【Wu Yue flew on her sword, disappearing into the distance like a shooting star.】
【Baili Su summoned his tamed eagle beast, grabbed its talons, and let the eagle carry him into the air.】
【Wang Mingbai chose to take a boat. It was a luxurious cruise ship rowed by over a hundred boatmen, whose arms were nearly breaking from the exertion.】
【Long Yang gave a loud shout.】
【"Auspicious Cloud Divine Art!"】
【A seven-colored auspicious cloud flew under his feet, carrying him straight away.】
【As Long Yang passed by you, he said.】
【"Brother Chen, do you need a ride? Once we reach the island, we can compete fairly."】
【You politely declined.】
【"There's no need. I have my own way to cross the sea."】
【You took out the Star Shuttle that Zhao Hanzhou had gifted you, tossed it onto the sea surface, and stepped onto it. Like a speedboat, it sped away, leaving a trail of pure white waves behind.】
【You had made further improvements to the internal array formations of the Star Shuttle that Zhao Hanzhou had already modified.】
【Now, this Star Shuttle was an all-terrain vehicle capable of traveling on water, land, and in the air.】
【Watching your dashing figure depart, Long Yang nodded repeatedly.】
【"Brother Chen is as effortless as ever. He will be my greatest rival this time... Brother Chen, wait for me!"】
【The twenty of you arrived at Tide Wind Island one after another.】
【The first challenge was finding the Holy Son Token and the Holy Maiden Token.】
【There were usually two methods.】
【First, find a way to search for it yourself, using divine sense, spiritual weapons, or cultivation techniques—each showing off their own abilities.】
【Second, camp at the Sea-Calming Divine Towers and rob those who used the first method.】
【However, the island was not small. Aside from the referees flying in the sky, there were only the twenty of you on the island.】
【There were four Sea-Calming Divine Towers located in the east, south, west, and north.】
【If you camped at the wrong one, it would be gg.】
【Therefore, at the very beginning, everyone chose to search on their own.】
【You summoned the Myriad Soul Golden Banner and unleashed the classic move: Myriad Ghosts Going to the Market.】
【As the Myriad Soul Banner had evolved, this move had also evolved.】
【Previously, releasing the soul entities from the banner to gather intelligence and gain vision required you to command them manually.】
【Now, you directly scattered three thousand souls, distributing them evenly across the island. Using swarm control, establishing a mesh topology, aligning the underlying logic, and refining the granularity, you formed a comprehensive combo.】
【In human terms: it was more efficient, clearer, more multidimensional, and much easier.】
【You did not plan to look for the Holy Son Token, nor did you plan to camp next to the Sea-Calming Divine Towers.】
【Instead, you used the Myriad Ghosts Going to the Market to monitor the entire field. Whoever found the Holy Son Token, you would rob them directly!】
【"Let them take their time searching."】
【You jumped onto a tree and closed your eyes to rest.】
【Not long after.】
【"Huh? Found it?"】
【Your surveillance network transmitted an image back to you. You saw someone find something inside a rock.】
【It was Wu Yue, but what she found was the Holy Maiden Token. It would be useless for you to steal it.】
【The token was half the height of a person and constantly emitted a dazzling blue light. Judging by Wu Yue's expression as she picked it up, the thing was probably very heavy.】
【Wu Yue tried shoving it into her spatial ring for quite a while, only to realize it could not be stored inside.】
【"That's a walking target."】
【You understood now; the finals were essentially still PVP.】
【Carrying such a large, heavy, and unhideable object—one could imagine how conspicuous it would be.】
【Whoever obtained it would be attacked by everyone else.】
【Wu Yue prepared to deliver the Holy Maiden Token to a Sea-Calming Divine Tower.】
【Unfortunately, all her luck had been used up finding the token. Near the tower she chose, three female candidates were lying in ambush.】
【Although Wu Yue was a peerless genius, possessed the Bright Moon Holy Body, and had unparalleled combat prowess after cultivating her sword dao inheritance.】
【But fighting one against three, coupled with the burden in her hands, made it very difficult for her to gain an advantage in battle.】
【They were all experts in the Spirit Condensation and Spirit Sea realms, so the commotion of their fight was quite significant.】
