My Text-Based Cultivation Game

"Alright, alright, stop writing, everyone. Time to collect the papers!"

The Golden Core proctor with the small mustache urged them on while casually using his object manipulation technique to collect the exam papers in front of each outer disciple into his storage bag.

The first round of the competition has ended. Please wait a moment; your results will be displayed on your bib.

Finally, it's over. Yunyang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Damn, playing a cultivation game made him feel like he was taking a final exam.

That's really scary.

Fortunately, there was Su Muxue.

No, what if there are similar exams in the outer sect competition later? I must cling to Su Muxue's leg, the academic genius version!

[You decide to follow in the footsteps of the top student Su Muxue and quickly walk to her side, but then you discover that Su Muxue is being talked to by two outer disciples.]

This is quite rare; it seems to be the first time I've ever seen Su Muxue speak to a Xuantian Sect disciple other than myself.

NPCs are interacting with each other!

Should you go and join the fun?

Yunyang decided to join in the fun and quickly went forward to see what the NPCs were talking about.

[You went to join the fun, and overheard that the three outer disciples of the Xuantian Sect seemed to want to invite Su Muxue to meet someone.]

Su Muxue coldly rejected them.

However, these three outer disciples of the Xuantian Sect were relentless, clinging to Su Muxue as if they wouldn't leave until she agreed.

At this point, you would choose:

Option 1: Pretend you didn't see it and walk away.

Option 2: Go up and help Su Muxue out of this predicament.

[Option 3: Use Leo Flying Kick on the three outer disciples who are bothering Su Muxue!]

Yunyang understood the first two options; one was a retreat, the other a move forward—a normal two-way choice, but…

What is this third option?

Leo's flying kick?

Are you going to play Ultraman?

but……

Yunyang really wanted to try out the Leo Flying Kick.

Being handsome is a lifelong thing.

Use Leo Kick on them!

After Yunyang made his choice, the game character on the screen walked directly in the opposite direction from Su Muxue.

Leo's flying kick definitely requires a running start.

"..."

Su Muxue glanced at Yun Yang as he left out of the corner of her eye, her expression turning slightly cold.

Heh, what am I expecting on my own?

This guy's cowardly nature hasn't changed at all.

We still have to rely on ourselves...

"Leo's Flying Kick!!!"

What the heck?

Just as Su Muxue was feeling disheartened, she suddenly heard a shout that echoed throughout the empty palace. The next instant, she saw Yunyang transform into a white blur, his left leg bent and his right leg kicking out like a sports car speeding at 120 miles per hour...

No, he kicked the three outer disciples who were entangled with Su Muxue.

"Bang!"

The kick had a remarkable effect; the three outer disciples were sent flying backward, crashing into a palace pillar and lying on the ground, their fate unknown.

He probably didn't die. Cultivators aren't that fragile.

Turning around, Yunyang tossed his head and blew on his bangs towards Su Muxue, "How about it, handsome, right?"

"Pfft!"

Looking at the flamboyant Yunyang, Su Muxue couldn't help but burst out laughing.

That smile was like ice and snow melting and peach blossoms blooming. Although it was only confined to a small screen, it captivated Yunyang, who was watching in front of the screen.

This is the first time I've seen Su Muxue smile.

She looks quite pretty when she smiles.

Oh no! How could I have fallen for a two-dimensional character?!

No, no, Yunyang shook his head. How did he become a two-dimensional being?

Although I am indeed a fan of anime and manga...

One was outside the screen, and the other was inside the screen, but because of this "Leo Flying Kick!!!", their eyes met across the screen.

In an instant, those outer disciples who had been drawn by Yunyang's kick and were just about to leave the examination hall became mere background figures.

Why does this seem to be developing into an idol drama?

All that's missing is some pink cherry blossom atmosphere effects.

"Hey, what's wrong?"

At this point, the onlookers also started discussing the matter.

"It looks like someone just started fighting with magic."

