They didn't beat me enough.
No wonder Nan Shuishui apologized profusely in her letter.
……
Watching a dozen powerful figures rise into the sky in the distance, clad in flying soul tools and heading towards the horizon, Lu Cheng remained calm. These were Body Sect experts heading to support the front lines of the Mingdou Mountains.
He didn't do anything shady. Among them was a Grand Elder, a Limit Douluo, three Super Douluos, and three Title Douluos, which was quite a powerful force. Even Shrek Academy probably couldn't find anything to criticize them for.
His only instruction to the elders was to fight independently and ensure that the Mingdou Mountains were not breached.
He exhaled a breath of stale air and looked away.
After returning this time, he made a special trip to see his sister and Jiang's mother. His sister was quite enthusiastic, and even hinted that she might be a little eager at her age. However, he refused for the time being, since Jiang's mother was watching. Although she had a slight aunt-like smile and was even willing to play matchmaker, she was still quite uncomfortable. He decided to wait until after the simulation and when he had some free time.
However, before leaving, he caught a glimpse of the beauty's disappointed eyes and secretly kissed her red lips, as if to claim his reward in advance.
I went to Tang Sect again.
The Tang Clan is now at its zenith, considered one of the top powers in the entire Tiandou City. Not only does it have the backing of the Body Sect, but even the Tiandou Royal Family, recognizing the talents of Lu Cheng and his sect leader Tang Ya, has given it preferential treatment. The number of disciples under its tutelage has instantly expanded from a few dozen to over a thousand.
Tang Ya accepted all comers without regard to talent, only to character.
It gives one a sense of universal education.
Furthermore, the plaque and statue in the Ancestral Hall do not depict Tang San, but rather the ancestor of the Tang Clan from another world.
To Lu Cheng's surprise, she was more radical than he had imagined. She refused to acknowledge Tang San and exposed his actions to the public, labeling him a complete villain.
After a passionate encounter, Tang Ya reluctantly saw Lu Cheng off the next day, her beautiful eyes filled with spring-like affection.
He went to find Xiao Xiao again, but found that the girl had gone back to her family to visit relatives and was not in the Body Sect, so he didn't say anything.
There were also Wu Feng and Ning Tian, the two of them acting strangely. Their expressions were off when they saw him. He remembered that when they participated in the competition in Mingdu, the two of them seemed to have some issues...
Wu Feng didn't try to hide anything and explained with a flushed face.
The experience after that was indeed good, but Ning Tian was too shy to cultivate with her, so he simply practiced diligently on his own.
"So you're suppressing it?" Lu Cheng asked with a strange expression, glancing at Wu Feng, whose pretty face was flushed and who seemed rather awkward.
“You’re the one who’s suppressing your emotions, you…” Wu Feng retorted subconsciously, but his tone was somewhat hesitant. He licked his lips, afraid of upsetting Lu Cheng and causing him to run away again. He didn’t know how long he would have to wait if he missed this opportunity. He nodded, “It seems so.”
Lu Cheng didn't stand on ceremony and gave the two some pointers on their cultivation.
After the exchange, the group rested for a while. The two beauties each had their own unique qualities. One had a fair complexion like jade, with snow-white and delicate skin, long light golden hair, and a gentle temperament. The other had a tall and slender figure and outstanding talent in cultivation.
"call……"
Exhale a breath of stale air and bring your attention back to reality.
[Please select talent points to allocate]
[Talent, family background, appearance, luck (25+).]
Lu Cheng sat cross-legged in the bamboo forest, pondering how to allocate skill points.
Is talent important?
Well, it is indeed quite important. After much hesitation, Lu Cheng still chose to max out his talents. After all, talents played a decisive role in the last two simulations. If the talents he chose in the last two simulations were just average, he would not have been blackmailed by Shrek Academy, valued by the Holy Spirit Cult, and would not have been able to get such a high score.
Without some strength and cultivation, trying to make a splash in this world is harder than climbing to heaven.
"As for family background, I'd give it a 5 out of 10," Lu Cheng said thoughtfully.
My family background was basically not used in the last two times; it was just average.
"Looks: 70%; luck: 30%."
It's much better than the first time.
Lu Cheng took a deep breath and rubbed his hands together.
[Simulation begins!]
Chapter 251 Simulation Begins (Douluo Continent I Timeline)
In a secluded courtyard within the Heaven Dou City, you were born. Your parents were minor nobles in the city.
[At the age of six, you awakened the Golden Dragon King Martial Soul within your family. It is a top-tier dragon-type Martial Soul known for its physical strength, possessing innate full soul power. Although no one in the family had ever heard of this Martial Soul before, the strength it displayed was enough to make everyone happy. You became a well-known genius in Heaven Dou City, and even Emperor Xue Ye personally summoned you...]
