"Chi Qingshui: You bad boy, don’t be so impulsive next time, or I’ll make you pay for my little table!"
"..."
"Maomao: Yu, thank you and Ying'er for being willing to help me. Tomorrow, I’ll write down as much detail as possible about what Aunt Ruxue might say."
"..."
"Aunt Qimeng: Xiao Yu, no need to bring lunch tomorrow. I’ll take Rongrong to try some street food nearby, and I’ll let her leave work a bit early."
"..."
After replying to all the messages and chatting with a few of them for a while,
before he knew it, it was already 11 p.m.
Time for the wonderful daily ritual—dreaming.
Things he couldn’t try in reality,
in dreams, he could recklessly experiment to his heart’s content!
As for the first candidate tonight,
Lin Yu already had his answer.
[Ding!]
[Dreamwalk Technique (Dual Version) activated!]
[Host will appear in the dream of &%¥#@! (Xia Xiashan) tonight. Based on the current state, please select an appropriate dream type!]
Last night’s successful dream invasion of the "King of Dirty Jokes"
proved that the same approach would work on the dojo master.
When he met her younger sister, Xia Yiwei, today, she showed no reaction whatsoever.
Just goes to show
how strong this woman’s mental fortitude is!
However,
after today’s interaction with Xia Xiashan, Lin Yu was absolutely certain she had already developed fear toward him.
If he played his cards right in the dream,
that fear would undoubtedly take even deeper root!
Lin Yu quickly skimmed through the dream options tailored for the dojo master:
[1. Diligent Training: Hone your martial skills through rigorous mountain practice!]
[2. United Front: Multiple dojo masters join forces against an otherworldly demon!]
[3. Midnight Snack: A heart-to-heart chat between sisters and ZerO!]
[4. Private Duel: Another brutal beatdown at the dojo in the dead of night!]
[5. None of the above—random dream!]
Such wholesome dream options.
It almost felt unnatural to Lin Yu.
Option two didn’t look bad either.
Being labeled an "otherworldly demon" at least guaranteed his combat prowess wouldn’t be nerfed in the dream.
But a crowded scene wasn’t ideal for deepening a single person’s emotions.
Who knows—
it might even give the dojo master an excuse to rationalize her fear:
"See? None of you could beat him either, so it’s totally normal that I lost!"
After finally finding someone who feared him,
he couldn’t allow even the slightest chance for her to climb out of that mindset!
So,
Lin Yu decisively chose option four!
Let the beatdown commence—more violently than ever!
Next,
it was time to decide on the second candidate…
[Ding!]
[Dreamwalk failed—invalid target selection!]
[Please reselect!]
Lin Yu: "..."
Teacher Tang Yimian’s "Energy-Draining Technique" was truly monstrous!
It could even nullify the Dreamwalk Technique?
In terms of intimacy,
after two tutoring sessions, their relationship had already warmed up rapidly.
A little push in the dream would’ve made things progress even smoother.
Never in his wildest dreams did he expect
that his techniques could be countered to this extent!
Well then,
he’d just have to pick another target—someone delicate and vulnerable!
[Ding!]
[Host will appear in the dream of Joyous Sect’s Bell Envoy (Chi Qingchi) tonight. Based on the current state, please select an appropriate dream type!]
[1. Comic Appreciation: A wondrous journey through another world!]
[2. Cosplay Convention: The dazzling new star on stage!]
[3. Three Things Only: Eat, eat, and eat some more!]
[4. Group Project: A romantic scene during meteor season!]
[5. None of the above—random dream!]
Lin Yu: "..."
Aside from the second option, which seemed somewhat normal,
the others were downright bizarre!
The "comic" in option one couldn’t possibly be wholesome, right?
And what’s this about another world? Role-playing as comic characters?
Eat, eat, eat!
Three full meals in a dream?
Did she starve herself all day or something?
And the fourth one—
what the heck is "meteor season"?
Are meteors literally raining from the sky?
This couldn’t be some niche anime reference he didn’t know, could it?
He’d never heard of any trending term like that!
So… it’s literally about falling meteors, right?
After mentally venting his confusion,
Lin Yu still opted for the relatively "normal" choice—
Option one!
Even if he ended up as a goblin, he’d definitely be the handsomest, most muscular one!
How else could he conquer a saintess?
With both candidates decided,
Lin Yu settled comfortably into bed, gradually drifting into blissful slumber…
He didn’t know how long he slept,
but the scenery around him shifted.
Now,
Lin Yu found himself standing outside Master Xia’s dojo, its signboard glaringly bright under the night sky.
Even in the darkness, the dojo’s location was unmistakable.
Lin Yu couldn’t help but marvel.
What a perfectly deserted midnight scene!
Not a soul in the dojo—hell, not even a living creature on the streets.
Silent as a deafened ear on a plane, not a single sound to be heard!
Lin Yu paid it no mind.
Tonight’s focus had nothing to do with the setting.
There was only one theme: Beatdown!
Pushing open the dojo’s door,
Lin Yu deftly navigated past the front hall, arriving at the training arena where they’d last fought.
"Click!"
"Click! Click!"
"..."
Just as Lin Yu wondered why the lights were off inside,
with each step he took, the lights flickered on one by one.
Gotta admit—
it had the dramatic flair of a martial arts movie showdown!
At least the dojo master had some taste.
She’d definitely seen a film or two.
"Master Lin, you’ve finally arrived."
Lin Yu: "..."
He definitely heard that right.
Xia Xiashan just called him "Master Lin"!
Wing Chun, Lin Yu?
If they were gonna fight, why bother with all this theatrical nonsense?
Lin Yu shook his head helplessly, took a deep breath,
and responded in a low voice:
"Master Xia, long time no see."
His immersion was impressively quick!
Xia Xiashan seemed thoroughly pleased with this opening.
She wore the same outfit as the day Lin Yu stormed the dojo,
except now, there was an added… aura of momentum!
"Thud!"
Xia Xiashan took a single step forward,
and the entire arena trembled with a heavy, resonant boom.
Lin Yu: "???"
What the hell was that sound?
A female titan? A legendary fighter?
Was this really supposed to be him beating up the dojo master?
Or did they accidentally swap the hero and villain scripts?
...

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!

u serious?" Chen Feng watched helplessly as his painstakingly trained disciple, fresh off a championship victory, publicly abandoned him. "You had your chance, but you didn’t appreciate it. Now, face the consequences of your choice!" Chen Feng possessed the "Master System," a treasure trove of supreme martial arts techniques, capable of molding ordinary individuals into peerless prodigies. "Legs like yours? A shame not to train in the Crippling Kick." "Ever heard of a palm strike that descends from the heavens?" "Auntie! I see extraordinary bone structure in you—a martial arts prodigy, one in ten thousand." The once-defiant senior disciple, now watching her juniors rise to fame one after another, dominating the internet, was consumed by endless regret.

The human world is a nice place, but I won't come back in my next life. A kind young man, who wanted to just get by singing, but through repeated deceits and betrayals, has gone down an irredeemable path.
