Chapter 276 Counterplay
Trystan jumped in fright.
“No, absolutely not. I’m not hiring ghostwriters. If the academy finds out, they’ll cancel all my guide achievements.”
“What are you thinking? If ghostwriting gets exposed, we’re screwed too,” Mark snapped back.
“Then how are you planning to help?”
All Trystan wanted was to make guides and maybe hit one viral post, but with only 11 days left, the pressure was brutal.
Mark’s voice came back confident. “You still don’t see it? Joanna took a shortcut. She’s focusing on resource-harvest guides.
“If she can write them, so can we.
“These dungeons don’t need heavy calculations. Once you clear them, just stay inside and search carefully for details.
“It’s fast. Including the dungeon run, you can probably pump out three or four guides a day.”
Trystan nodded. It did sound workable.
But the anxiety hit harder. “Eleven days. No, ten days now. Even if I write four a day, five without sleeping, that’s only fifty guides. Joanna’s doing twenty a day.”
“Trystan, seriously… You’re killing me here. Who said you had to write them?
“What I mean is, if we spread this method, won’t a ton of strategy group students start writing this kind of guide too?
“It’s the last days of the semester. Who wouldn’t want easy credits?
“If lots of students run dungeons and write guides together, that’s a direct snipe at Joanna.
“She might clear a dungeon, write a guide, and then come out and realize someone already posted it.
“I even looked into the dungeons she likes to run.
“Our study group can preemptively guide those dungeons and block her in advance.”
A bolt of lightning went off in Trystan’s head.

Kid, are you a genius or what?
The idea is vicious.
But this was his own skin on the line. He couldn’t afford mercy.
I’ll do it.
Mark had provided the idea, but he wasn’t going to fight on Trystan’s behalf. Trystan personally stepped in and posted on the Divine and Demonic Academy forum.
“Joanna’s guides are honestly impressive.
“There are only ten days left this semester. Joanna just returned from the Divine Battlefield and is sprinting hard. I probably won’t be able to hold onto first place. But I have to admit, every one of her guides genuinely benefits people. That’s why the views are so high, and they’re written fast too.
“It’s finals season, so it’s crunch time. Anyone still trying to farm credits, even sophomores and juniors, can use this method.
“Below, I’ll explain how to write this type of guide and how to produce guides quickly…”
The post blew up almost immediately. Mark also forwarded it to the big guide-major group chat.
He wrote, “This post makes sense. No wonder he’s our guide-major ace. Anyone wanna team up and make guides? Finals are here. No slacking. Let’s farm some credits together.”
A lot of students responded. Without realizing it, a coordinated group aimed at blocking Joanna had formed.
At the same time.
Joanna received a warning from Katherine.
“Joanna, go check this post. I don’t think Trystan has good intentions.”
Joanna skimmed the post, her brows knitting slightly.
Then they relaxed.
“Don’t worry. They can’t snipe me.”

“Huh? You’ve got a way to deal with them?”
“It’s not dealing with them. It’s making it impossible for them to deal with me.”
