Zhai Ren looked at the noisy tenants and said in a deep voice, "The one hundred Free Attributes aren't important. What's important is the Dorm Owner Token!"

"Dorm Owner Token? What's that, is it like being a Floor Leader?" asked a stocky man with a pointed head and a height under 1.7 meters, scratching his head.

Zhai Ren explained, "It's completely different. The Dorm Owner is the administrator of a dormitory building and can participate in setting the building's rules!"

Instantly, all the men became excited, itching to go kill Xu Lang right then and there.

Zhai Ren felt a headache coming on.

His dorm produced special effect protein powder and enhanced the results of physical training. The only side effect was that too much muscle could squeeze out one's sanity.

He hoped that after the dorm upgraded later, it would develop a "train the brain before the body" special effect to compensate for this shortcoming.

"Um, are we really going to fight Xu Lang? Feels like we're a tiny bit... no, a billion bits outmatched," a dark-skinned, muscular man hesitated.

Although Dorm 66 was full of physical-build players, he still felt a bit weak at the thought of facing the superstar team from Dorm 200.

Xu Lang went without saying.

Those female tenants like Cao Yaxuan were no ordinary cannons either.

Although they usually kept a low profile, anyone following Xu Lang around, even a donkey, would probably become a spirit by now.

"Hei San is right. Before the general trend emerges, we shouldn't provoke Xu Lang," Zhai Ren said, looking at the dark-skinned man with appreciation.

A strategic general!!!

If the opportunity arose, he certainly wouldn't mind clashing with Xu Lang.

The temptation of completely controlling an entire dormitory building was simply too great!

...

"Ugh, why does the dorm building have to play all these fancy tricks when it could just have a monster attack?" Zhang Dahai covered his face and lamented.

He hadn't managed to gather much loot this round of the game before unexpected events started popping up.

"Ah, whatever. There's still one hidden point I haven't swept. Let's go sweep it first!"

All this noise and trouble has nothing to do with me, nothing to do with me!

"Young man, you're a local player from the Mad King Building, right?"

Suddenly, a voice came through.

Zhang Dahai was startled. He turned his head and saw a man with a goatee waving at him.

A wine gourd hung at his waist. His shifty-eyed, sneaky appearance looked very lecherous, like someone at a freight station who would secretly hand out little cards to people.

But Zhang Dahai didn't dare look down on him in the slightest. Instead, he went on full alert!

"Don't panic, don't panic. I just want to ask you something. Was Xu Lang your classmate before? I think he's really impressive and want to go cling to his thigh," the goateed man rummaged in his clothes, took out a pack of Liqun cigarettes, and tossed one over to Zhang Dahai.

...

It must be said that the move played by the Mad King Building was effective.

If Xu Lang was previously standing on a high platform, now he was riding in an airplane, and everyone wanted to shoot him down.

However, this didn't seem to be a unique mechanism of the Mad King Building, but something every dorm building had. Xu Lang had heard Rainy Night Blade talk about this "antivirus mechanism" before.

If this antivirus mechanism still couldn't eliminate the "anomaly," there would be even harsher moves later, similar to heavenly tribulations, each layer stronger than the last.

Yet, Xu Lang was only slightly annoyed by this, not particularly concerned.

The reason he controlled the quality of the Mad King Building's players, preventing it from rising, was precisely to prevent this kind of thing from happening!

Even if all the players attacked together, he was confident he could fight them.

He wasn't alone;he had Cao Yaxuan and the others for support!

Moreover, Wu Huihui probably wouldn't join the siege against him either, so the momentum of being an enemy of the entire world simply couldn't form!

The Mad King Building pulling this stunt was worse than giving him a "Tang Monk's Flesh" buff—at least then he could just take a bite out of himself.

Xu Lang stood there just like that, not even glancing at the players in the corridor or the open space, as if he didn't care at all.

"Xu Lang!"

Right then, Xu Ruyan and the others returned.

The players automatically moved away, not daring to block the women's path.

They could all tell that Xu Ruyan and the other women looked very displeased. No one wanted to get on their bad side at this moment.

"You're back," Xu Lang greeted them, smiling as he asked, "Find anything good?"

"Now's not the time for that," Sherry said anxiously. "Xu Lang, we might have been targeted by other players!"

Xu Lang shrugged. "Haven't we always been like that?"

Sherry was stunned. She looked around and realized the players' gazes were no different from before—greedy, fearful, envious, resentful.

It's just that compared to before, the greed was more intense, like wolves starving for several days.

"There's still some difference, I think. They feel more dangerous," Sherry said, frowning.

"Teacher Sherry, what they think isn't important. What's important is that we can't appear weak, and we absolutely cannot show fear!" Cao Yaxuan patted Sherry's shoulder and said in a low voice.

Sherry understood. She was about to say something but suddenly closed her red lips tightly.

The crowd stirred, clearing a path as a group of people walked over.

It was Zhai Ren and the other Floor Leaders.

[ Xu Ruyan: Their stances show mutual wariness. They probably haven't formed an alliance yet. ]

Xu Lang turned to look, simultaneously receiving Xu Ruyan's private message.

However, after giving these Floor Leaders a glance, Xu Lang simply turned around and left.

Luo Lin was dumbfounded for a moment before hurriedly leading Tao Tao to follow.

Cao Yaxuan and the others didn't say anything either, silently following Xu Lang into the building.

Almost every player was watching this scene. Over a thousand pairs of eyes converged, like an invisible spotlight.

"He can be replaced!"

Kui Zi clenched her fist, flames burning fiercely in her eyes.

Several times she wanted to step forward and shout for Xu Lang to stop, but she never did it.

An instinct was frantically suppressing her thoughts, as if taking that one step would plunge her into an abyss!

The muscular men from Dorm 66 who had been shouting fiercely earlier also didn't dare to talk trash, not even uttering a single word.

Xu Lang naturally carried an aura of pressure, like a ruler looking down upon all heroes. Even without deliberately adjusting his words or actions, he made people feel like submitting. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

This was a passive effect brought by the Crushing Demonic Eye. Although Xu Lang didn't value it much, the effect was real and tangible.

All the players stared at Xu Lang's retreating back, silent as the grave.

...

As Xu Lang went upstairs, he received saluting stares the entire way.

This time was different from before. The stares were exceptionally focused, predatory, and greedy. That deep-seated emotion in their bones couldn't be hidden.

However, whenever they saw Xu Lang, this look would swiftly vanish.

Bang!

Only when Xu Lang and his group returned to their dorm and closed that resplendent, golden door did the players' "stolen" vocal cords seem to return.

"Is that thing hanging at Xu Lang's waist the Blood Pelican Demon Blade? It looks so fierce!"

"It's worth a hundred Free Attributes!"

"Idiot, the chat room is already talking about what the Dorm Owner Token is. Go check what that is;that's the real prize!"

"Actually, to be serious, Xu Lang isn't invincible, right?"

"No human can be invincible. He mainly relies on that super dangerous item."

"Do you think Sister Yun has any ideas about Xu Lang?"

"Sister Yun's looks are average. She probably doesn't have a chance to become Xu Lang's tenant."

"Tsk tsk, still making lewd jokes. Be careful Sister Yun comes back and tears your main door down."

Listening to the surrounding chatter, Zhou Ye swallowed hard, cursing inwardly.

These idiots, only seeing the benefits and not the drawbacks, right?!

Even if you know where the richest person lives, would you dare to go withdraw money?

Forget withdrawing money;you'd probably get shot to pieces before even seeing the richest person's face!
