Chapter 205: Ascending to the Legendary Realm

Wang Haoran was sitting on the sofa playing a game with Ning Xueluo.

Multitasking, he began conversing with the system.

“System, my luck points are at 4200, right?”

“Haha, I want to draw a hundred times!”

Drawing a hundred times would cost 3000 luck points, enough for Wang Haoran to ascend to the Legendary Realm.

[That’s correct, Host’s luck points are at 4200.]

[However, the system recommends a Super Ten-Draw!]

“…Super Ten-Draw?”

Looking at the lottery interface, Wang Haoran noticed that a new option, “Super Ten-Draw,” had suddenly appeared!

Moreover, the cost of this draw was ten times that of a regular ten-draw! 300 luck points per draw!

“System, did you introduce this new feature just because I have a lot of luck points?”

“Are you trying to trick me into spending, to reclaim my luck points?”

[…The system would never do that!]

“Hard to say! This lottery wheel looks just like those trashy pay-to-win browser games! Did you copy someone else’s idea?”

[…Host, please don’t speak nonsense! The system did not copy!]

“Look at you, getting all defensive! Feeling guilty, huh?”

[Ugh… really didn’t copy!]

[The system just… just has a slight design deficiency… that’s all…]

The system began to feel aggrieved.

Wang Haoran quickly comforted it.

“Alright, alright, I get it! I was wrong!”

“Something… so unique, it’s obvious you designed it yourself!”

“Okay, system, tell me, what’s so great about this Super Ten-Draw?”

Hearing Wang Haoran’s words, the system cheered up again.

[Host, the Super Ten-Draw is definitely worth the points! Just try it and see!]

“Alright, let’s give it a shot!”

[Good! Woosh—]

As the lottery spun, Wang Haoran listened curiously.

“System, why does the sound effect seem different?”

[…Is it?]

“Yes! Before, it was more like ‘swish—swish—’!”

[Uh… Super Ten-Draw has to be different from the regular ten-draw!]

The system was embarrassed to admit that it had been so long since the host had drawn that he had forgotten the original sound effects.

After the wheel stopped.

[Ding! Super Lottery successful! Congratulations to the host for receiving the following rewards: Ability Points +20; Ability Points +20; Skill—Protagonist Position Sensing; Skill—Super Ability Shielding; Ability Points +80; Item—Universal Upgrade Symbol ×5; Item—Universal Upgrade Symbol ×3; Ability Points +40; Ability Points +20; Patch Skill—Profile Reading.]

Spending 3000 luck points, Wang Haoran received 180 ability points and the following:

1. Universal Upgrade Symbol ×8 (can upgrade any skill by lv1)

2. Skill—Protagonist Position Sensing (after using the skill “Identify” to recognize a protagonist, you can sense their position regardless of distance)

3. Skill—Super Ability Shielding (an upgraded version of “Ability Shielding,” costing 100 luck points, can permanently shield a protagonist’s special ability)

4. Patch Skill—Profile Reading (an auxiliary skill to “Identify,” displaying the protagonist’s profile on their personal panel)

“Well… now I have a total of 210 ability points, and 8 Universal Upgrade Symbols…”

Thus, Wang Haoran decided to use the ability points mainly to enhance his combat strength, while the skills… he would upgrade “Impenetrable Fortress” for defense and “Shadow Step” for escaping.

Soon, Wang Haoran completed the upgrades.

[Ding! Host’s items used successfully!]

[Skill—Impenetrable Fortress lv4 upgraded to lv7!]

[Skill—Shadow Step lv5 upgraded to lv10! Congratulations to the host, this skill is now maxed out and has evolved into Skill—Teleportation (within a kilometer, instantly reach the location within sight).]

“System, this teleportation… is so low-grade? I have to see the spot to teleport?”

[Host, this is for your own good! To prevent you from teleporting into a wall!]

“…Alright!”

“Let’s check my personal panel!”

Looking at his panel, Wang Haoran pondered.

Everything seemed fine, but for the Legendary Realm, his physique was somewhat lacking.

However, this couldn’t be helped.

Others typically enhance their combat strength and physique simultaneously, but Wang Haoran relied on the system’s points, which were separate.

The quality of a martial artist’s true qi, their endurance, and recovery abilities were all related to their physique. Therefore, Wang Haoran decided to prioritize enhancing his physique next time.

***

After Wang Haoran ascended to the Legendary Realm.

Ning Xueluo, who was leaning in his arms, suddenly sensed something and looked up.

“What’s wrong?”

“Haoran, I just had a strange feeling…”

“Really?”

Wang Haoran smiled and patted her head.

The sudden breakthrough had caused a slight leakage of true qi, which Ning Xueluo had sensed.

True qi is a hallmark of the Legendary Realm. Having true qi means, in a sense, stepping beyond the human realm.

Feeling cozy, Wang Haoran had Ning Xueluo sit on his lap.

The couple continued to humor Fu Xue on the other end of the network.

Suddenly.

“Wang Haoran, you scoundrel!”

“…”

Wang Haoran stopped Ning Xueluo from getting angry and sent Fu Xue a private message.

“Why are you suddenly cursing?”

“What do you think? You’re always running off to flatter that Xu Ruochu! Have you thought about Ning sister’s feelings?”

Fu Xue was very angry. Even though she appreciated having more alone time with Ning sister when Wang Haoran was busy, she wanted to stand up for her.

However, to avoid upsetting Ning sister, she chose to curse in private messages.

Wang Haoran was curious, “Who told you this?”

“Of course, it’s Murong-gege! Don’t you dare deny it, he even took photos!”

“Tsk tsk, holding hands, wall-pinning, chin-lifting, just a kiss away! You scumbag!”

“…Really? Why did Murong Bufan suddenly tell you this?”

“Of course, because I asked him!”

Fu Xue was also a bit puzzled.

That Xu Ruochu was very pretty, but not as beautiful as Ning sister!

Why did Wang Haoran have to go to her? He was blind!

Thinking of this, Fu Xue couldn’t help but curse again.

“Wang Haoran, you scoundrel, are you going to Xu Ruochu again?”

“Hmph! I’ll definitely persuade Ning sister to leave you, you scumbag!”

“…”

Seeing Fu Xue reveal Murong Bufan’s movements in a few sentences, Wang Haoran couldn’t be bothered to chat further.

“Ah, yes, yes, take your time persuading her. But if Ning scolds you, don’t take it out on me!”

“I’m going to take a bath now, not chatting anymore!”

“…!”

Seeing Wang Haoran’s excuse, Fu Xue was so angry she wanted to smash her phone.

“…You! Bastard! Can’t you come up with a better excuse to deceive me?”

“Taking a bath in the morning! Do you think I’m a fool?”

However, in her anger, she also felt a sense of defiance—

Are the favored ones truly so fearless? Is he so sure Ning sister will scold me and not him?

“…”

“Ugh! It really might be true!”

Thinking of how Ning sister looked at Wang Haoran before, Fu Xue felt a pang of jealousy in her heart.
