"Who… who are you?" Pi Dao stammered, pointing at the clone.
Chen Xiao smirked and replied, "He's my long-lost twin Pan Dao."
"Nonsense! You don't even share the same family name!"
"But we have the same face, don't we?" Chen countered.
"Like hell!! This is ridiculous!" Pi Dao shouted, but before he could say more, the clone Pan Xiao dashed forward, his glare sharp as a blade.
"Nonsense or not, I'm standing here. If you don't want me to shut your mouths for you, then scram."
His cold gaze swept over them like a storm. Pi Dao's group trembled, their bravado shattered, and they scattered in terror.
The crowd of villagers whispered in awe.
"Wow, the Xiao family actually has twins?"
"Chen's brother is really talented… he even frightened Pi Dao, and that guy's already in the late stage of Body Refining!"
Chen, however, could only sigh as he pointed at their ruined home. "So, clone… what do we do about the house?"
The clone ignored him, wiping sweat from his brow.
That night, Chen sat alone, staring at the glowing system window.

"Should I buy a sword? Or should I draw a trait?" Chen muttered, lost in dilemma.
The clone spoke up calmly. "I can win with a stick. But if we get a trait like Agile, it might surprise the judges."
Chen froze, staring at him. "Are you my clone or an angel?" Shaking his head, he snapped out of it and tapped on the Draw option.
A wheel appeared, spinning rapidly as both of them prayed for something good.
Swossh...spin… spin… spin…
~JACKPOT~
It stopped on a glowing purple icon.

"…Eh?" Chen and his clone stared blankly.
A brilliant light enveloped Pan Xiao, forcing Chen to shield his eyes. When the glow faded, Chen looked up only to recoil in disgust.
"What the ?! Why do you look like one of those perfect actors and models from my past life!?"
Pan Xiao's face was now flawlesss harp jawline, bright eyes, and an aura that made even the moon jealous.
Chen gritted his teeth in envy, but before he could rant, he noticed several village girls gawking at the clone, cheeks flushed, eyes sparkling with infatuation.
"System! Aren't we supposed to be clones? Shouldn't I be handsome too?!" Chen roared.
The system shook its head silently.
"…Traitor."
The crowd of girls swarmed the clone, pushing Chen aside like he was invisible.
"What's your name again?"
"Pan Xiao."
"Wow, what a lovely name! Do you have a girlfriend?"
"No."
"Can I be your girlfriend?"
"I'm sorry, no."
"Your house looks damaged… do you want to sleep at mine?"
The girls gasped at the bold one. Chen, hearing this, immediately jumped in.
"Yes! We're looking for a place. My younger brother will gladly accept sleeping… in front of your house."
The girls went wild, each insisting they could host him.
In the end, the richest girl won the competition and led them to her mansion. But when they arrived, only Pan Xiao was invited inside the grand halls, while Chen Xiao was escorted… to the stables.
Sitting on a pile of hay, Chen gripped his hoe and screamed at the heavens.
"System! I'm the one who hoes the field! I'm the one who earns the points! Why am I the one suffering here?!"