Lu Cheng paused upon seeing this, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
What the heck? How did I end up back in Douyi?
It seems like the timeline has been stretched out quite a bit this time...
Lu Cheng stroked his chin, his eyes narrowing slightly. Based on the nature of this simulator, the timeline must be related to the female protagonist. And based on his awakened martial soul, he had a vague guess in his mind.
The Silver Dragon King, who is asleep in the Star Dou Great Forest.
However, the Silver Dragon King only awakened 20,000 years later, during the Legend of the Dragon King era. Why did the simulator start with the Douyi era?
Lu Cheng was somewhat puzzled, but since he was already there, he continued reading.
From the age of six, you displayed astonishing talent and "high emotional intelligence," quickly catching the eye of the Heaven Dou Royal Family's higher-ups. At the same time, people from the Spirit Hall also tried to win you over. However, you are adept at navigating social situations and handled everything smoothly. You don't want to join any particular faction yet; your family's power is too weak. Facing behemoths like the Heaven Dou Royal Family and the Spirit Hall, a slight misstep could lead to annihilation.
At eight years old, you advanced to level twenty-one. You were astonished to discover that the scarcity of resources in this era was unimaginable to people ten thousand years later. The common elixirs and various whale glues and immortal herbs that were almost fully developed in that era were unheard of in this era. You could only strengthen your body through the secrets of the Body Sect...
[At ten years old, you advanced to level twenty-seven. Although this is a snail's pace for you, to the people of this continent, you are a once-in-a-million genius. Even Qian Xunji, who also possesses innate full soul power, has been far surpassed by you. At the same age, he is only at level twenty-one.]
Lu Cheng stroked his chin, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes. It was actually Qian Xunji? And it was Qian Xunji in his juvenile form. So that means that Ah Yin had not yet taken human form, and Tang Hao had not even been born yet. It was ten thousand years ago, and the timeline was even earlier.
Is it to ensure his healthy development?
Lu Cheng raised an eyebrow. This time, without the Holy Spirit Cult, the ultimate and invincible villain, and without the Shrek Academy group of hypocrites, there should be no one plotting against him behind his back, right?
Although the Spirit Hall may change, that will only happen after Bibi Dong takes power. This little girl, who is only a tiny child now, is definitely not capable of setting up a scheme.
In the original novel, Emperor Xueye was quite normal, with no possibility of him being abnormal or insane.
The only variable lies in the soul beast race.
Since Gu Yuena is the core, could it be that... the beast tide will be launched ahead of schedule?
Lu Cheng's eye twitched, and he slapped himself.
What does "jinxed" mean?
We've been living a comfortable life for too long, and we're getting bored.
At age eleven, you and Qian Xunji became close friends due to some unexpected events. The reason was that on the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest, soul beasts attacked a village. As the young master of the Spirit Hall, he was filled with righteous indignation and went to exterminate the beasts. However, unexpectedly, a 100,000-year-old soul beast appeared, luring away his guard, a Title Douluo powerhouse, leaving him in danger. You fought alongside him and saved his life from a 5,000-year-old Human-Faced Demon Spider.
Seeing this once proud, spoiled young master now lying on the ground, crying and terrified, you couldn't help but laugh.
At the age of twelve, you advanced to the Soul Master level, breaking the record of the Heaven Dou Empire and becoming the youngest Soul Master genius. You were successfully received by Emperor Xue Ye, who personally bestowed upon you the title of Baron.
After much deliberation, you decided to join the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy. However, on your second day there, you unexpectedly encountered a familiar face. Qian Xunji walked up to you arrogantly, patted your shoulder, and laughed heartily, "Trying to shake me off?" You felt a little helpless; this guy still seemed like a stubborn tsundere...
Lu Cheng's expression was strange.
Could it be that the reason he didn't join the Spirit Hall was because he found Qian Xunji annoying?
It's quite a unique perspective.
The scene flashed before my eyes.
Back to the simulation.
At fifteen, you broke through to the Soul King realm and were bestowed the title of Earl by Emperor Xue Ye of the Heavenly Dou Empire. You've lost count of how many times you've broken through the Empire's records. All you know is that countless noble daughters in the entire Heavenly Dou City are watching you intently. You're like a delicious dish, attracting their lustful glances, some even openly and aggressively...
[But you don't care. In this era, your only goal is the Silver Dragon King. The others are just common women; there's no need for you to waste your time on them. In the same year, the Continental Soul Master Tournament began. You and Qian Xunji were on the same team, and the two of you crushed all the academies, including... the Spirit Hall team.]
