Chapter 4: Always Even More Awesome Than Her
"These rosy lights, are they caused by Murong Wan?"
In the Heroes' Cemetery, Lu Xun also saw the seven-colored rosy lights in the sky.
This made him eagerly anticipate.
Murong Wan activated the Linglong Treasure Body; the system's rebate should be coming, right?
"Dad, Mom, just watch, I'm about to become awesome; in a month, I'll definitely get into Qingbei!"
Lu Xun said to his parents.
Qing refers to Qingxu Academy; Bei refers to Beidou University.
One focuses on immortal cultivation, the other on martial arts.
These are currently the two top cultivation academies in the country, the lifelong dream of countless students.
His parents passed away early, and Lu Xun has few memories of them.
He only remembers that one day his parents asked him which university he wanted to attend in the future, and Lu Xun said Qingbei.
At that time, his mother affectionately stroked his head and said, "My son Xun truly has promise."
From then on, Lu Xun resolved to get into Qingbei.
However, the older he got, the more Lu Xun realized that was impossible.
Until now, Lu Xun has seen hope.
That is also why Lu Xun came here.
He wants his parents' spirits in heaven to personally witness his transformation.
【Murong Wan successfully activated the Linglong Treasure Body; the host receives a tenfold rebate, obtaining the Chaos Divine Body.】
A voice from the system echoed in his mind.
The system's first rebate arrived, directly converting Murong Wan's Linglong Treasure Body into an even more powerful Chaos Divine Body!
"So hot..."
With the arrival of the Chaos Divine Body, Lu Xun's internal body underwent earth-shattering changes.
Inside him, it seemed as if it had turned into an expanse of chaos.
Then, as heaven and earth first opened, his meridians surged like a galaxy flowing backward, billions of cells exploding into nebulae of the primordial chaos.
One after another, universes leapt forth from the chaos.
Upon closer inspection, these were not universes but individual cells.
It seemed as if each cell within his body had become an independent universe.
"Holy shit, awesome!"
All these changes left Lu Xun dazzled and exhilarated, he kept shouting "666".
"Classmate, are you alright?"
"Don't disturb him; he comes here every year."
Two cemetery guards patrolled to this spot; seeing Lu Xun standing motionless, they did not disturb him and quietly left.
Just after they left, mist rose from Lu Xun's head, condensing into a pool of vapor.
Petals of chaotic blue lotus blossomed forth.
Above them, a great sun slowly rose.
This is the chaotic blue lotus ascending to greet the sun!
Another omen!
However, for some reason this omen was limited to Lu Xun's surroundings and did not cause much commotion.
More than an hour later,
Lu Xun opened his eyes.
At the moment he opened his eyes, his eyes seemed to contain a sky full of galaxies, endless universes.
The anomaly flashed and vanished.
Lu Xun still looked like an ordinary, handsome young man.
It seemed as if nothing had changed.
But in fact, Lu Xun's true change was nothing short of overturning heaven and earth.
"Why is there no omen?"
Lu Xun looked up at the sky, inevitably feeling doubtful.
Murong Wan's Linglong Treasure Body produced a city‑covering heavenly omen; his Chaos Divine Body is even stronger, so why is there no omen?
【The Chaos Divine Body is one of the top physiques of the heavens, capable of containing multiple powers and opening chaos meridians.】
【All things have a fixed number, but the host is the one who escapes; therefore, before the host becomes strong enough, the host is prohibited from cultivating on their own, otherwise producing omens would shake the starry skies and invite disaster.】
【The host's heavenly secrets have been automatically shielded.】
Lu Xun understood.
It turns out the system shielded the heavenly secrets; no wonder there is no heavenly omen.
But,
What the hell is this ban on self‑cultivation!
What good is this Chaos Divine Body to me then?
After thinking it over, Lu Xun felt this wasn't bad either.
Through the rebate system, everything is bound to Murong Wan.
Let her handle cultivation, which is incredibly arduous and super expensive.
Anyway, her cultivation will give me a tenfold rebate.
Being happy and relaxed, lying flat and getting stronger — why not?
"There's still a month left... Can Murong Wan open her meridians?"
Immediately, Lu Xun couldn't help but feel worried.
Only 31 days remain until the national exam.
To get into Qingbei, one must open three meridians before the college entrance exam; this is a hard requirement.
If one opens all meridians, regardless of other grades or current year, they can be directly admitted by Qingbei.
If one can open a meridian such as the Burning Heaven Martial Meridian or Ice Soul Spirit Meridian — a Heaven Earth Meridian — the admissions teachers of Qingbei will fight over you.
Although one focuses on immortals and the other on martial arts, both top schools are encroaching on each other's territories, making the annual college entrance exam competition for geniuses especially fierce.
"The Exquisite Treasure Body is so awesome, and the Murong family is wealthy and influential — with a month's time, there should be no problem."
After some thought, Lu Xun let go of his worry.
Worrying is pointless worry.
Since worrying is pointless, better not to worry.
Lu Xun took out his phone and saw that the internet was flooded with discussions about the heavenly phenomenon from a few hours ago.
The heavenly phenomenon was caused by Murong Wan, the top beauty of Rong Cheng; the news that the Murong family produced a peerless genius has spread.
"My goodness, heaven is too unfair — it opened a door for Murong Wan and even threw open the window."
"Not just the window — even the furniture and appliances are fully equipped."
"By the way, when the phenomenon just appeared, my Husky kowtowed three times to the sky and now insists on cultivating immortality — does this count as a work injury? Can I demand compensation from Murong Wan?"
"Who knows what happened to Murong Wan? Without saying she's almost 25 and still hasn't opened her meridians, how did she suddenly become a peerless genius?"
"If I could marry Murong Wan, I'd be willing to drive a luxury car, live in a mansion, and feast on lavish meals every day."
"Whoever has yellow piss, splash it to wake him up."
Across all social platforms and chat groups, Murong Wan's name flooded the screen.
Overnight, Murong Wan became the hottest person in the entire East.
No one knows, but in secret, an even more monstrous peerless genius has been born.
"That's fine too."
Lu Xun put away his phone.
"Dad, Mom, I'm leaving. After the big exam, I'll come back to see you."
After saying goodbye to his parents, Lu Xun turned and left.
"Wow, I heard that both the Pure Void Palace and Northern Dipper Hall have sent elders to vie for Murong Wan."
"Pure Void Palace and Northern Dipper Hall? They're top-tier forces that could rank among the top five worldwide!"
"Murong Wan is about to soar to great heights!"
Online news is always the most timely.
Lu Xun hadn't even left the Heroes' Memorial Garden when new news came out.
The Pure Void Palace and Northern Dipper Hall are the forces behind the Pure Void Academy and Beidou University; both are top-tier forces with official backing, teeming with strong individuals.
After the advent of the martial arts era, Eastern culture flourished fully, and people increasingly favored using classical names for schools and forces.
"Murong Wan is really awesome now."
Lu Xun thought of that peerless beauty who could topple nations, and couldn't help but smile faintly.
He naturally wouldn't be jealous of Murong Wan.
On the contrary, Lu Xun hopes Murong Wan becomes even more awesome.
Anyway, no matter how awesome Murong Wan gets, Lu Xun will always be more awesome than her.
