"Are the human starfields all this dangerous?"
Yu Wei swallowed hard.
He hadn't expected the appearance of the Star Zerg to be anything less than a rare occurrence. Didn't this mean he might encounter them again in the future?
Just then, Lu Xiaobai's words made his expression change drastically.
"By the way, Monkey, let me remind you to be careful lately. Although the Star Suppression Army killed three more demonic bugs, I have a feeling there are still Star Zerg on the Ancestral Planet!"
Hearing this, Yu Wei said with a look of terror,
"Brother Lu, no way, even the Star Suppression Army couldn't find them..."
"The Star Zerg are extremely good at disguising themselves, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to silently bypass the Ancestral Planet's planetary defense system. It's normal that the Star Suppression Army can't find them."
"Furthermore, the Star Zerg operate in squads. It's impossible for a Star Zerg squad to only have four demonic bugs..."
Lu Xiaobai was a direct descendant of the Lu family, so the inside information he knew was naturally incomparable to that of ordinary people.
"Then aren't we screwed..."
Yu Wei's face turned pale as he said,
"Even the mayor can't beat them. If I run into them, I'm definitely dead meat."
"You don't need to worry too much. The Star Zerg came to the Ancestral Planet with a purpose. They wouldn't actively expose themselves just to kill you. Even I don't have that much charm."
Lu Xiaobai shrugged, looking extremely calm.
Although he was a direct descendant of the Lu family, no one would want to kill him. Even the Lu family's enemies wouldn't make a move.
After all, he was simply too weak. Killing him wouldn't affect the Lu family's strength in any way. At the same time, he was currently the youngest direct descendant of the Lu family, and even Ancestor Lu doted on him extremely.
If anything happened to him, it would only draw the frantic revenge of the entire Lu family...
Sometimes, being weak really meant having the upper hand...
However, although this was the logic of normal people, he still brought Ah Da to school. After all, what if those Star Zerg went crazy...
"If that's the case, then I'm relieved."
Hearing this, the tension in Yu Wei's heart finally settled down.
He had no background, no talent, and no morals. As a pure youth lacking these three things, those Star Zerg probably wouldn't be insane enough to come after him...
"By the way, Brother Lu, we're testing our vitality this afternoon. You must have improved a lot over the past month, right?"
He suddenly thought of something, a hint of curiosity appearing in his eyes.
"Oh? You can tell?"
Lu Xiaobai raised an eyebrow and asked.
"A feeling, just a feeling!"
Yu Wei scratched his head and said,
"Anyway, I just feel like you've completely transformed, Brother Lu. You have this indescribable aura about you."
"..."
Lu Xiaobai smiled.
He knew this was because his Basic Body Refining Technique had reached the max level.
He was now absorbing stellar energy from the universe at all times, which was equivalent to having an invisible connection with the cosmos. Naturally, this gave him a special aura.
"Class, assemble at the Star Martial Arts Hall!"
Right at this moment,
Du An stood up, calling for the students to get ready for their Star Martial Arts class.
He used to be an extremely arrogant person who looked down on everyone.
But because of Lu Xiaobai, he gradually reined in his arrogance. After all, if someone else in the class was also hiding their identity, wouldn't he be screwing himself over...
Hearing this, everyone left the classroom one after another. Most of them had excitement written on their faces as they discussed among themselves.
"Today is the day we test our Life Force levels. I wonder how much I've grown recently..."
"I've been smashing my own nuts a hundred times a day. I feel like my strength has undergone a qualitative change. Today, I'm destined to shock the world!"
"Is that even a human training method?"
"It's a folk remedy someone from my village told me about, supposedly a secret technique passed down from ancient times. I know it's hard, but this is my daily mission!"
"..."
Lu Xiaobai looked at the boy, his eyes practically overflowing with admiration.
He had met a truly ruthless man...
Nowadays, many people who knew they had no hope of getting into an academy would become desperate and try anything, leading their families to seek out ancient folk remedies. But the problem was, this guy's remedy was way too unorthodox...
