Zhang Chulan encountering Zhuge Qing of the Zhuge Clan and Lingyu Zhenren Zhang Lingyu of the Celestial Master’s Mansion in the first round, only to be brutally eliminated?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hey, no need to worry about it at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because someone will definitely pull shady strings behind the scenes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What, you say the Celestial Master’s Mansion is a righteous sect, and the Old Celestial Master is highly respected,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and would never allow such filthy maneuvers that tarnish the sect’s thousand-year reputation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what if the shadowy mastermind behind these shady operations is the Old Celestial Master himself?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this shadowy mastermind isn’t Zhang Jie—after all, with his connections in the Celestial Master’s Mansion,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he would never cause the sect’s disciples to disregard their thousand-year reputation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if Zhang Jie wanted to, with his methods, slipping in a small trick during the draw—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>sending Zhang Chulan into a weak group to dominate the matches—would be no problem at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the Celestial Master’s Mansion, in a trendy move, abandoned ancient manual drawing and used high-tech computers for electronic random grouping,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Jie would still find a way around it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the world Zhang Jie came from, the World of Devouring, though a hyper-martial, hyper-magical realm where the strong could seize stars and snatch moons as easily as breathing,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>was also an unmistakable near-future world, far surpassing the One-Person World in technological advancement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a programmer and engineer capable of writing artificial intelligence, hacking into a computer\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and rewriting a few lines of code was as easy as catching a turtle in a jar—effortless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in reality, Zhang Jie had no need to pull any tricks—the Old Celestial Master Zhang Zhiwei would handle all of it for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Old Celestial Master, Zhang Huaiyi (Zhang Chulan’s grandfather), and Elder Tian Jinzhong were all disciples of the previous Celestial Master, Zhang Jingqing,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and the three had grown up together as sworn brothers with deep bonds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Zhang Huaiyi became one of the Thirty-Six Thieves and was hunted down by immortals coveting the Qi-Ti Yuanliu,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>both the Old Celestial Master and Tian Jinzhong descended the mountain multiple times to search for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Tian’s limbs were crippled during one such descent by malicious individuals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only because those people feared the Old Celestial Master and worried that killing Tian Jinzhong would drive him mad\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>that he survived the Jia Shen Uprising—otherwise, Elder Tian might have died then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that Zhang Huaiyi is confirmed dead, this bond, extended by association,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>naturally transferred to his grandson, Zhang Chulan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the Old Celestial Master, bound by his status, could not directly protect Zhang Chulan, branded a thief,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>if Zhang Chulan became a disciple of the Celestial Master’s Mansion—or even its heir—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>that restriction would vanish on its own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, if even the Celestial Master’s heir could be coveted, then the Old Celestial Master had no right to remain Celestial Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To ensure his junior brother’s grandson became champion, the Old Celestial Master resorted to drugging his final disciple, Zhang Lingyu:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The drug he used was called “Jianjing San,” also known as “Immortal Pills.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a substance that blocked the flow of Qi in the body,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and the Old Celestial Master slipped it into Zhang Lingyu’s breakfast that day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The drug’s effect was subtle—no impact when Qi was not in use,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>but the moment the victim exerted full strength in battle, the drug would activate instantly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>causing total paralysis and Qi obstruction, reducing combat power to near zero.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This allowed Zhang Lingyu, whose raw strength surpassed Zhang Chulan’s, to be defeated by him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In short, this Luotian Da Jiao, though seemingly loud with drums, gongs, and firecrackers,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>crowded with throngs of people, was in truth held solely for Zhang Chulan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What is a protagonist’s prestige?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd was immense, but it was truly held for Zhang Chulan alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Jie’s promise to protect Zhang Chulan was merely going with the flow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, he had no interest in the Celestial Master’s throne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though uncertain whether the Celestial Master’s succession could restrain his current self, Zhang Jie had no habit of willingly stepping into a trap\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>even if the trap posed no threat whatsoever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Zhuge Liang was always cautious—what if, like Monkey King,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he playfully wore a flowered cap only to end up with a golden circlet tightening around his head? That would be disastrous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, trading an unnecessary Celestial Master throne for the Qi-Ti Yuanliu was an absolute windfall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Zhang Jie obtained the Qi-Ti Yuanliu, Zhang Chulan won the Luotian Da Jiao championship,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and the truth of the past was finally revealed—a true win-win, with bright futures for all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, since I can now write artificial intelligence, I’m essentially a programmer,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>so… will the programmer’s curse also strike me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Jie stroked his glossy, jet-black hair, suddenly feeling uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is well known that modern programmers have two ancestral figures: von Neumann and Turing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ancestor Turing possessed superhuman intellect, laying the foundation for computers\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and endowing them with a “soul” (computational theory and logic).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In 1936, Turing proposed the abstract mathematical model of the “Turing Machine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He proved that, given sufficient instructions (programs) and time,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>a machine could solve any computable problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This established a solid mathematical and logical foundation for modern computers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also proposed the famous “Turing Test,” pioneering the field of artificial intelligence\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>by questioning whether machines could think like humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the Second Global Conflict, he led the design of the “Colossus” computer\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>to crack Nazi Germany’s codes—an early practical application of electronic digital computing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without Ancestor Turing, we might still be debating whether machines could perform general computation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, while Turing’s intellect surpassed his era, so did his aesthetics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this doesn’t mean Ancestor Turing favored Walmart plastic bags\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>or armed helicopters or the dozens of genders that emerged in America afterward—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>those didn’t exist yet, so they couldn’t have influenced him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ancestor Turing was British, and shared the aesthetic tastes of British gentlemen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Britain was also known as “Gay-land”…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though such preferences were already widespread among British gentlemen at the time,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>in British society, they were still considered immoral, even criminal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In 1952, Turing was convicted by British courts for having a sexual relationship with an adult male\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(classified under British law then as “gross indecency”).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was given two choices: either go straight to prison,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>or accept probation on the condition of undergoing “chemical castration.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To continue his scientific research, Turing was forced to choose the latter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Jie felt Ancestor Turing was simply born in the wrong time—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>because Britain legalized homosexuality in England and Wales by 1967.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, many prominent public figures in Britain openly came out as gay,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>from pop stars like George Michael and Elton John.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, many prominent public figures in Little Britain came out as gay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such as George Michael and Elton John from the pop music scene.\u003C\u002Fp>",1169,"2026-06-20T14:22:37.780Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","e1ff3e08e95ae9bab8ecc69e31690ff11143839e18a88873172d418be0c4e774","simultaneously-transmigrated-my-cheat-skill-is-m-chapter-572","simultaneously-transmigrated-my-cheat-skill-is-m-chapter-570",601,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsimultaneously-transmigrated-my-cheat-skill-is-m-cover.jpg"]
