Chapter 2: Besieged by Two Gods, First Simulation Ends
[You distribute the immortal herbs to Chen Xin, Gu Rong, and Ning Fengzhi.]
[Ning Fengzhi's martial soul evolves into the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.]
[Chen Xin and Gu Rong's strength also advances further.]
[You gain even greater importance within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. With Dugu Bo's addition, your status now ranks just below the four of them.]
[After absorbing the immortal herbs, your soul power reaches rank fifty. Your exact soul power level will only be known after absorbing a soul ring.]
[You and Chen Xin once again leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and head toward Shrek Academy.]
Without even looking at the rest of the simulation, Wang Li already knew what was going to happen next.
Deliver immortal herbs to Ning Rongrong—and, while at it, take her hunting for soul rings.
[You fail to find Ning Rongrong because Ning Rongrong is currently on her way to the Star Dou Great Forest.]
Wang Li: "..."
The process and the outcome were both correct.
Yet, somehow, something went wrong in between.
[You and Chen Xin do not linger long at Shrek Academy and instead head for the Star Dou Great Forest as well, preparing to obtain your fifth soul ring.]
[The Star Dou Great Forest is vast. Even if you enter through the same entrance, you may not necessarily encounter one another.]
[You and Chen Xin hunt and kill a twenty-thousand-year Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear, and you obtain its soul ring.]
[You obtain the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear's right arm bone.]
"???"
As expected of the so-called "soul bone bear," once it appears, it's guaranteed to drop a soul bone.
If not the left arm bone, then the right.
[You and Chen Xin leave the Star Dou Great Forest and return once more to Shrek Academy, where you meet Ning Rongrong.]
[Upon seeing you, a flash of surprise and evasiveness passes through Ning Rongrong's eyes, as though she is hiding some secret in her heart.]
[You pay it no mind, possessing absolute confidence in both your inner self and outward appearance. You gift the Beautiful Silk Tulip to Ning Rongrong.]
Absolute confidence, my ass!
Thinking about it carefully—at twelve years old, already past rank fifty, twin martial souls, and incredibly handsome—if he wasn't confident, that would be strange.
[Ning Rongrong absorbs the Beautiful Silk Tulip and successfully breaks through to rank thirty. You take Ning Rongrong to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for her soul ring.]
[Throughout the entire process, Chen Xin does not intervene, merely watching from the shadows.]
[After the hunt concludes, you invite Ning Rongrong to return to the sect, but Ning Rongrong refuses.]
[You do not think much of it, bid Ning Rongrong farewell, and return to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.]
[Time passes…]
[In the blink of an eye, you are fourteen, approaching fifteen, and your soul power level has reached rank sixty-four.]
[The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament has already concluded. You did not participate—first, because you had no interest in playing house, and second, as a form of self-protection.]
[A genius who has yet to grow is still just a genius.]
[Xiao Wu's identity is exposed, and she is taken away by Tang Hao. Ning Rongrong also returns to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect alongside Ning Fengzhi.]
[When you meet Ning Rongrong again, her gaze flickers as if she has finally mustered her courage, and she calls out to you: Brother Li.]
[You look at her in astonishment, utterly baffled.]
[After hesitating for a long while, Ning Rongrong finally speaks her true feelings.]
[She only regards you as an older brother and has no intention of becoming husband and wife.]
[You get drunk.]
Wang Li: "..."
What kind of bullshit plot is this?!
What exactly is so great about Oscar?
In the simulation, Wang Li hadn't even reached fifteen yet and had already reached rank sixty-four!
Such a monster accompanies Ning Rongrong, treats her well—and she ends up falling for a guy who sells sausages?!
[After learning of this, Ning Fengzhi and the other two lock Ning Rongrong up and offer you words of comfort.]
[You get drunk again.]
[After waking up, you leave the sect. Using the sect's intelligence network, you locate Oscar.]
