  Zhao Hao went deep in thought. He had been driving for years now, yet he was nothing compared to his own sister. He resignedly accepted the fact.

  His sister did not even slow down at the bends, but she did not gas it on the straights either. She lacked the daredevilry of an actual racer.

  She may have her own reasons for maintaining such a steady speed. Regardless, races only cared about one thing – speed. If consistency won races instead, everyone could do it.

  Zhao Hao started off with his history with Chen Yilong, eventually concluding with how they got down to the gamble that led to this. He went on to mention that nobody should even think of racing Chen Yilong’s boyfriend, “Xia Hai” if they do not even go past 100km/h down Mount Qilin.

  Zhao Hao had no problems going slightly over 200km/h on an empty straight and absolutely no traffic. That was all the adrenaline he needed. Even with the slightest traffic, he would struggle to go past 140km/h.

  After all, real life driving was nothing like racing sims. If you don’t touch 300km/h on sims, what’s the use of calling it a sim?

  Nevertheless, these sims have never succeeded at their goal – to simulate real-life driving situations. They could never reproduce every racing variable. Of course, one might also learn by watching races on television, but it was nothing like the experience when watching a race in person.

  “That “Xia Hai” has some potential! I thought that the Mount Qilin racing god could beat him – I even invested a huge sum in car upgrades for him. It evened the odds on their cars, but he still lost by a mile! How disappointing! How embarrassing!”


  Zhao Hao had been rather confident in the Racing God even though his car could not be compared to Xia Hai’s. That man had such a doting boyfriend – a descendant of the God of gambling. Who knows what expensive secrets lay beneath the hood of his car. Such unofficial races were at times, dependent on the car’s specs.

  On the other hand, the Mount Qilin Racing God already had a number of wins on Mount Qilin. He knew the track like the back of his hand. Even so, he still lost to Xia Hai.

  Zhao Hao and Chen Yilong had watched the stream together. Xia Hai had been incredibly lucky to leech off Chen Yilong. He was a decent driver and had a considerable amount of courage. He did not throw his car about with flamboyant power slides – but he won nevertheless.

  In the world of racing, the one who crosses the finish line first wins. Who cares if you had a massive lead at the earlier half?

  Of course, if you could drift your car beautifully while still pulling out ahead of your opponent, you would gain a lot of fans, but not many could do both at the same time. They only pulled off such stunts for show – their variations of the stunt served no purpose in actual races. If they attempted it during a serious race, it would only slow them down.

  It was just another sport, like basketball and soccer. Players could perform some fancy stunts to entertain the crowd, but at the end of the day, speed won most of the time.

  Xia Hai was the epitome of, “the wielder of a sword determines the sharpness of the sword.” He could make a good anime villain. He would not be eligible as the main protagonist, as he was a little lacking in the appearances department. Driving was one thing, good looks was another.

  “What I’m saying, sister Youmei, is that if you can’t do any of those stunts from the anime, you won’t even have the slightest chance of winning! That bastard Xia Hai has already beaten the racing god of Qilin. He had even set a new record in the process! I’m telling you, he will be the first to overcome every single mountain road in the world!” Zhao Hao recalled the nightmare of being utterly beaten on that day.

  “Oh, what a coincidence! I do know the stunts from the anime! The “Crow of the Planes” from “The 4WD God” is no longer fiction, I’ve brought it to reality!” Zhao Youyue said while smiling.

  Zhao Hao rolled his eyes. He could only humor her, she was the one behind the wheel. No racing would happen today, they were just there to meet. If they were to actually compete, his sister would be decimated. Xia Hai was not just a pro racer, he was already familiar with the road, but his sister was here for the first time.

  Zhao Hao had no doubts about Zhao Youyue’s genius. If anything, he would be surprised to find her bad at something. Even so, it would be a stretch to say that she could defeat Xia Hai.

  When the both of them reached the starting point of Mount Qilin Racing Route, it was already dark, but there were still many racers around. Some were here to challenge Xia Hai, the man who had just toppled the racing god of Mount Qilin, while others were simply there to watch or gamble.

  Some racers put on their billionaire’s faces. Some had choppered up the mountain with their rumbling Harley-Davidsons. Others were here for fun. Some drunks even got up the Mountain on their scooters.

  Other than that, a reporter called “Miss Jiazi” was present. She was, in fact, a reporter for an outdoors activities streaming channel. She was handsomely paid and had grown rather rich, but was rather frugal for a missy. Clearly, she still cared about her job and its pay.

  Miss Jiazi’s full name was Qian Xiaojia. Her family was rather powerful, although it was nothing compared to the Zhao family. At that moment, she was speaking to her viewers, “Previously on our stream, we gave you guys first seat views of the race between “Heavenly King Xia Hai” and “Racing God of Mount Qilin.” I bet that the rush has not yet worn off yet. As of now, Xia Hai is the reigning king of Mount Qilin. We hope to see someone challenging him tonight, although I doubt such a person even exists. “The Racing God of Mount Qilin” had been thought to be undefeatable, so what about Xia Hai?”


  Miss Jiazi had already started off as a somewhat popular streamer. Her choice of content only further increased her reputation even further since mountain racing doesn’t often appear in real life, mostly only in animations and films.

  As Qian Xiaojia blabbered on about Xia Hai, the audiences became awfully excited. She was right. The King of the Heavens, Xia Hai had already broken so many records. He had been born to drive on Mount Qilin.
