he was seeing right now. “But ISN’T THIS A LITTLE BIT TOO MUCH?” He shouted as he saw the gathering of his Pandawan pals in his living room.

“Rawrrrr, Xiong Da Bro. Don’t be too much of a hardass. Look, you have so much space all around you that if you don’t utilise them, it’s a waste of space!” Wobbling Wombat Cultivator Deng Long said as he chewed on a piece of pizza.

“Ya. Ruo Ying Big Sis invited us here, just take it as a surprise overnight party.” Angry Ape Cultivator Bu Dong added and asked Xiong Da if he wants a piece of BBQ Chicken Pizza.

“I really liked your house, the view outside is magnificent although I did hear from Ruo Ying Big Sis that you had other flats that are more fantastic.” Bombardier Beetle Cultivator Bin Yong exclaimed and his girlfriend Jia Le who practised the Breathtaking Bellflower Style agreed as well.

“If you stay at the penthouse on the 35th floor, everything else will look magnificent.” Mad Monkey Cultivator Shi Zuo said as he lay on his couch lazily with Luo Bo, the Illusive Rabbit Cultivator already asleep on his lap. “Also, please don’t shout that loud, Luo Bo just pulled a three day all nighter so that she could clear her work in time for PandaVerse.”

“I think all of us did that just to get a sufficient number of vacation days just for this PandaVerse.” Ruo Ying came in and tried to calm Xiong Da down. “This is all of them. I did not invite the rest of the Pandawans since we are not that close to them.”

“Oh well, I guess they could stay in the guest room but Bu Dong and Deng Long have to share the bed.” Xiong Da giggled at the two bachelors but the two of them shrugged it off as an expected reply from the master of this penthouse.

“Anyways, I am guessing we would want to team up together for the Great Demon Rat War?” He thanked Ruo Ying for taking his suitcase back into his room while he unreservedly joined the group eating the remaining finger bites that they had ordered earlier.

“You guys saw how Jin just dropped a massive F bomb in the forums a few hours ago, there is no way any of us will be able to sleep well if we do not discuss this properly.” Bu Dong said and the rest chuckled slightly. 

Jin had previously written in the forums that he would be giving a major hint of the upcoming PandaVerse festival if they could complete a few social media goals. From hitting a certain number of subscribers on Bear Cub One’s media channels to following the new Dungeons and Pandas official Tiktik account where Kiyu would be the one responsible for handling it.

To his surprise, his loyal customers not only hit the requirements of those social media goals but surpass them by a whole lot. It seemed as if the efforts in marketing and promoting the PandaVerse festival were not wasted and a high number of people were genuinely interested in seeing this succeed.

Thus, Jin held his part of his bargain by releasing the information 12 hours before the official start of the PandaVerse Festival…and that was the map of the Great Demon War. When people took a look at it, a lot of them as Deng Long had aptly put it, “Total batshit crazy.” 

This was because the so call map that Jin had released could be considered one of the largest maps that Dungeons and Pandas had ever published. (Although only Jin and his colleagues knew that this was the Farming World and not a Dungeon Instance.) Even the Goblin Orc War could not be compared with the scale of this map especially when all of the cultivators were being teleported into various instances to join the goblins’ fight against the Orcs.

But this time around, Jin had explicitly said that they had free rein running around this entire map (basically the entire Northern Region) to get things done. Not only do they have to eliminate the Demon Rats but also help to liberate towns that were infested by them. There would also be instances where they could be joining Jin’s monster armies to fight off the Demon Rats but strict orders had to be followed or else they would be kicked out of that particular fight.

Yet because of the strict ruling, more points were said to be given if they followed the monster army’s orders and only a certain amount of Pandarens could join the fight. Any more and the Dungeon Instance would block access to those Pandarens from entering the battle. However, the most important thing of all was that no cultivator versus cultivator was allowed. Anyone who initiated it would be considered banned from the PandaVerse Festival.

Even with the basic rules by Jin, the commentators in the forums knew that there might be certain battles that prioritised the first come first serve basis and entering those battles, it will definitely reward more points. So, they suspected that the Sponsor tickets that Jin had been selling would be able to facilitate that. 

Such a rumour was enough to cause the sponsor tickets to be selling like hotcakes as Jin had publicly shown the numbers as well as the cultivators’ names who bought such tickets (if they were willing to publicise their names, else an alias was used.) 

And as best Pandawan pals, Xiong Da did buy sponsor tickets for everyone who was in his house right now since he knew this might potentially be one of the best dungeon experiences yet to come. So because of that, the group decide to wind down together by eating dinner and staying overnight at Xiong Da’s house as they casually discussed what they could potentially do with the map provided by Jin.