Five minutes later,
Everyone gathered inside the Star Martial Hall.
"Same rules as always. Today we test your Life Force strength for the month."
Nangong Ling's expression was indifferent, her eyes completely devoid of expectation.
The class she was in charge of was the most ordinary of the ordinary. Their talent was basically just average. She didn't even need to test their monthly Life Force levels; she already had a rough estimate in her mind.
"Du An, you're up first."
Du An had expected this. Taking a deep breath, he walked up to the testing equipment, which featured a massive hanging punching bag.
The equipment in front of him was exactly the same as the ones in the virtual space, or rather, the latter was modeled directly after the real-world instruments.
Boom!
Du An gathered his breath, clenched his right fist, and threw a vicious punch. The display panel instantly flashed a number:
340 kilograms!
"Du An is so strong! Is his strength level approaching Level 4 Life Force?"
The crowd's expressions immediately shifted in shock, and they couldn't help but exclaim in awe.
Although Du An was extremely arrogant, they had to admit that his strength truly gave him the right to be cocky in this class...
Du An maintained a calm exterior and moved on to test the next category, speed:
10.1 meters per second!
"Hmm?"
Du An furrowed his brows slightly, a hint of dissatisfaction appearing in his eyes.
This was the exact same result as last month.
Soon, he tested his reaction speed, but his performance was even worse. He quickly made a mistake, bringing the test to an early end.
Finally, his overall Life Force score was displayed:
3.7!
"It only increased by 0.2?"
Du An sighed and shook his head.
He had consumed quite a few nutritional supplements last month, and his body refinement technique was at the third level, yet he had only grown this much. The rate of progress was simply too slow.
But there was nothing he could do about it. The higher the Life Force level, the harder it was to improve...
"Next person!"
Nangong Ling shook her head, a trace of disappointment also appearing in her eyes.
At this rate of progress, Du An's hopes of getting into a first-tier academy were even slimmer. Fortunately, he was at least guaranteed a spot in a second-tier academy, which wasn't too bad.
Soon,
the students stepped forward one by one to test their Life Force levels.
For them, there were rarely any opportunities to test themselves normally. After all, this set of equipment was quite expensive, and ordinary families couldn't afford it. As for the public Star Martial Halls out in society, they also charged a fee...
"Life Force Level: 3.3."
"Life Force Level: 3.1."
...
As each person stepped forward to be tested, the displayed vitality levels grew lower and lower, quickly dropping below 2. This was a level that wouldn't even get them into a third-rate academy.
Nangong Ling sighed and said casually,
"Lu Xiaobai, it's your turn. After the test, continue with your physical training. Everyone's workload is increased by fifty percent!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd couldn't help but let out groans of despair.
"What are you all howling for? With these results, I'm too embarrassed to even report them to the grade administration."
Nangong Ling frowned slightly, a hint of impatience creeping into her tone.
This was the first batch of students she had taken on since graduating, yet their results were actually this poor. It truly made her feel a bit frustrated, and she even began to doubt her own teaching abilities...
Seeing that the Great Demon King was angry, the crowd instinctively quieted down, not daring to groan anymore.
Boom!
Right at that moment, a massive explosion rang out, instantly giving everyone a sudden fright!
iemie, male, Race: Moon. Hobby: Collecting anomalies. At first, he thought he possessed two systems: the Crimson Rainbow Moon and the Clear Cold Frost Moon. One day, he discovered that he himself could also become a system for others, holding the chessboard of fate. The Eighth Epoch, also known as the Eternal Moon Epoch. Humans, witches, elves, bloodline descendants, specters, demons, and spirits together compose a new history. Walking the path on behalf of the moon, before he knew it, Chen Miemie's footsteps were followed by all manner of strange and wondrous anomalies. As time passed, many titles circulated about him—The King in Yellow, Lord of Anomalies, Heart of the Eternal Moon, and more. "Me? I'm just a traveler who enjoys collecting interesting creatures," Chen Miemie said.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
