The first burst of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" occurred in Zhao Continent.

As the last bastion for the martial arts genre, the love of the Zhao people for martial arts is well-known across Blue Star.

Thus.

During the time when Canyang and Duan Qingshan were excitedly discussing "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to the point of no return.

A storm suddenly swept through the martial arts forums of Zhao Continent!

The storm started with a post, which was simple, but the tone of the poster was incredibly exaggerated:

"Aaaaaah, who has read 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes'!?"

As a result.

That post exploded with countless readers who had just started reading "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"!

Hundreds of replies!

"Reading it, reading it, from afternoon till night, can't put it down!"

"You think that's something? I've been reading from 8 AM to 6 PM, a whole ten hours without a break, even forgot to make lunch, now I'm so hungry my stomach is growling, and I don't want to waste time cooking when I could be reading, so I had to order takeout. I freaking hate takeout, but what I hate even more is Bao Xiruo, this green tea. If she could die earlier, I would be willing to eat takeout for a month!"

"Turns out I'm not the only one who feels this way. This martial arts novel is incredible!"

"Me too, me too. This novel is simply addictive, I just can't stop reading. How can a martial arts novel be this thrilling!"

"This novel completely shattered my preconceived notions about martial arts. It's totally different from our Zhao Continent's style!"

"King's Path, huh. 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' style is the real King's Path of martial arts!"

"This Chu Kuang is really awesome. No wonder he's so famous across Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, and Han. He's just too good!"

"I'm totally infatuated with Huang Rong. She's the most perfect heroine I've seen in martial arts novels. Compared to Huang Rong, other heroines from martial arts novels are just pretty faces used to advance the plot!"

"Only after reading 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' did I realize how one-sided my understanding of the martial world has been!"

"I really love this novel's original setting. The oppression of the Song Dynasty by the Jin people makes me so angry, and the Mongolians are really strong. Unfortunately, Chu Kuang's depiction of this fictional history isn't rich enough. Otherwise, it would be even more exciting. Who knew combining martial arts novels with fictional history could be this exhilarating!"

"The various settings inside are too cool!"

"Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, Branch Beats the White Chimpanzee, Nine Yin Manual, and things like Eastern Heretic, Western Poison, Southern Emperor, Northern Beggar, Central Diviner, and Duel Atop Mount Hua are just too awesome!"

The people of Zhao Continent read a lot of martial arts.

However, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was a style they had never experienced before!

The impact of this new style directly caused the first batch of Zhao readers who picked up the novel to fall for it!

And after Zhao Continent.

Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, and Han also started to stir.

...

Qin Continent.

"Oh my, is this still the martial arts I know? Why is it so thrilling? I haven't been able to get into a martial arts novel for eight hundred years. But Chu Kuang's 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' brought back the excitement I felt when I first read a martial arts novel all those years ago!"

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes? Chu Kuang's new book? Is it good? Isn't it just a martial arts novel?"

"You've made me curious. I saw online reviews saying it was written for Zhao people, never imagined I'd see so many of our Qin readers recommending it too."

...

Qi Continent.

"Damn, worthy of the old rascal, even turning clichéd martial arts into something fresh. 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' is too captivating. This is the real charm of martial arts!?"

"Are you sure, upstairs?"

"No need for upstairs to confirm, I can confirm for you. I'm someone who can't stand watching a single martial arts drama, yet I devoured Chu Kuang's book for half a day!"

...

Chu Continent.

"Strongly recommend 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes.' Don't miss out on this novel just because you don't read martial arts. You'll realize you actually love this genre after reading it!"

"Really?"

"Isn't it said that the old rascal wrote this book specifically for Zhao people?"

...

Yan Continent.

"I was just casually flipping through 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes,' since it's the old rascal's new book, but once I started reading, I was hooked. He writes really well, it's just unfortunate for Princess Huazheng!"

"Chu Kuang's martial arts novel?"

"It's just a martial arts novel, is it that good? I'll find some time to buy and read it."

...

Han Continent.

"If you haven't read 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' yet, hurry up and dive in. I have a feeling that if you're late, you won't be able to buy it anymore—at that time, don't blame your brother for not warning you!"

"What? Are you a shill for the bookstore?"

"Is Chu Kuang's wuxia novel really that good? I bought a copy, thinking about reading it, but somehow I just can't bring myself to open it and flip through."

...

Unlike Zhao Continent.

On Zhao Continent, readers of 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' were numerous, and they all read it at the first opportunity, truly loving wuxia and genuinely curious about Chu Kuang.

In the five continents of Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, and Han,

the readers who bought 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' were far fewer than the Zhao people.

Even though quite a few readers bought 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes,' many didn't read it at all due to a lack of motivation.

However,

when the readers from Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, and Han saw so many people recommending the novel, they couldn't help but become interested.

Could it be that with a theme like wuxia, the old rascal also managed to create something spectacular?

Could it be that 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' was not only written for Zhao people, but also something that we from Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, and Han would enjoy?

With this thought,

the next day, the bookstores in each of the states of Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, and Han were even busier than the first day!

"Give me a copy of 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes'!"

"I'll buy one too!"

"Old Luo, can't I just borrow yours and see it, why should I buy it too? What a waste of money."

"Nonsense, I haven't finished it yet. Hurry up and buy it. Don't you see how many people are queuing up?"

"Fine, one copy of 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes'. If it's not as good as you say, I'm coming after you tonight."

"I want 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes'!"

Eagles are a protected species, you know.

The managers of the major bookstores, noticing the situation inside the stores, were once again complacently proud!

That's what you call vision!

They had thought that after the first day, the sales of 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' would decrease.

Most of the first-day buyers were die-hard fans of Chu Kuang, and such fans are limited in number after all.

Yet, who knew?

By the second day of release, 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' sold even better!

Luckily we had the foresight to order hundreds of thousands of stocks, even if we went the conservative route!

However,

just when the bookstore managers were nearly squinting their eyes shut from grinning, the third day since 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' release arrived.

That day,

many readers had already completely finished reading 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes'.

After all, the book was just over a million words, and for some seasoned readers, that meant just a couple of days of reading.

Morning,

clients coming to purchase 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' at various bookstores were even more preposterous, lining up in long queues for the first time.

One bookstore owner quicky calculated and was shocked to find that just the number of buyers that morning alone was more than the total number of customers from the previous two days combined!

At that moment,

some started having doubts:

"Manager, this trend seems a bit off, don't you think? How come the number of readers buying books is getting scarier each day?"

"Our vision..."

"Ah no, it's our stock... "

"Do we have enough stock to sell?"
