Chapter 365: Chapter 344 The Great Yin Yang Master_1


    Truth be told, Lin Yuan had no interest in these territorial disputes. However, it was often a matter that was not driven by his will alone.


    If Jin Mu held such views, it was even less surprising for the Chu people, who were famously proud in the anime world.


    The next day.


    The news that Shadow would be releasing a new work in August appeared in the website’s information bar, attracting quite a lot of attention from readers and fans alike:


    “Shadow has a new work? He just finished ‘Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma’ and is already working on something new?”


    “That’s pretty fast. Seems like this is another originalic?”


    “Shadow obviously isn’t content with just being an artist. After all, the sess of ‘Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma’ has already proven his originality.”


    “Although I’m not a fan of ‘Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma,’ I do hope that Teacher Shadow’s new work will be a sess because I am a fan of Chu Kuang!”


    “I started following Shadow because of Xian Yu out of curiosity, but I ended up liking thisic artist because of ‘Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma.’ Although people have always joked that Shadow is invisible, I hope he can shed this title soon.”


    “Hahaha, it seems that quite a few people discovered Shadow through Chu Kuang and Xian Yu.”<div>


    “You could say he’s practically invisible.”


    “…”


    Even though die-hard fans continued to emphasize Shadow’s status in theics world, it seemed that his “invisible”bel was not easily shaken off.


    A few dayster, Tribe Comics released a live interview.


    Website interviews were amon urrence ahead of releases by well-knownic artists.


    However, this particr interview had nothing to do with Shadow.


    Shadow’s interview hadn’t begun yet.


    This one was about Sea of Blood and Pacific Saury—


    Sea of Blood and Pacific Saury were the two famous Chundic artists who would be releasing new works in August.


    As both of them were Chu people and were releasing new works in August, they epted a joint interview with the website to hype up their new works.


    Lin Yuan had also done this type of interview before the release of ‘Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma.’


    There was nothing unusual about this.


    However, some of the remarks made by the two during the interview seemed to annoy Luo Wei.


    Like thisment from Pacific Saury:


    “I didn’t expect that Teacher Sea of Blood would also be releasing a new book in August. If I had known, maybe I would have considered changing the date.”


    And this one from Sea of Blood:


    “Boss Pacific Saury is very strong. In August, I won’t be lonely with him.”


    At first nce, the two didn’t seem to be saying anything too unreasonable. It just seemed like they were casually promoting each other’s work.


    But where’s Shadow?<div>


    In August three GOATs were supposed topete, but you two were already trying to steal the show. Are you pretending Shadow doesn’t exist?


    Or do you think Shadow doesn’t deserve to be yourpetition?


    Clearly, these two were intentionally leaving Shadow out.


    They both dered cheerfully, “This August will be aic derby for Chu people.”<div>


    The term “derby” generally refers to apetition between two teams from the same ce.


    This was why Luo Wei was feeling frustrated—


    Shadow was being ignored!


    Thest few lines of the interview took Luo Wei’s irritation to another level.


    This started when the host pressed the two guests on their opinion of Shadow, who would be releasing his new work around the same time—presumably because the host felt they should mention Shadow—and forced the topic into the conversation:


    “What do you two think about Teacher Shadow releasing a new work at the same time?”


    “Shadow?”


    Pacific Saury looked at his own shadow: “I can’t see clearly.”


    Sea of Blood made a pun: “Isn’t Shadow invisible?”


    Anyone who knew the memes would know that Shadow had often been joked about as being “invisible.”


    Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood were clearly making fun of Shadow.


    Then, Pacific Saury said casually, “I’m just joking. Shadow is a quite powerfulic artist. I believe his music talents must be great, since he is a Qin person.”


    Sea of Blood followed, “Just like we Chu people are naturally gifted in makingics.”<div>


    The two were quite witty, joking back and forth likeedians delivering punchlines.


    But their intention was clear.


    Chu people’sics were the strongest.


    This was why Luo Wei was rolling her eyes.


    Surprisingly,


    The interview drew a considerable response on Tribe Comics, with numerousments underneath and even a bit of a controversy brewing.


    “Was it really a joke?”


    “Hahahaha, the two teachers are hrious! Did they arrange this roasting of Shadow in advance?”


    “I feel like the joke went too far and was disrespectful to Teacher Shadow.”


    “They actually considered it a Chupetition, not even taking Shadow into consideration.”


    “These two Chu people are such masters of sarcasm!”


    “Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood are showing off. You could say they are joking because their words seem to be mocking Shadow, but if you said they are mocking Shadow because they seem to be joking, it doesn’t seem like they said anything too excessive, considering that Shadow being invisible is somethingizens joke about.”


    “As a fan of Shadow, I feel slightly nauseous from hearing them say all this. These two have really lost my respect.”<div>


    “Are Shadow’s fans so fragile? It was just a joke.”


    “Here we go again. Fans are considered sensitive if they retort a bit, and fans are considered rude if they criticize a bit. It seems like you are the ones who are the most open-minded.”


    “Honestly, these two do have skills, stronger than Shadow.”


    “I’m neither of their fans, just a passerby speaking fairly: it doesn’t seem like mocking, just some frivolous bragging. However, it definitely seems like these two don’t hold Shadow in high regard.”


    “…”


    People were analyzing this interview.


    Some spected about how Shadow would react.


    The next day, the routine interview before the release of Shadow’s new work took ce.


    But to everyone’s surprise, Shadow didn’t seem affected by the interview with Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood.


    He didn’t discuss much else, just promoted ‘Death Note’ dutifully.


    “Well, look at that.”


    “Hahaha, Shadow just straight up ignored Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood.”


    “Nice, I like Shadow’s attitude!”<div>


    “What grace! Teacher Shadow is truly graceful!”


    “I feel like Shadow has already responded. His response is: I just want to focus on drawingics.”


    “Cheers to Teacher Shadow! Go!”


    “Let them do their petty squabbles. Let’s just focus on what we do best!”


    “I thought Shadow would retaliate. But this is better, why should he stoop to their level?”


    “…”


    Of course, there were some fans of Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood who used Shadow of chickening out.


    A user named Liangliangmented, “This is because he doesn’t have confidence in his own work.”


    However, this kind ofment was soon overwhelmed by criticism.


    “Not responding is chickening out?”


    “So he should just start cursing like a shrew?”


    “Regardless of whether they were being sarcastic, let’s just assume they were joking.”


    “I think Shadow handled it perfectly.”


    “As expected of the man stuck between Xian Yu and Chu Kuang!”


    “Although I also admit thatics from Chu are amazing, as a casual reader, I enjoy Shadow more.”


    “Shadow is the real genius, pretending to ignore Pacific Saury and Sea of Blood while actuallypletely ignoring them.”


    “…”