"What kind of fighting is this? I just saw it. That senior brother dressed as a first-class outer disciple kicked those three outer disciples flying with one kick."

"Is this guy a body cultivator? What kind of technique did he use to knock out three outer sect disciples with just one kick?"

"I think it's called... Leo's Flying Kick?"

Leo's flying kick? What kind of magic is that?

"Hey! What are you doing? What are you doing?"

A sharp, even somewhat effeminate voice rang out from afar, followed by a cultivator flying over the surrounding outer sect disciples.

Looking in the direction of the voice, they saw it was the bearded monk who had been proctoring the exam earlier.

Well, the two tufts of mustache on his lip, coupled with his thin face, make him look like the kind of evil villain who would cause trouble at crucial moments.

That face is the perfect villain's face.

"Hey, what's going on?"

After landing beside Yunyang, the bearded cultivator asked.

"Who are you?"

Yunyang had just selected the option to ask who this person was, but before he could finish his question, Su Muxue quickly stepped in front of him and bowed to the bearded cultivator, saying, "Greetings, Elder Wang."

"You're not bad, little girl, at least you have some discernment. But let me tell you, you're quite pretty, so how did you end up with such a clueless partner? You can't even tell who I am from the clothes I'm wearing?"

As he spoke, the bearded cultivator patted his clothes, "I am Wang Boqi, the Grand Elder of the Outer Sect and a Golden Core cultivator!"

Should I know this?

Well, Yunyang had long noticed that the clothing worn by disciples and elders of different ranks was different, but he had never seen the specific clothing worn by each rank.

Of course, that's not the point. The point is your name...

Wang... Boqi?

Well... what a name full of flaws.

Yunyang really wanted to ask, does your name match your appearance?

How is this different from wanting to name your game character "Awesome"?

Wang Boqi frowned slightly at Yunyang's strange look. "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a handsome male cultivator like me before?"

"..."

Yunyang was speechless. Was this person a little too narcissistic?

"I'm sorry." Su Muxue replied politely and generously, "Elder Wang, please forgive me. My... Daoist partner is only a beginner and doesn't know much. I hope Elder Wang will be understanding."

"Hmph! Just started? You've already reached the ninth level of Qi Refining? You're lying without thinking." Wang Boqi gestured towards the three outer disciples lying on the ground and asked, "He beat those three up, didn't he?"

"Yes, but..."

"Hmph!" Elder Wang sneered. "No buts. In broad daylight, under the clear sky, not only did you injure your fellow disciples, but you also publicly displayed your affections here? I, Wang Boqi, can't stand men like you..."

"But Elder Wang, don't you even know who those three people are?"

"Hmm? Who is it?" The Golden Core cultivator frowned slightly, walked to the three outer disciples who had been kicked away, bent down to look at their faces, and immediately fell silent.

"Oh, it's these three people. Then it's alright."

Then Wang Boqi waved his hand at Yunyang and Su Muxue, "Alright, alright, these three are really no good. You two can leave now. But don't show affection in broad daylight in the future. I can't stand it anymore if you do it too much."

Huh? Is that all?

Yunyang, sitting in front of the screen, was a little confused. This wasn't a routine thing!

Shouldn't there be some kind of false accusation plot where the character refuses to yield, defies the Golden Core cultivator, demonstrates extraordinary strength, attracts the favor of a powerful figure behind the scenes, and then gets protection? How come this somewhat sleazy-looking Golden Core cultivator released him after just one glance at the three of them?

This doesn't make sense!

Despite your cute name and grotesque appearance, you're actually quite discerning about right and wrong?

Wang Boqi, you're like a master of clear soup!

"Don't just stand there, let's go." Su Muxue grabbed Yunyang's hand and squeezed through the crowd of outer disciples to walk outside.

Meanwhile, among the outer disciples watching, several outer cultivators looked in the direction Yunyang and Su Muxue had left, quickly squeezed through the crowd, and chased after Yunyang and Su Muxue.
