A One-Star ount? Are you kidding me? Stubborn Bronze!


    They double-checked, refreshing the page over and over, but the oue didn''t change. Damn.


    [Team]Ironlifting Uncle: ?


    [Team]Dirt Demon King: ?


    [Team]Millionaire Jack: ?


    Ethan quickly typed out an exnation: "Flora hasn''t yed this game before; that''s why she''s at one star. But trust me, she''s really good."


    A one-star ount... really? If they didn''t know Ethan so well, they''d think he was just blowing smoke.


    Ethan had hyped up Flora so much before that their expectations were sky-high. Now, their disappointment matched that anticipation.


    A one-star ount, named F, no less. Did she think calling herself F automatically made her as epic as the legendary F?


    Even though they were feeling a bit let down, they put on a friendly front, knowing Flora was Ethan''s buddy.


    "Hey, can Jules join us too?" Flora messaged Ethan.


    Seeing the name Jules almost knocked Ethan off his chair. He quickly pulled himself together and replied, "Of course, that''d be awesome!"


    She was still a bit in disbelief. Before meeting Flora, she never imagined she''d get to game with the infamous F and Jules.


    Flora added Jules to the team.


    Ethan had already given the group a heads-up about bringing in a high-profile yer.


    The team leader, Ironlifting Uncle, had a mixed look on his face at theputer.


    Could he say no? Bringing in a one-star ount nearly gave him a heart attack. Another one-star, and he might suggest they pack it up and call it quits.


    Just as he was getting anxious, a system alert popped up.


    [Teammate F invited Supreme VIP Jules to join the team]


    The words "Supreme VIP Jules" shed in big, golden letters, grabbing Ironlifting Uncle''s attention!


    His hand shook, almost hitting the decline button.


    He quickly checked out Jules'' ount, and there it was, "officially verified" in huge letters.


    His hand trembled again-he almost dropped to the floor.


    It was really Jules! He wasn''t seeing things-it was actually Jules!All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.


    Was Jules the big shot Ethan had mentioned? Now that''s a real VIP!


    Trying to keep his excitement in check, he managed to click ept with shaking fingers.


    The moment Jules joined, the team chat went wild.


    Jules'' verified ount, with its gold-trimmed avatar and name, was impossible to ignore. Everyone in the team was spamming like crazy.


    Were they dreaming? Was it actually freaking Jules in their group?!


    [Team]Ironlifting Uncle: Wee, Super F!


    [Team]Dirt Demon King: Wee, Super F!


    [Team]Millionaire Jack: Wee, Super F!


    Once Ironlifting Uncle sent his message, the others quickly followed suit.


    They had to show Super F how thrilled they were to have him!


    Compared to that, Flora and Jules didn''t quite get the same star treatment.


    Ethan''s lips twitched. Even without seeing them, he could tell from messages that everyone was practically bowing down to Jules now.


    If they only knew that the Flora they overlooked and underestimated


    right there, they''d probably be eas


    floored.


    [Team]Jules: Flora, why aren''t you answering me...?


    Jules had been quiet since joining, and while Ironlifting Uncle and the others wondered if they''d scared him off, Jules finally chimed in.


    QUMS


    When they saw his message, they were all caught off guard.
