Is this NPC even playable if it's not nerfed?

Chapter 151 The Princess Pays New Year's Greetings, the Fox Comes to the Door

“Your Highness, the young lady of the Chen family is different. Her talent is unique in the past three thousand years. She is ranked second on the list of geniuses because there is Lu Yuan above her.”

"If it weren't for Lu Yuan, she would be number one."

Unlike players, the natives of this world do not have the ability to directly view the specific information of those ranked.

However, they can also learn the specific ranking of the person depicted in the statue by touching it.

Others may not know Chen Yiyi's background, but they do.

Chen Yiyi's comprehension is truly outrageous.

To be able to comprehend a top-tier martial art from a fake manual is truly absurd.

With such extraordinary talent, if it weren't for the monster Lu Yuan, Chen Yiyi would definitely be number one on the list of geniuses.

"By the way, where is my eldest niece?"

"I remember she was born with a sword heart, and my fifth great-uncle had a very high opinion of her."

Ji Menglu suddenly thought of her eldest brother's daughter, Ji Mengyue, who was much older than her aunt, by several years.

Royal offspring should have been married off long ago at this age, but the eldest niece is an exception.

There are several reasons for this. One reason is that the princess was unwilling. The deceased crown prince only had two children. Ji Mengyue's situation was quite special. She was the crown prince's posthumous child, born several months after the crown prince's death. The princess doted on her.

On the other hand, there is Ji Mengyue's talent. She is born with a sword heart and has the potential to ascend to the heavens. Her marriage will not be easily arranged. Even her father, Ji Mengyue's grandfather, the current Emperor of Dayong, has no right to interfere with Ji Mengyue's marriage.

Unless her sister-in-law is willing to give in.

"Princess Ruyang, ranked eighty-fifth among the prodigies."

"As expected. By the way, in this generation of the royal family, besides my fourth brother, my eldest niece, who else is on the list? Other branches should be included as well."

"No, Your Highness."

"There were a few in previous generations."

The old woman said earnestly.

"Oh, it seems that my fifth great-uncle's choice of my father as emperor was indeed reasonable."

"It will happen."

“My father’s lineage produced three prodigies, that’s impressive.”

Ji Mengluo suddenly teased his father, the emperor, while the nanny standing to the side tried hard to suppress her laughter.

"Ahem, Princess, this is not a good idea."

"If His Majesty finds out, he will be angry."

"Hahaha, just kidding."

"Granny, go and prepare some gifts. We're going to pay our respects to the ancestors."

"I've only ever heard my mother talk about New Year's greetings; I've never actually done it myself."

She had never tried any of the folk customs.

Having finally escaped the palace, she was determined to give it a try.

"Where will Your Highness visit for the New Year?"

"Let's go to the Chen family first, and then we'll take my younger sister to the Lu family to pay our respects tomorrow."

"Very well, I will have someone prepare the gift right away."

……

Wangyou County.

"Peach Blossom Spirit, what exactly is the purpose of these statues for us?"

"Is it simply a display of strength?"

Lu Yuan stood beneath his own statue, curiously asking the Peach Blossom Fairy beside him.

"of course not."

"This is a gift from Heaven."

"It is a treasure that accumulates fortune in the era of super martial arts."

“The concept of destiny is mysterious and profound; it’s difficult for me to explain its function to you.”

"Simply put, the higher your luck, the better your fortune, the faster you cultivate, and the easier it is for you to break through realms. You will be favored by heaven and earth, turn bad luck into good, and be invincible."

"The top 100 on the Supreme Peak Ranking have the opportunity to embark on the path to heaven."

"Your future is not going to be peaceful."

"Those old guys who aren't on the list will go crazy challenging you for a better ranking."

"The Peach Blossom Fairy said with a smile."

"Let's take on the challenge then."

"If they want to die, there's nothing I can do."

Lu Yuan shrugged, indicating that he didn't care.

After all, these so-called experts posed no threat to Lu Yuan; killing them was simply a matter of one punch.

Simple and easy.

"You are so cruel."

"By the way, can we also challenge the Heavenly Pride Ranking?"

Lu Yuan suddenly asked curiously.

"No."

“But people with supernatural abilities can.”

The Peach Blossom Fairy thought for a moment and gave an answer. The Prodigy Ranking is ordained by Heaven; it only ranks people based on their talent. A prodigy's temporary failure will not cause you to rise or fall.

Of course, those with supernatural abilities are an exception.

She was also puzzled by this.

However, according to the strange people who come and go from her temple, these strange people are capable of challenging the Heavenly Pride Ranking.

If the challenge is successful, the extraordinary person will also be ranked on the Prodigy Ranking.

However, during the challenge, the cultivator's cultivation level will be forcibly adjusted to the same level.

Perhaps this is why extraordinary individuals are able to challenge the Heavenly Pride Ranking.

"An extraordinary person."

Lu Yuan thought for a moment, then said nothing.

After all, it's normal for players to challenge the leaderboard.

This is a feature found in most games.

"Huh? Aren't you worried?"

"Aren't you worried that those superhumans will challenge your niece?"

"You are invincible, but your niece is not."

"If she succeeds in the challenge, her ranking will drop."

The Peach Blossom Fairy wondered why Lu Yuan wasn't worried about Chen Yiyi.

"Who in her grade can beat her?"

"Have it?"

"Although her equipment is not high, her cultivation method is special. Even a sixth-rank expert might not be able to defeat her."

Chen Yiyi's skills are too overpowered.

That wind shield was too thick. Her martial arts were a combination of offense and defense, with low energy consumption, and she also had the ability to fight from a distance.

Perfect.

Defeating her is difficult unless you have a very high level and can break through her defense by overwhelming her with superior attributes.

"That's okay."

The Peach Blossom Fairy had nothing to say.

"Lu Yuan."

"Ok?"

"There is something I am not sure whether I should say."

"explain."

"It's a real waste that you're on the list."

"Ok?"

"Luck doesn't mean much to you."

"You cannot cultivate and will not be able to enjoy the benefits of accelerated cultivation."

"Your strength is unmatched; turning misfortune into good fortune is useless to you."

"The only benefit is that it will improve your luck."

"The Peach Blossom Fairy said jokingly."

"Bullshit, I've always been lucky."

Lu Yuan scoffed at the Peach Blossom Fairy's words, saying that his luck needed the blessing of good fortune.
Please, even without the luck of the rankings, he's still incredibly lucky.

Do you even understand the value of the guaranteed reward for killing spirit monsters?

luck?

What I, Lu, have in abundance is luck.

"Sand sculpture."

"Peach Blossom Spirit, what did you say?"

“I didn’t say anything, I just complimented Officer Lu on his good looks.”

"Hmm, not bad, you have good taste."

Lu Yuan gave the Peach Blossom Fairy an approving look.

……

The mountains and forests outside Wangyou County.

Suddenly, pink smoke appeared.

A small red fox emerged from the smoke.
