"It's starting with eight thousand people, did the game developers finally see the light this time?"
"The game is updated to 2.0, and I'm still digging holes in the test space /(ㄒoㄒ)/~~"
"Unlocking maps of the other three regions, this update is too awesome. But when can us newbies go exploring? We've been stuck within the hundred-kilometer radius of Red Moon Town, and it feels like all the monsters are killed by veteran players. I ran in the wild for over a day and didn't snag a single monster, just a bunch of old-timers ganging up on one poor Crocodile-toothed Rhinoceros. Strongly demand more monsters on the map."
"Updating for thirty-two hours, how am I supposed to survive this time, begging the devs to let me in, I'd even mine for free."
Players on the forum looked at the first official announcement and commented below, some ecstatic, some annoyed, and many surprised that this update takes thirty-two hours, leaving many able to enter the game feeling helpless.
Many players, logging on at least eighteen hours daily, have already treated Descent of High Martial as a major part of life, especially the daily cultivation, that's a steadfast routine, you could say it's even more diligent than going to school.
Now suddenly unable to cultivate, everyone feels uncomfortable.
But just as people were discussing, the update announcement for the new version came out, making everyone stop in their tracks and gasp.
The main content of version 2.0, The Great Expansion Era, is as follows.
1. Increased the game's online player limit to eight thousand, increasing by five hundred daily thereafter.
2. Unlocking free exploration of the Mist Mountain Region, allowing all players to freely explore the entire Mist Mountain without any restrictions.
3. Open new maps Celestial River Region, Desolate Ridge Region, and the Icefield Region, accessible once reaching Bone Forging Realm or becoming a Core Disciple at the Martial Arts Hall.
4. Unlock new outfits and Core Disciple outfits, new outfits have more functions, players can exchange using Martial Arts Hall Points and Contribution at the Martial Arts Hall.
5. Start the permission to hire NPCs within towns, anyone with shops in Red Moon Town or Defense Corps stations can freely recruit NPCs for assistance.
6. Unlock town caravan gameplay, any player in Red Moon Town with a shop reaching Initial Stage Martial Artist can register a caravan using Martial Arts Hall Points and Contribution, freely carrying goods to trade with town caravans.

Fang Zhen: "Could it be a mistake, releasing the public test map? O_o"
Twilight of the Gods: "It's not just the new maps and gameplay, these new outfits are too OP, they're simply divine artifacts for outdoor cultivation, a hundred tons per outfit, even those in the Bone Forging Realm can use them, and the dual attributes are too powerful. If it spawns with two moderate Qi and Blood or Qi and Blood Circulation boost entries, it would be unbeatable (⊙_⊙;)"
Xiao Yuan also went crazy: "Such a massive update, my strategy guide needs a redo O__O"
…
Whether players have entered the game or not, the new version update content left everyone astounded, nearly drooling.
First, instantly increased the number of players to eight thousand, then daily open numbers increased by five hundred, undoubtedly making it easier for reserved players to be selected.
The new maps and unlocked permissions moved both new and veteran players.
Because anyone who's ever paid attention to Descent of High Martial knows the maps in the game are vast, any grinding map spans several hundred kilometers, other games wouldn't dare do this, too manpower and resource consuming.
The Mist Mountain Region alone has forty-plus cities, over a thousand towns, a game as big as it gets.
Previously, everyone could only freely explore a hundred-kilometer radius around Red Moon Town, now the entire Mist Mountain Region is unlocked, leaving everyone a bit dazed, you could say they're overwhelmed.
A hundred-kilometer radius around Red Moon Town used to keep everyone thrilled, now the area has increased a thousandfold, anyone seeing it would feel shocked and amazed.
Even those not playing Descent of High Martial can see how grand such a map is, being able to freely explore within such a vast map makes your skin crawl just thinking about it.
"Dear devs, I was wrong to blame you, I'm definitely playing this game!"
"The game developers aren't just stringing us along with promises, are they? This is too outrageous, opening forty-plus cities at once, over a thousand towns, and so many wild regions, I could play for ten years and not finish it, if it's real, I'll eat noodles standing on my head."
"My dear fellow, forget playing for ten years, I feel like my life isn't enough, you're just talking about the Mist Mountain Region, they've also opened three other regions, only accessible if you reach Bone Forging Realm or become a Core Disciple."
"What dear fellow, call me beautiful big sister!"
…
Everyone on the official forum looked at the latest version update content and couldn't help but exclaim and question, feeling this update was too unreal. Even those legendary games in the market wouldn't dare boast as Descent of High Martial does, so many posted on the forum questioning the version update, even citing examples to argue.
