Chapter 245 207 Paru All Stars
```
After finding out that Fang You couldn't guarantee Fang Guanghui a visit to the Paru All Stars competition tomorrow, Xia Nuo also expressed her own opinion about what Fang You had done.
Fresh from her bath, she hopped around on Fang You's bed, staring at him seriously and said, "You You, how could you do such a thing!"
"Uncle Fang has been looking forward to the Paru All Stars so much. If he can't go tomorrow, not being able to go would definitely make him as sad as I would be if I couldn't see the rockets!"
"Um..."
Before Fang You could respond to Xia Nuo, she covered his mouth first.
"But, I actually understand..."
Speaking softly, Xia Nuo said, "You You must have lied to Uncle Fang for my sake, right? Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought us to Qiankun City."
"However... Well then, since I've reconciled with dad, we should also find a way not to let down Uncle Fang's trust in you."
"While there's still time now, let's think of a way together to get Uncle Fang to the venue!"
Xia Nuo clenched her fists, her eyes shining with starlight, full of anticipation.
Seeing that Xia Nuo had said as much, Fang You decided not to argue anymore.
Well then...
He didn't want Fang Guanghui to be sad anyway; otherwise, this dad might hold a grudge against him as Nuo Nuo did, making it harder to handle him later on.
"Let me think about how to solve this..."
So, Xia Nuo scooted over and sat next to Fang You. She turned her still slightly damp hair away from the blow-drying and took a device out of the bag on the bedside table, "I have a tablet my dad gave me. Let's use the tablet to find information and look for a solution together! It's much more convenient to look at it this way."
"Let's look at it together."
"By the way, since Uncle Fang is so eager to watch the All Stars, do you know what he wants to see?"
"My dad seems to be a fan of one of the Four Heavenly Kings. Recently, I've seen dad watching his matches and cheering for him at home."
The Paru All Stars exhibition match is one of the top annual entertainment events of "Paru GO," inviting the nation's most famous Paru Trainers and their Paru machines to compete.
The most renowned among these trainers are the so-called Paru Four Heavenly Kings, who represent the highest battle strength of "Paru GO" itself, far surpassing the strength of the various Paru Gym leaders.
It is noteworthy that the title of the Four Heavenly Kings is not one self-proclaimed by the player community; instead, it is an official title sanctioned and recognized by the authorities, with only one chance a year to challenge for the title of King.
And if one can defend the title of King three times consecutively, then they will forever have the title of King, becoming an eternal King!
Up to now, only one person in the long history of Paru has achieved such a grand goal.
That was a Paru Trainer named "Joker."
From the advent of the original Paru machines to the start of the national "Paru GO" league, while the other three Heavenly Kings frequently changed, only he and his top-tier divine beast, Lord of the Dark Night, have sat on the throne of King for three years, rarely beaten, becoming the foremost among the Four Heavenly Kings.
Some even privately refer to him with the grand moniker "King of Paru."
Without a doubt, Joker is the first legend of "Paru GO," and to date, no one has been able to defeat him.
Though Joker possesses exceptional strength, he always maintains a high sense of mystery.
He has never appeared in public, his gender, personality, appearance, and looks have always remained a mystery; some even speculate that he is an official GM account, a virtual character deliberately created by the officials for star-building.
Due to public pressure, Joker could no longer refuse the organizer's earnest invitation. Therefore, he decided to participate in the offline Paru All Stars exhibition and reveal his real face to the public.
Even though Joker has never marketed his appearance, it still hasn't stopped everyone from anticipating what Joker really looks like.

Such news, naturally, significantly elevated the value of the All Stars event, making everyone look forward to it even more. Tickets for the All Stars sold out during the presale period, and scalpers outside were selling them for tens of thousands each, yet the event remained incredibly in-demand!
Xia Nuo listened with great interest as Fang You explained the All Stars event, and she immediately asked curiously:
```
"So, Uncle Fang also came for this joker?"
"No, my dad likes this Heavenly King."
Fang You pointed out the Heavenly King his dad liked on the All Stars poster.
He stood in a relatively secluded spot, a muscle-bound brother with a forthright smile that radiated sincerity.
Next to him, posing for the camera alongside him, was a [Rock Dragon King], a rare dual-type Paru creature with rock and dragon attributes.
Lovepeace, the Rock-type Heavenly King, symbolized a love for peace.
He was a man who would never easily give in!
This year, Lovepeace had a narrow victory against the former Heavenly King, and his unyielding stance touched Fang Guanghui, reigniting his passion for esports and the vitality of life, eliciting a deep feeling of "this is how a real man should live!"
Fang Guanghui was a die-hard fan of Rock-type Paru; his favorites were Rumble Ball and Gogo Lorn. He believed that Rock-type Paru were the real deal for men, a testament to strength and power!
"That definitely sounds like Uncle Fang's style... he prefers to be on the receiving end of a beating."
Rock-type Paru were known for their thick skin and sturdy build, well-suited for defense and counterattack strategies, and many Paru had abilities that could trigger damage-reflection effects, which made them even more explosive.
Xia Nuo had previously played Paru with Fang Guanghui for a while and knew he liked these unconventional tactics.
But to Xia Nuo, dealing with Rock-types was a simple matter for his Sky Feather Dragon. Training a Rock-type properly required a significant investment of time and effort to develop and refine their abilities.
Xia Nuo and Fang You went through various pieces of information about the upcoming Paru All Stars event. The event's poster showcased all the star players who would be participating in the Paru games, most of them teenagers and young adults aged between 12 to 25. Paru GO was, after all, a game that skewed towards a younger audience.
"Are there really no tickets available anymore?"
"They're sold out online, and there are plenty of scalpers, but the All Stars is a real-name event. I'm not sure how we'll manage to get in this time."
"What's a scalper?" Xia Nuo asked curiously, tilting his head towards Fang You, "Is a scalper a special kind of cow? Can we buy from a scalper too?"
"It means those who hoard tickets with no intention of attending, only to resell them at high prices to make money—the bad guys."
Xia Nuo puffed up his cheeks in indignation, waving his tiny fists in protest, "Ah? Then why does the Paru game company sell tickets to these people?!"
"They make money off other people's love, betting there will always be someone willing to pay for the experience."
"How can they do such a thing! We can't let these people make money off it."
Xia Nuo said regretfully, "It would be great if we could invent a machine that only sells tickets to people who really like the event. Then these scalpers wouldn't be able to do their misdeeds."
"Right, those star players probably have some complimentary tickets for their performances..."
Xia Nuo pondered, "Can't we contact them and ask them for a few tickets?"
"Hmm... But we don't seem to know anyone."
"But we were once the spokespersons for a generation of Paru consoles, right? Those uncles and aunties were so nice, if we talk to them, maybe there's a chance!"
"..."
Although Xia Nuo suggested the idea offhand, it might not be a dead end.
"It's getting late now, let's contact the officials tomorrow morning and ask around."
Xia Nuo nodded too, "If all else fails, we'll sneak in quietly. At the very least, we need to get Uncle Fang the autograph from this Heavenly King. That way, Uncle Fang won't feel too disappointed, right? Hmm?"
Your out-of-the-box ideas just keep on coming...
Sometimes Fang You truly admired the audacity and daring of this bold little childhood friend.
As for this scheme, Fang You could actually pull it off—a little cheating was all it took.
What do you think?
