Douluo: I founded the mecha tribe and I am the king of mecha battles!

Chapter 118 Refining the Heart
The so-called duel, the so-called battle, after all, is nothing more than an extension of strategy and strength.

Whether the information is equal and whether there is a disparity in power.

As the saying goes: Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle.

Chen Zhou did indeed look down on Ye Xinglan, but that didn't mean he would relax and give up preparations after the battle.

On the contrary, he had long wanted to see the strength of the so-called Shrek Academy disciples.

However, looking at Tang Wulin, Gu Yue and Xie Xie handed over by Wu Changkong, and Xu Xiaoyan who had already shown some signs of his potential, Chen Zhou did not have any expectations for this legendary academy that had stood for tens of thousands of years.

As night fell, the bustling city of Tianhai City gleamed brightly under the neon lights. Yet, all this hustle and bustle seemed to have nothing to do with Chen Zhou. He sat quietly by the window of his luxurious hotel room, his gaze piercing the glass and gazing into the deep, boundless night sky.

The lights outside the window are as bright as the galaxy, with the hustle and bustle of traffic and the noise of people. However, in his eyes, all this is nothing but passing clouds. Only the vast starry sky is the home of his soul.

Chen Zhou stood tall and straight by the window, like a silent sculpture. His eyes were deep and serene, as if they could contain the mysteries of the entire universe.

The night breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness, but it couldn't shake his inner peace. He looked up at the starry sky, as if he was talking to the distant stars. Every star twinkled in his eyes, as if telling an eternal story.

The nights of Tianhai City were filled with dazzling lights, revelry, and extravagance, but in Chenzhou's eyes, all this was but worldly vanity. What he longed for was the tranquility and eternal truth found in the starry sky.

Every star was a beacon in his heart, illuminating his path forward. He seemed to be able to feel the pulse of the stars, resonating with his own heartbeat, as if, at that moment, he had become one with the universe.

Every star, every world, is like a grain of sand, a drop of sea water, a branch or leaf.
And the endless truth, the pursuit of "extreme" and "truth", is like a ferry lingering on the horizon, which requires crossing the boundless desert, the endless ocean, and the endless forest to reach.

As the first stop of his journey into another world, the weakness of this plane of existence made him feel unfamiliar, as if intentionally. In the disordered turbulence of another time and space, the War King's Order that protected and bound him more or less affected the direction of his progress in the other time and space.

A fragile world for mending;
The general world is used for recovery;

A fine world to conquer.
Chen Zhou's gaze continued to gaze at the starry sky outside the window, but his thoughts had unconsciously returned to his own world. As a time traveler, he possessed a transcendental understanding of everything in this world.

In his eyes, the world's power system, resource distribution, and historical trajectory are nothing more than chess pieces on a chessboard, and he is the one holding the chess pieces.

When Huo Wuji and the Golden Claw God appeared, the chess game began to freeze, and the rotten and outdated order could no longer resist the trend.

His thoughts completely returned to normal. Chen Zhou did not focus his energy on controlling the world, just like a tiger does not care whether the area it is in belongs to other creatures.

Chen Zhou gently closed the book in his hands and gently stroked the cover with his fingertips, as if sensing the power behind the words. He stood up and walked back to the center of the room, his gaze once again fixed on the night sky outside the window.

The night wind was still blowing gently, bringing a hint of coolness, but his heart was as deep and peaceful as the starry sky.

He wasn't in a rush to act, nor was he eager to prove anything. For him, the future was already under his control. Ye Xinglan's provocation was just a minor incident, not even worth his attention.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Chen Zhou slowly closed his eyes.

Before I knew it, ten years had passed since I traveled to this world.

Ten years passed like a drop in the ocean, fleeting in a flash. Yet, for Chen Zhou, these ten years were the most crucial in his life. From a time traveler ignorant of the world to the Mecha King who now controlled the Mecha Chamber of Commerce and dominated the world, every step he took was incredibly steady.

As he grew older, his dusty heart began to try to blow away the dust hidden in his heart. A soul without emotion cannot reach the highest, and a soul with closed emotions cannot touch the truth.

Chen Zhou knew this very well, so he did not reject the gradually emerging emotional fluctuations, but instead regarded them as a sign of growth.

However, the resurgence of his emotions did not mean he became weak. On the contrary, he came to a clearer understanding that the balance between emotion and reason was the true source of strength. He was neither swayed by emotion nor constrained by reason, but rather integrated the two into a unique wisdom.

Slowly sinking into the darkness, Chen Zhou seemed to be examining himself with his eyes closed. Although he had not recovered, his strong soul was still looking directly at his "self". Everything was displayed in front of him like a kaleidoscope.

The care of the elderly couple, the support of Uncle Tian's friends and neighbors, the appreciation of Lin Ximeng, the respect of Long Hengxu, and the rebuttal of Wu Changkong.
Countless complex emotions and thoughts are mixed together, as if immersed in a huge dye vat of thousands of colors.

Chen Zhou's consciousness drifted in the darkness, as if he were in a boundless ocean. His thoughts rose and fell like waves, sometimes calm, sometimes turbulent. Memories of the past, like scrolls, slowly unfolded in his mind.

He saw the confusion and helplessness he felt when he first arrived in this world, how the kind elderly couple raised him, the care and help from Uncle Tian and the neighbors, and Lin Ximeng's trust and expectations in him. These memories, like pearls, strung together his growth trajectory in this strange world.

Yet, Chen Zhou didn't wallow in these memories. His consciousness remained clear, as if he were standing by, observing everything calmly. He knew that while these emotions and memories were important, they couldn't hinder his progress. On the contrary, they were the source of his strength, the foundation of his foothold in this world.

As his thoughts deepened, Chen Zhou's consciousness gradually reached a deeper level. He saw the darkness and light in the depths of his soul, and saw those long-forgotten memories and emotions. He saw his former weakness and fear, but also saw his current determination and composure.

"Whoo~"

"The act of refining the mind is truly extraordinary."

Chen Zhou spoke slowly, his consciousness emerging from the bottom of his heart. The boundless spiritual sea, which was like a vast ocean, was expanding madly under the constant nourishment of the "water" spiritual rune. The soul buried deep in the "spiritual seabed" slightly opened its eyes, and the red-gold eyes were like a sharp sword, piercing the tranquility of the spiritual sea.