[With a single swing of your sword, you kill Oscar!]
So decisive?
[You return to the sect. With Ning Fengzhi and the others as witnesses, you formally dissolve your engagement with Ning Rongrong and inform her of the decision.]
At least he still had some backbone—he didn't hang himself on a single tree.
Wait a second… Could Ning Rongrong's betrayal be because of the Lone Star of Calamity Fate Trait?
A Lone Star of Calamity—destined to be alone.
[Upon learning that you killed Oscar, Ning Rongrong falls into madness, wishing she could kill you herself.]
[Ning Fengzhi and the others can only sigh helplessly. Had they known things would turn out this way, they would never have allowed Ning Rongrong to leave the sect.]
[Your relationship with Ning Rongrong completely shatters. You leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and begin cultivating on your own.]
[Five years later, the Shrek Seven Monsters reunite. Ning Rongrong tells them that you killed Oscar, and Tang San believes that you deserve death.]
Wang Li didn't feel there was anything wrong with this so-called "deserving death."
Different stances—he killed Tang San's brother. It was only natural that Tang San would want him dead.
[Relying on your second martial soul, you reach the Titled Douluo realm at only twenty years of age and begin adding soul rings to your second martial soul.]
[You preemptively hunt the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python. Your soul power reaches rank ninety-five.]
[You hunt the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. Fully prepared, you obtain the Evil God Pearl. You then hunt a hundred-thousand-year Death Spider Emperor—you go completely godlike!]
[At twenty-four years old, having severed all emotions and attachments, relying on nothing but a sword and a jug of wine, you reach rank ninety-eight.]
[You travel to the Extreme North and attempt to persuade the Ice Empress and Snow Empress to join the God Creation Plan.]
[You unexpectedly encounter the Heavenly Dream Iceworm and reveal the entire God Creation Plan to it.]
[The Snow Empress and Ice Empress are persuaded. The Heavenly Dream Iceworm also joins the God Creation Plan.]
[You successfully break through to rank ninety-nine, and at this level, you advance an exceptionally long distance. You name this realm: Quasi-God.]
"Hiss—"
Wang Li sucked in a sharp breath. His simulated self was really something else!
Slaughtering two hundred-thousand-year "simp" soul beasts, killing the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and the Death Spider Emperor, and even launching the God Creation Plan ten thousand years ahead of schedule.
[You head to the ocean and find the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, inviting him to join the God Creation Plan.]
[The Deep Sea Demon Whale King scoffs at you. You kill the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.]
Wang Li: "..."
Too decisive—he really just attacked the moment words failed!
That was the Deep Sea Demon Whale King!
In the original story, if not for the Asura God's secret intervention, how could Tang San have possibly killed him?
[Just as you are about to absorb the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's soul ring, you are ambushed by his wife—the Demon Empress.]
[You believe that a family should be together, so you kill the Demon Empress as well.]
Wang Li was completely out of words.
[You absorb both soul rings. With the help of the Evil God Pearl, you successfully break through the hundred-level limit.]
[You… become a god!]
Good grief—he actually became a god just like that!
[You return to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and casually upgrade Ning Fengzhi's Eight Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.]
[You drink with Chen Xin and get drunk once more.]
[After bidding farewell to Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi, you no longer wish to deal with the trivial affairs of the Douluo Continent and ascend to the God Realm ahead of schedule.]
[Upon arriving in the God Realm, you are blocked by the Asura God and the Sea God. They accuse you of colluding with soul beasts and declare you unworthy of godhood. You are besieged by the Asura God and the Sea God.]
[You die!]
What the hell is this colluding with soul beasts, unworthy of godhood nonsense?!
If this counts as colluding with soul beasts, then shouldn't Tang San be cut into eight pieces?
His mother was a soul beast, his wife was a soul beast, even his daughter-in-law was a soul beast…
And this is what they call colluding with soul beasts?
[First simulation complete. Random reward is being drawn…]