The two of you are like twin stars, shining brightly, but of course, you are the captain.
You hold up the trophy that belongs to the champion of the All-Continent Soul Master Tournament, looking at Qian Xunji opposite you. He is equally excited. The era belonging to the two of you is about to begin.
At eighteen, you went to Dugu Bo's herb garden. Because of your terrifying talent and mastery of poisons, you helped him detoxify, successfully forming a close friendship with him despite the age gap. You also took a few immortal herbs from him, and after returning, you gave one to Qian Xunji. In the same year, you broke through to the Soul Douluo level, while he also broke through to the Soul Saint level.
The spirit beasts around the Star Dou Great Forest are becoming increasingly rampant. You and he leave Heaven Dou City together and begin traveling across the continent. During this time, you encounter many people and events, and witness the devastation of villages ravaged by spirit beasts. Qian Xunji secretly vows to eradicate all spirit beasts upon returning to the Spirit Hall, but you sense that things are not so simple.
At twenty-one, you broke through to the Title Douluo level, possessing terrifying power that even the level 98 Golden Crocodile Douluo could hardly shake. Qian Xunji followed closely behind, breaking through to the Soul Douluo level. Urged by a letter from Qian Daoliu, he decided to return to the Spirit Hall, while you chose to travel to the far north to see the Snow Empress.
At twenty-two, you met the Snow Empress and gave her the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow, but her attitude towards you was complicated. She seemed to be suppressing her killing intent, and in the end, she simply drove you away.
[You were puzzled, but you still returned to Heaven Dou City. At the same time, you learned another piece of news: Qian Xunji, who had succeeded Qian Daoliu as Pope, had taken on a beautiful disciple named Bibi Dong, who also possessed innate full soul power and twin martial souls.]
Inside the Spirit Hall.
Qian Xunji, looking smug, pointed with a grin at Bibi Dong beside him, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had a handsome face that showed signs of unfamiliarity and nervousness as she clutched the hem of her skirt.
"Look, this is my apprentice... Not bad, right?"
Chapter 252 A Twisted Fate
"Your apprentice?"
Lu Cheng glanced disdainfully at Qian Xunji, then at the somewhat unfamiliar girl whose pretty face showed a hint of fear. After a long silence, he patted Qian Xunji's shoulder and asked, "Where did you pick her up from?"
"You could guess that?" Qian Xunji stared in disbelief, then said somewhat boredly, "From a small town on the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest that was affected by the beast tide, her whole family died, leaving her alone hiding in a cave. I found her and brought her back on the way."
“…” Lu Cheng’s eye twitched.
He glanced at Qian Xunji with mixed feelings, unsure whether to comfort her or offer advice. But seeing that although the girl was timid, at least she hadn't been led astray by that blond-haired Yu Xiaogang, he abandoned the idea and nodded slightly: "Not bad..."
"Both martial souls are spiders. You can add a spirit ring to one martial soul first. After reaching the Title Douluo level, you can add a spirit ring to the second martial soul. At that time, you can directly add a ten-thousand-year or even a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring." Lu Cheng pondered for a moment and still kindly gave a couple of pointers.
Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes widened for a moment as she looked at Qian Xunji.
"Really? You don't have twin martial souls, how do you know so much?" Qian Xunji asked with a suspicious look.
"Believe it or not." Lu Cheng smiled and ignored the guy.
"By the way... when are you going to take on a disciple?" Qian Xunji waved his hand, signaling Bibi Dong to step down. He then leisurely lay on his Spirit Hall Pope's throne and said jokingly, "Countless eyes are watching you, and some have even bribed me, hoping that you, the Golden Dragon King, will open your eyes and take a look at the geniuses of this continent."
"I'm not interested in taking on apprentices," Lu Cheng said calmly.
Bibi Dong cautiously retreated to the doorway and saw her Pope, who was above all others, talking to a young man of the same generation. A look of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she felt more awe towards Lu Cheng.
"By the way, how about becoming an elder in my Spirit Hall?" Qian Xunji winked and said, "Following me will give you a bright future."
"You think you can get rid of me with just an elder from the Spirit Hall? You'd be more like a Grand Elder." Lu Cheng chuckled.
"Sigh!" Qian Xunji suddenly raised his voice, excitedly saying, "Then it's settled, no backing out. Grand Elder it is, I'll give you the same authority as my Pope. You can mobilize anyone in the Spirit Hall, except for the Hall of Offerings, which is still my father's territory, we haven't taken it over yet..."
