“Someone’s coming!”
Long Aoxue looked at An Yi.
It was a woman’s voice, and it sounded nice—gentle yet tinged with a hint of allure.
“What are you standing there for? Get into the storage space.” An Yi rolled his eyes at her.
“Why? Am I not fit to be seen?”
Long Aoxue was a bit puzzled, asking with some confusion.
“Well...”
An Yi was at a loss for words.
Under the alias An Xiang, he was now an academy instructor. If anyone found out a girl was hiding in his room, how would he ever manage to charm—cough—how would he maintain his dignified image as a mentor?
“Oh, why all the questions? Just get in!”
“No!”
“Get in! I’ll give you a level-four spirit core...”
“Two... two of them!”
Thud!
The door swung open. Zi Yun stared at An Yi and Long Aoxue tangled together, her stunning face flickering with surprise. Snapping out of it, she quickly said, “Sorry, I picked a bad time.”
“No, no, you’re not disturbing us. She’s... my sister.”
An Yi let go of Long Aoxue and said cheerfully.
This was a gentle, seductive beauty rated at a perfect nine—no way he was leaving a bad impression.
Sister...
Zi Yun’s mouth twitched slightly.
This guy was seriously weird!
Zi Yun gave Long Aoxue a faint smile, her pearly teeth parting: “Next up is the new students’ talent assessment. You need to supervise it.”
An Yi raised an eyebrow at this. “Such a hassle, huh?”
Zi Yun didn’t reply, her serene, warm smile hiding a silent curse.
This bastard—acting as the homeroom teacher, he hadn’t bothered to show up for the special enrollment class since the first day, when he’d just beaten the students up.
She was the one leading the class all on her own!!
“Alright, I’ll be there shortly.” An Yi said with a confident air.
“Everyone’s waiting for you. Don’t be late again.”
Zi Yun gave An Yi a gentle smile.
Watching Zi Yun’s tall, graceful figure disappear from sight, An Yi sighed.
Good thing he was 182 cm tall; otherwise, with this girl being 175 cm, he might not have been able to handle her.
“The scent on that woman is strange,”
Long Aoxue said, frowning slightly as she looked at Zi Yun.
An Yi shrugged helplessly. “It’s called perfume.”
“It just... feels weird,” Long Aoxue insisted.
To her, it didn’t seem like a human scent—more like a spirit beast!
...
Dongxuan Academy, Training Ground.
A massive cylindrical stone tablet stood tall in the center of the arena, its pitch-black surface exuding a dense aura of spiritual energy. Countless male students gazed at the monolith with reverence.
The girls blushed.
“This Spirit Tablet is no ordinary thing!”
Ye Tian stared at the tablet and spoke slowly.
The Dongxuan Academy branch housed a spirit vein, a key reason the academy was built here. Nourished by the spirit vein, the spiritual energy density across the campus was at least thirty percent higher than outside. This Spirit Tablet was a natural treasure.
“I didn’t expect the Dongxuan Academy’s branch to actually have something to test spirit veins!”
Yang Qi said, his arm in a sling, his cyan eyes narrowing as he looked at the tablet.
The blue-haired girl Qiansui spoke seriously, “Across the entire Dongling Empire, I doubt even the main campus has one.”
Xu Qianqian chewed on a piece of candy, her expression calm.
Having grown up in Qi City, she’d never seen the Dongxuan Academy as anything particularly impressive.
Liu Yu looked at the others, a strange smile flickering across his fair face: “I’m curious to see what kind of talent you so-called prodigies have.”
Yan Kui grunted, scorn in his voice, “Better than yours, for sure!”
The grade of a spirit vein basically determined one’s future potential.
Grades were divided into Lower, Medium, Upper, and Top in four levels.
On the continent, nearly eighty percent of people had Lower-grade spirit veins, while Medium-grade ones accounted for less than twenty percent.
Among these, Upper-grade spirit veins were rare at only one in a hundred, and Top-grade ones were rarer than one in a thousand.
The higher the spirit vein grade, the stronger the elemental affinity and the faster the cultivation speed.
This was especially evident before the Heavenly Dipper realm.
“Zhang Gousheng, Fire Element, Medium-grade Spirit Vein!”
“Liu Yuejing, Water Element, Medium-grade Spirit Vein!”
“Dai Lvmao, Wood Element, Upper-grade Spirit Vein!”
“...”
A long-bearded elder in a teacher’s robe announced each student’s spirit vein grade in a loud voice.
Most test results came back as Medium-grade Spirit Veins, with an occasional Upper-grade one popping up.
Students who got into Dongxuan Academy generally had talent above the average, mostly settling at the Medium level.
After Dai Lvmao was found to have an Upper-grade Spirit Vein, his previously timid demeanor turned cocky. He puffed out his chest, strutting like a proud rooster.
He knew that with an Upper-grade Spirit Vein, his future potential had already surpassed most ordinary people. He might even catch the eye of a mentor and become a close disciple.
This was no strange thing.
After all, students with high-grade spirit veins often had far greater potential than those with ordinary ones.
The mentor glanced at the list, a hint of pride swelling in him.
As Dongxuan Academy’s reputation grew, the quality of incoming students kept improving.
Upper-grade Spirit Veins actually now made up nearly ten percent—double the figure from two years ago!
“Next!”
The mentor stroked his beard, his gaze shifting to the back of the line, and then his expression changed slightly.
It was the special enrollment students!
Though it was still early in the term, these kids had already become a headache for countless mentors.
Arrogant, disrespectful, and utterly unruly.
On the very first day, a student had beaten the homeroom teacher into a bruised mess.
The academy head, Tao Ye, was even considering disbanding the class.
Students so unmanageable had lost their purpose as students, but each one here came with an intimidating background—either from big families or major sects, or with ties to the capital.
Word had it the principal’s own nephew was sent to deal with them, though no one knew how that had turned out.
“Heh, I’ll go first!”
Houzi grinned, showing a calm confidence.
In the special class, his strength at the early Spirit Gathering stage placed him in the middle. But remember—this was the special class!
He placed his hand on the tablet, channeling his spirit vein.
A flush of crimson light flickered across the tablet, blazing bright red.
“Hou Fang, Fire Element, Upper-grade Spirit Vein!”
The mentor’s eyes lit up as he announced.
Houzi smirked, shrugging. “Just as I expected—no surprises at all.”
“Next!”
The mentor rolled his eyes at the guy and continued.
No denying it—this kid had every reason to be proud.
An Upper-grade Spirit Vein, one in a hundred—that already placed him among the ranks of geniuses.
The mentor’s gaze shifted further down the line, curiosity stirring.
He was more eager to see what grade those few troublemakers would get.
Those kids definitely weren’t ordinary.
s + Rent Collection Wealth】 At the start, he inherited a rundown house in the urban village from his grandfather. The house had no tenants, but the moment he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, a self-proclaimed empress from the Tianxuan Continent arrived as his first tenant. Ye Chuan soon discovered that with every new tenant moving in, not only did he receive massive daily payments, but he also obtained unique items related to their backgrounds. 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Tiger Strength Pill—dramatically enhances physical power!】 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Deer Blood Pill—significantly boosts vitality!】 …… From that day on, all sorts of bizarre tenants began appearing in the house: the empress from Tianxuan Continent, an apocalyptic sorceress from the Magic Realm, a mysterious scientific girl who fell through a spacetime rift… Every single day, he received strange, powerful items and endless money. Then one day, he suddenly realized—he had become invincible. Enough, enough! Stop giving me more!
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
