"By the way, bro, I want to ask you a question..."
At this moment, Yu Wei's eyes were full of admiration as he whispered,
"Um, how did you meet Lin Xue'er?"
"Lin Xue'er?"
Lu Xiaobai was slightly taken aback, then said,
"You mean the girl who brought me the medicine today?"
"Yeah!"
Yu Wei chuckled,
"Brother Lu, teach your little bro a trick or two."
"Well..."
Lu Xiaobai rubbed his chin, then said nonchalantly,
"First of all, you have to be handsome..."
"..."
Hearing this, Yu Wei didn't offer any rebuttal.
Although Lu Xiaobai's grades were terrible, he was blessed with good looks. Not only was he tall and straight, but his facial features were also clear and handsome. Before knowing his true identity, Yu Wei had even thought about giving him a directory of wealthy older women as an employment guide...
"Um, Brother Lu, is there a way that doesn't depend on how you look..."
"If your looks aren't enough, make up for it with emotional intelligence!"
Lu Xiaobai said calmly,
"Girls' minds are actually very easy to guess..."
Saying so, he began to talk eloquently, looking extremely experienced.
The admiration in Yu Wei's eyes grew stronger, and he silently used his chip to record the other party's words...
However, after saying a whole bunch of things, Lu Xiaobai's tone suddenly shifted:
"Actually, none of what I just said is important."
"Not... not important?"
"Now, your master will teach you the real trump card!"
Yu Wei's expression shook, and he instantly became serious, ready to memorize the following words by heart.
Lu Xiaobai said solemnly:
"The most crucial thing is that you must be willing to spend ten times the price to buy a stamina recovery potion!"
"Huh? Ah?"
Yu Wei was slightly taken aback and said in a somewhat bewildered tone:
"Brother Lu, don't tell me you paid for the potion Lin Xue'er gave you?"
"What else? Is there such a thing as a free lunch in this world?"
Lu Xiaobai rolled his eyes, a hint of pain flashing in them.
Although he was a direct descendant of the Lu family, he couldn't squander money limitlessly. He only got a hundred thousand Alliance Credits a month, and that potion earlier had directly cost him half a month's living expenses...
"So you don't even know Lin Xue'er?"
"Nonsense!"
Lu Xiaobai glanced at him and said:
"She's ranked first in the grade, and I'm ranked last. How the hell would we interact? Did you really think the head and the tail would echo each other?"
"..."
Yu Wei was silent for a moment before finally asking:
"Then how did she find you?"
"I just posted a heavily rewarded thread on the school forum seeking a child... uh... seeking medicine."
"..."
Yu Wei was completely silenced.
So this was the truth...
"Alright, don't mind these trivial things."
Lu Xiaobai patted the other's shoulder and said heroically:
"Monkey, don't forget our original vow. Our journey is the sea of stars!"
"Brother Lu, that was just a joke from the past. With my current grades, it's impossible for me to get into even a third-rate academy. I can only find a vocational school to learn a special skill to make a living. I guess I'll only be able to stay on the ancestral planet for the rest of my life."
Yu Wei's tone was flat, clearly having long accepted his future.
This was a vast and great era, but it did not belong to mediocre people like him...
"Your bro is here, so I won't allow you to say such depressing things!"
Lu Xiaobai frowned, however, and encouraged:
"The outcome is not yet decided; you and I are both dark horses!"
"..."
Yu Wei shook his head and remained silent.
"There are still more than three months until the Star Exam. Everything can be changed!"
Lu Xiaobai's eyes were full of confidence.
He originally thought he would definitely fail the Star Exam in the future and could only return to the Lu family's main planet to live a miserable playboy life without worrying about food and clothing.
But what he didn't expect was that,
he would get such a heaven-defying golden finger, which instantly gave him the idea of getting into a Starry Sky Academy!
"Brother Lu, you've changed."
Yu Wei looked at Lu Xiaobai's high-spirited appearance, his heart full of astonishment. Then, as if thinking of something, he cautiously said:
"Bro, did your family already pull some strings so that you'll get a perfect score in the Star Exam, enter the top ten Starry Sky Academies, and reach the peak of life from then on..."
"Stop, stop, stop!"
Lu Xiaobai made a timeout gesture and said:
"You really dare to imagine. The Star Exam is personally supervised by the Federal Government. No one can cheat."
"Your old man is a Speaker..."
"That still won't work."
Lu Xiaobai shook his head and said:
"Your Brother Lu is preparing to pass the exam based on his own abilities!"
"..."
Infected by the other's confidence, Yu Wei said somewhat uncertainly:
"Can I really pass?"
"If I say you can do it, then you definitely can!"
Lu Xiaobai patted his shoulder, then changed the subject:
"By the way, Monkey, if you are going to apply for a vocational school in the future, I suggest you take Basic Potioneering!"
"..."
Yu Wei's mouth twitched.
Wasn't this still saying he couldn't do it...
Right at this moment, a hundred-meter-long maglev train stopped at a platform not far away.
"Bro, I'm heading home first."
Yu Wei hurriedly entered the maglev train.
Lu Xiaobai waved his hand, watched the other party enter the train, and turned to walk in another direction.
"Today is a good day..."
With his hands in his pockets, he hummed a cheerful tune, an uncontrollable smile on his face.
Soon, he arrived at an extremely wide plaza.
"Xiao Huo!"
Lu Xiaobai whispered softly to the chip watch on his wrist.
Before long,
a fiery red streak of light suddenly shot out from the underground parking lot of a distant mall. In just a few dozen seconds, it arrived by Lu Xiaobai's side.
It was impressively a flying machine brimming with a high-tech aura!
Although his old man didn't let him expose his identity, as a direct descendant of the Lu family, his food, clothing, housing, and transportation were still quite luxurious...
"Go home."
Lu Xiaobai climbed in and lay comfortably on the seat.
Boom—
The tail of the flying machine spewed flame-like currents, instantly rising high into the sky and heading straight for the city center.
"Two Star Points, sweet..."
Lu Xiaobai opened his information panel again, his heart filled with excitement.
He glanced at the Star Skills and Special Skills he had mastered, and without any hesitation, he directly added the two Star Points to the Basic Body Cultivation Method!
In an instant,
his understanding of the cultivation method went up by two levels again, and the level on the panel subsequently reached level four, instantly surpassing countless peers!
"Level four cultivation method, even Great Demon King Nangong is only at this level..."
Lu Xiaobai chuckled and muttered to himself:
"I guess there are no more than twenty students in the entire grade at this level, and perhaps only the top ten people have reached it..."
Who could have thought that in just one short day, his cultivation method would take a direct triple jump, instantly leaping from the bottom of the rankings to the top tier!
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.”
world slacker. But a genius female disciple just had to get clingy, insisting that he take her as a disciple. Not only that, she was always making advances on him, thoroughly disrupting his peaceful slacker life...
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
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."