【Seeing that more people were about to converge on them, Wu Yue made a prompt decision. With a single sword strike, she cleaved a chasm in the ground and chose to retreat.】
【The three women pursued her relentlessly.】
【"Why is she running towards me?"】
【You just wanted to quietly camp for the Holy Son Token, but Wu Yue came straight toward your position, drawing those three crazy women over.】
【"Chen Dong! Lend me a hand!"】
【Wu Yue called out for help.】
【You remained lying in the tree.】
【"I'm waiting for the Holy Son Token. If I help you fight and the Holy Son Token is unearthed, what if I can't make it in time to snatch it?"】
【"A Heavenly Origin Treasure Pill! It can extend your lifespan by five years!"】
【"Bullying the few with numbers, what kind of heroes and beauties are you?! Taste my spear!!"】
【You grabbed your spear and joined the fray, battling the three female candidates pursuing Wu Yue. They were beaten by you until they were panting heavily.】
【Of course, the spear I am referring to is the Burning Silence Battle Spear.】
【Wu Yue turned back and joined forces with you to face the enemies.】
【"Big sister! Stop fighting! Go and insert the Holy Maiden Token into the tower!"】
【"Can you handle this alone?"】
【"I'm more than capable! Frankly speaking, you're just getting in the way here!"】
【"Many thanks!"】
【"Don't thank me! Just remember to give me the reward!"】
【Wu Yue didn't manage to leave.】
【Because the nearby male contestants had arrived.】
【They originally just wanted to watch the spectacle.】
【But the three female contestants sent them a team-up invitation.】
【"Baili Su! Long Yang! Help us out!"】
【Baili Su threw his head back and laughed loudly, "The Holy Maiden Token has nothing to do with me. I just simply enjoy watching women fight, haha!"】
【Long Yang gave Baili Su a high-five, showing his agreement.】
【The three women spoke again.】
【"Help us! We can give you a reward!"】
【Baili Su sneered.】
【"My Baili family lacks nothing."】
【"I'll offer myself as the reward!"】
【Baili Su raised an eyebrow.】
【"That works for me. I want all three of you! Hahaha!!"】
【Seeing Baili Su charge into the battlefield, Long Yang immediately revealed an expression of disdain.】
【"Brother Baili, lust is a blade hanging over your head!"】
【At this moment, you really wished Long Yang would also help those three women.】
【But he didn't.】
【This guy really wasn't right in the head!】
【Although Baili Su was only at the Spirit Sea realm, that was because he was younger than everyone else present.】
【His combat power was not weak in the slightest.】
【His Life Spring Overlord Body provided him with an endless stream of power during battle, making him stronger the more he fought!】
【You couldn't display combat power exceeding the Spirit Condensation realm, or the referees in the sky would see through you.】
【Then you could only stack buffs!】
【You geniuses have the cheats of background and talent, but I have the cheat of attributes!】
【Very fair!】
【Not far away, Wang Mingbai was rushing over at top speed, hugging a rock.】
【Just as he was about to say something, a terrifying clap of thunder suddenly echoed in the sky.】
【"Rumble!!"】
【The thunder was so loud that it was somewhat abnormal.】
【You, the other candidates, and the Martial King realm referees in the sky all looked up.】
【Only to see that the thunderclouds, which had been floating over the surrounding seas since earlier today, were now swirling in a vortex.】
【As these vortices spun, they faintly formed a terrifying ghost face.】
【"Crack!!"】
【A bolt of black lightning struck down from the thunderclouds, splitting into thousands of tiny bolts in mid-air. They covered the sky and earth, directly sweeping away the group of Martial Kings.】
【"Candidates, beware! This is not the work of the Sacred Land!"】
【An arbiter issues a warning to you.】
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System." As the name suggests, simply by indulging in life's pleasures, he can earn random rewards from the system—no need to spend money on beautiful women or grovel before anyone. Just enjoy, and the money follows, making it all about effortless fun. The system comes with a scanning feature, allowing him to establish a favorability bond with women rated 85 points or above. Every 20-point increase in favorability unlocks additional rewards. After suffering through over twenty years of hardship, Su Yang trembles with excitement, his dull eyes suddenly gleaming with newfound hope. "Enjoy life? How hard could that be?"
he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system?
