This villain is too popular.

Chapter 335 recalls the fear that I once dominated.

[Real World, Bullet Comment Section]

"Using your future as a bargaining chip against your present self—that's even more ruthless than getting something for nothing. I'm trading myself?"

'The image of the Star Eclipse Sky Eye in Laotian feels increasingly conceptual.'

'I have a feeling this third season is Lao Tian's crowning achievement; I can't think of any reason why he could lose.'

'What if this season is actually the final battle for supremacy in the prison? (laughs)'

With the brief flashback ending, the viewers on the 13th station not only fully understood how the Heavenly Dao artificially controlled the other martial arts towers.

They also clearly understood just how exaggerated the Heavenly Dao's current Star Eclipse Heavenly Eye had become.

Although many viewers had already guessed this from the previous plot.

But it's one thing to make a guess on your own, and quite another to have your conclusion confirmed by the authorities.

While the current production team has answered some questions about the third season, there are still many mysteries surrounding it.

For example, what exactly is the process of the so-called Starry Sky Ladder Ranking Tournament?

For example, what exactly is the use of the precious Qilin Coin mentioned by the Heavenly Dao?

There is no definitive answer to these questions yet; they require gradual exploration.

While viewers were still speculating about the future plot of the third season of "Starshine" based on various clues,

The scene returns to the hotel where Tiandao is.

[Martial Arts Battle at Tiandu, Luxury Hotel]

"Alright, Rin, I'll have Caroline let you know in advance what you need to do next. Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you."

Rin Yagami, who had already reached the door and was about to push it open, couldn't help but twitch at the corner of her eye after hearing Tendo's lazy words behind her.

Wouldn't you feel awkward? I doubt it.
Yagami Rin had reason to believe that those things that Heavenly Dao spoke of as simple in the future would definitely not be as easy as he made them out to be once they fell into his hands.

However, there is one thing about Heaven that is beyond doubt.

That means whatever he sets out to do will eventually succeed.

The plan proposed by Tiandao this time is quite difficult to implement.

But if they succeed, it will not only greatly increase or decrease their combat intensity in the 'Starry Sky Ladder Ranking Tournament', but also maximize their cultivation progress.

After all, the so-called Starry Sky Ladder Ranking Tournament is not as simple as an ordinary challenge; it is more like a huge 'breeding ground'.

Those who can emerge from the 'Starry Sky Ladder' are undoubtedly the best of the best in this era.

In a sense, Tianwu Coins represent the 'potential' of each participant.

The strong get stronger, and the weak get weaker—this is the underlying logic of the 'Starry Sky Ladder'.

Thinking of this, Yagami Rin couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

If everything unfolds as Heaven has predicted, then this year's Starry Sky Ladder will truly become a nightmare for the so-called weak.

After all, she never dreamed that there would be people in this world so heartless as to tax even 'breathing'.

Without real power and skill, it would be impossible to collect such a tax so easily.

But it doesn't matter, I'm not a weak person being exploited anyway.

Let the way of Heaven handle the resistance of the weak; just do your own job well.

With this thought in mind, Rin Yagami decisively pushed open the door and went out.

Huan Qianying, who came with her, said a brief goodbye to Tiandao and Caroline, and then left with Yagami Rin.

At the same time, shortly after Yagami Rin and Gensuke left, Caroline, who hadn't said much until now, finally spoke.

"Heavenly Dao, are you sure you're not going to try to win over anyone else?"

She looked up at Tiandao, her green cat ears twitching slightly as she inquired about Tiandao's opinion.

On her tactical tablet, a number of updated information about the Starchild appeared.

This included the top 12 "Children of the Stars" who passed the final assessment.

As Caroline spoke, her tactical tablet displayed a lot more information about the Children of the Stars.

If the Heavenly Dao were willing, Caroline, who possessed complete information about this group, could help him quickly subdue them and make it easier for him to harvest other 'contestants' and ascend to the Starry Sky Ladder. However, the Heavenly Dao simply smiled and waved his hand at Caroline's suggestion.

“There’s no need, Caroline, because it would be troublesome to win over the rest of them, and in my opinion, they are not worth my personal efforts to win them over.”

"Besides."

Tiandao paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "...Even if we don't contact them, those guys will contact us on their own later."

"After all, once they reach the Heavenly Martial Qilin Tower, if they want to advance further, they'll need my approval."

"Otherwise, I could make sure they can't even get past the simplest first level, right?"

At this point, Tiandao suddenly stood up and walked to the hotel's floor-to-ceiling window.

The martial arts towers in the distance are arranged in a staggered pattern, their light gray bodies reflecting the setting sun, like rows of silent giants standing in various parts of Martial Arts Capital.

In the distance, on the city skyline, the Tianwu Qilin Tower pierces the clouds, its top hidden in the clouds, revealing only half of its bronze-colored body, like a deity descending to earth, exuding an indescribable majesty.

Looking at the magnificent scenery, Tiandao suddenly joked, "Caroline, don't you think this Starry Sky Ladder looks like the base exams we took when we were kids?"

Upon hearing Tiandao's words, Caroline was taken aback at first, and then many scenes from their time at the Ember Base quickly flashed through her mind.

With just a simple comparison, Caroline arrived at a clear conclusion.

"Perhaps the training process the doctor used for us back then was based on the current Starry Sky Ladder."

Although Caroline's tone was not certain, both she and Tiandao knew very well that the assessment process designed by the Doctor in the Embers back then definitely drew inspiration from the current 'Starry Sky Ladder Ranking Tournament' assessment process.

The so-called reference is just a relatively euphemistic way of saying it.

Upon hearing Caroline's reply, Tendou looked out the window again.

As the sun began to set, the outline of the Tianwu Qilin Tower became clearer in the sunset, as if draped in a layer of blood-red gauze.

Gazing at such a beautiful scene, Tiandao's lips curled into a slight smile.

But there was a hint of coldness in that seemingly gentle smile, as if it were mocking something.

"Caroline, if that's the case, then what do you think is the difference between the current Starry Sky Ladder and the Ember Base from back then?"

"Back then, they could only look up to me, and they still can now."

"The only difference is that some guys have bad memories and easily forget their past."

"But it doesn't matter, because I will help them quickly regain their childhood 'memories'."

"For example, the fear that I once controlled."

At this point, Tiandao turned around and gently patted Danica's head, who was still playing video games.

"Let's go see a good show."

Danica, engrossed in her game, rolled her eyes upon hearing this and said somewhat hesitantly, "Can I not go?"

The Heavenly Dao's attitude towards this was very firm.

"No, confiscate it, confiscate it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tiandao put away Danica's game console.

He couldn't help but complain, "Liuli is really something, giving a game console to a little kid. Does she really not know how harmful this thing is to children?"

"I'll have to say a few words to her later."

Seeing that Tendou had taken the game console into his hands, Danica immediately looked to Caroline for help.

Caroline said she couldn't help with this situation.

At the same time, she also felt that Danica was a bit too playful.

After all, with such great talent, she really shouldn't waste her time on virtual games. Instead, she should spend more time learning advanced mathematics and quantum data.

With this in mind, Caroline had an idea.

That means giving Danica some extra lessons.

After all, she's at the perfect age for learning.
