Douluo Continent Villain Simulator: Persecuting Qian Renxue at the Start

Chapter 1 Villain's Life Simulator

"Next." Su Yuntao's slightly tired voice rang out.

Su Cheng silently walked into the center of the six black stones. As the other party poured in their soul power, a pale golden light shone, enveloping them.

A warm feeling seeped in, and he subconsciously reached out his right hand.

Golden light slowly gathered, and a rusty iron sword appeared in his hand.

"Weapon spirit, iron sword." Su Yuntao nodded. Although the sword looked rather shabby, at least it wasn't those blue silver grass and farm tools, which gave him some hope.

"Come on, let's test our soul power."

Upon hearing this, Su Cheng placed his hand on the blue crystal, and a suction force was generated, causing the crystal to emit a faint light.

Su Yuntao said with disappointment, "You have a level 0.5 innate soul power, but at least you have a chance to become a soul master."

"..." Su Cheng's mentality was about to collapse.

He never dared to hope for innate full soul power, after all, he didn't have a titled Douluo father or a 100,000-year-old soul beast mother, nor did he have the chance to get the Xuan Tian Gong technique from Tang San.

But a level 0.5 innate soul power is really...

Su Cheng gave a wry smile.

Fortunately, with the awakening of his martial soul, he felt that the simulator, which had been unable to start before, finally began to respond.

At this moment, Su Yuntao finished all the awakening rituals and walked outside. Seeing this, he temporarily stopped worrying about the issue of innate soul power and hurriedly followed along with the other children.

The gate opened, and Wang Pan, the village chief of Wangsu Village, who had been standing silently outside, hurriedly came forward and asked, "Master, are there any children in the village who will become Soul Masters this year?"

Su Yuntao glanced at him and nodded, saying, "There is one. Although his innate soul power is only 0.5, he still has a chance to become a soul master."

"Grandpa Village Chief." Su Cheng quickly went over.

"Xiao Cheng, has your soul power awakened?"

"Yes."

"That's great." Wang Pan patted his head, not paying attention to the issue of innate soul power. "Our village has a spot for a work-study program at the Notting City Junior Soul Master Academy. Would you like to go to the school to learn about soul masters and martial souls?"

"I'm willing, thank you Grandpa Village Chief," Su Cheng said quickly.

"Okay, there's still a month until school starts. You should prepare well first, and I'll go with you when the time comes."

After sending him home, village chief Wang Pan left.

Su Cheng was adopted by an old widower in the village. After his adoptive father died, he lived on his own.

Because of his precocious behavior, Wang Pan wasn't too worried.

Sitting on the bed, Su Cheng tried to mobilize the soul power within his body.

As the energy circulated, the true appearance of the simulator, which he could only vaguely sense before but could never truly touch, was finally revealed to him.

A light blue panel unfolded in front of me.

[Villain Life Simulator starting up...]

Please select the final objective for this life simulation:

[1. Establish a new sect to replace the three upper sects. Mission reward: Benign mutation of Martial Soul; Difficulty: B]

[2. Seize imperial power and ascend the throne of the Heaven Dou Empire or the Star Luo Empire. Mission Reward: Benign Martial Soul Mutation, Innate Full Soul Power; Difficulty: A]

3. Destroy the Spirit Hall. Mission Reward: Twin Spirit Souls; Difficulty: S

"A villain's life simulator?" Su Cheng was slightly taken aback before continuing to read.

He didn't really care whether it was a good guy or a bad guy; in his view, it was just a simulation.

However, the rewards for completing the task are indeed very tempting.

"But this is way too difficult! Aren't there any beginner benefits?"

Su Cheng was shocked as he looked at the three options on the panel.

To be honest, he felt that none of these tasks were likely to be completed.

Don't be fooled by how the three upper sects seem to be making a fortune in the original story. They are still top-tier forces with several titled Douluo under their command and have been operating on the continent for hundreds of years.

This is still the easiest option.

Fortunately, there was no penalty for failing the simulation mission, otherwise he might not have dared to try it.

"After being in this world for so many years, I'm finally able to use it once. I guess I'll have to wait until I get my first spirit ring to have this opportunity again."

Su Cheng looked conflicted.

With his innate soul power of level 0.5, it's unknown how long it would take him to cultivate to level 10.

"Damn it, all three are difficult anyway, might as well max out the difficulty. Ten years of working is still just working, might as well go all in and live in the palace! Let's gamble!"

After hesitating for a long time, he decided to go straight to the third task.

"Since we've been given the option, there's no reason why we shouldn't have a chance. Let's treat the first time as an experiment. If we fail, we can just honestly train until we reach level 10! Even Yu Xiaogang could train to level 29 with only 0.5 level soul power, so there's no reason why I can't."

[You have selected the final mission objective for this simulation: Destroy the Spirit Hall.]

[You can choose your initial character:]

[1. The youngest elder of the Spirit Hall, settlement bonus: 0-20%]

[2. Ordinary Soul Masters not from the Spirit Hall receive a bonus of 50%-100% upon settlement.]

[3. A useless Soul Master with innate Soul Power of 0.5, the settlement bonus is 150%-300%]

You can choose three talents from the following ten as your initial talents:

[Direct descendant of the three upper sects, possesses innate full soul power, twin martial souls, mutated martial soul, 100,000-year soul ring (ninth soul ring), a true scholar, a member of royal nobility, a veteran actor, a medical genius, and a sword genius]

"Hiss, no wonder replacing the top three sects is only a B-level difficulty. With this initial character and talent, it doesn't seem that difficult to do."

Looking at the refreshed panel, Su Cheng rubbed his still somewhat immature cheeks, feeling a little regretful.

However, at this point, a careful choice must be made.

"Although the 150% settlement bonus is tempting, in this world, without bloodline and strength, you can't do anything."

As everyone knows, there are no useless Soul Masters in Douluo Continent, only useless Martial Souls.

"A direct descendant of the three upper sects, innate full soul power, and twin martial souls—that seems to be the optimal solution, isn't that exactly Tang San's configuration...?"

After a moment's thought, he decided to choose to become a Soul Master from one of the three upper sects, and then start by combining twin martial souls and innate full soul power.

He immediately stopped.

Wait, I almost fell for it...

"What is Tang San? He's the chosen one of Douluo Continent, a cheat code from heaven, with the God of Asura and the God of the Sea standing behind him. If it weren't for this crucial factor, he would have been hammered to death by the Spirit Hall long ago..."

Su Cheng clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and said, "So this seems like the optimal solution, but it's actually a dead end. If the simulator perfectly mirrored reality, I certainly wouldn't be the chosen one. But when it comes to dealing with the Spirit Hall, I have an absolute advantage!"

His eyes gradually brightened. "I know the script. The structure of the Spirit Hall, the personality flaws of the big bosses—that's what I should be focusing on. Relying on brute force to fight Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, and Qian Daoliu? That's a pipe dream!"

Once he made up his mind, he had already decided what to choose.
