In the shadowy backstreets of Spirit Hall's grand city, a thin and battered boy lay on the ground.
A tall youth was mercilessly stomping on him, each blow filled with cruel delight.
Just as his consciousness began to fade, a cold, mechanical voice echoed inside his mind:
[Warning: Host is on the verge of death. God-Level Cheat Device detected. Loading in progress—3…2…1… Success.]
[Activating survival protocol. Healing injuries. Initiating random spatial transfer.]
The next instant, the boy's broken body vanished from under the bully's boot, leaving only confusion in the alley.
When awareness returned, Yuan Longxuan slowly opened his eyes.
His vision cleared to reveal a forest of blue-gold plants, their glowing vines swaying gently in the wind.
"This place… I've transmigrated again?"
His mind was dazed, yet the truth unfolded clearly.
Yuan Longxuan, once an ordinary youth from Blue Star, had crossed over more than ten years ago into this strange and dangerous world...the Douluo Continent.
Not only that, but he had arrived during an era far earlier than the story he remembered, the age when Bibi Dong still walked among mortals.
Back then, his innate spirit power was not low....rank six....and his martial spirit was a strange sword bamboo.
He was modest, humble, and knew how to navigate human relationships. Because of this, he blended well into Spirit Hall.
Elders and officials often invited him to drink tea, chat, or even stroll with birds in the courtyard. Life was calm and fulfilling.
But everything shattered the day Yu Xiaogang, the so-called prodigy of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, appeared.
At first, Yu Xiaogang frequently submitted theories and reports.
When they bore no fruit, he secretly stole knowledge Yuan Longxuan had brought from Blue Star...basic scientific principles and ideas.
Then he turned around and accused Yuan Longxuan of plagiarism, slandering him as a fraud who had stolen his "research."
Although Yuan Longxuan was furious, he endured.
After all, those ideas were nothing more than the most superficial scraps from Blue Star. The real wisdom, he had never shared.
Spirit Hall's higher-ups were not fools; they saw through Yu Xiaogang's character. Rewards and recognition continued to favor Yuan Longxuan.
Yet envy corrodes reason.
Yu Xiaogang, jealous of Yuan Longxuan's strength, intellect, and growing reputation, turned to underhanded means.
Using his clan's influence, he bribed and coerced Spirit Hall's lower officials. Eventually, they locked Yuan Longxuan in a pitch-black underground chamber
There, Yu Xiaogang threatened him, forcing him to write down every fragment of knowledge he possessed.
For half a year, Yuan Longxuan endured imprisonment.
At the end of it, when Yu Xiaogang judged him worthless, he cruelly severed his tendons, abolished his cultivation, and even cut out his tongue....discarding him in a desolate alley like trash.
Every day, Yu Xiaogang would return, not to kill him, but to mock him, to trample him, to ensure his humiliation.
Yuan Longxuan knew why...because Yu Xiaogang was terrified. Terrified that a commoner like him had already surpassed a "noble" young master.
Terrified that his brilliance in both strength and knowledge made Yu Xiaogang look like a joke.
So Yuan Longxuan had only given him half-truths. Useless theories. Flawed foundations. .
A distorted path. He would never willingly hand over the true essence of Blue Star's wisdom.
And now…
Inside his body, power surged once again. Yuan Longxuan could feel the tide of spirit energy flowing. ..
He was alive. Strong. His cultivation had returned to the peak of a forty-seventh rank Spirit Ancestor.
He was seventeen years old. Once, the elders had said: If nothing goes wrong, this boy will surely reach Spirit Douluo in the future. He had believed them.
Now, he clenched his fists. The future would be different.
Before he could ponder further, a translucent light screen appeared before his eyes....an electronic panel glowing with strange symbols.

Yuan Longxuan's jaw dropped. "Wait… I can upgrade myself with a click? Everything in the store is free?"
His hands trembled. After a long pause, he cautiously tapped on the rank indicator.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host has advanced to rank 48.]
A surge of strength burst within him. His spirit power rose instantly, vibrant and vast. Tears stung his eyes.
"Three minutes of fate can flip the heavens. Yu Xiaogang… you tormented me, destroyed me, and thought I'd die like a dog in the gutter.
If I don't make you live a fate worse than death, I'll abandon the name Yuan Longxuan!"
Rage boiled within him. His finger flew across the screen, tapping again and again.

[Ding! Rank 98.]
[Ding! Rank 99.]
A final warning appeared:
[Host has reached the limit. At level 100, you will transcend the mortal realm and ascend forcibly to the God Realm. Continue?]
Yuan Longxuan frowned. "Force me to ascend? Not yet. I'll stay here first. Can you set me as the strongest beneath the gods?"
[Confirmed. Host adjusted to Rank 99....Quasi-God Stage.]
The aura around him transformed. With a single breath, he felt he could shift mountains, split rivers, and tear open the heavens.
But raw power wasn't everything. He still lacked proper spirit rings.
His gaze shifted toward the interface for spirit rings. He smiled.
[All spirit rings upgraded to 100,000 years.]

Yuan Longxuan chuckled. "This system is surprisingly considerate. I like it."
Curious, he opened the System Store. Shelves upon shelves of treasures dazzled his eyes.
