"According to the map, Holy Soul Village should be this way, right? How come it looks like... I went the wrong way yet again? I spent a whole Gold Soul Coin on this map."

Wei Xi was furious. That crooked merchant had seen how young she was and taken her for a fool.

"Old Mo, I want some fish."

A faint ripple of space came from Mo Xuan, signaling that he understood.

I thought that merchant would be more than happy to contribute a little to Wei Xi's living expenses for the sake of his own safety.

"Immoral Navigation at your service. Continue straight for 800 meters."

Wei Xi looked at the little river in front of her, then at her navigation. Well, this was Douluo Continent, a fantasy world, so flying across made perfect sense.

She summoned the Water and Fire Dragon Wings and gave them a gentle flap, bringing her to the opposite bank.

"Xi! Over here!"

From a long way off, she saw a little blonde girl hopping around in a tree.

This was all reality now, so why did Lumine still love climbing trees and raiding birds' nests?

As soon as Wei Xi walked over, she saw two boys and four girls grilling food in the camp.

"Wow! You've already started eating without waiting for me."

Wei Xi hurried over at a trot, plopped down and shoved Wei Lin out of his seat, then grabbed a roast rabbit in each hand and started eating.

"Xi, can't you be a little more dignified? You're the first little beauty, at least. And that's my seat. You're turning the world upside down."

Wei Lin moved aside helplessly.

I'm clearly the original, so why does it feel like my clone is more popular than me? People really do let their values follow a pretty face.

"Fragrant, soft little cakes are the best. Old Wei, you should leave for now."

Lumine grabbed Wei Xi's little head and took a deep sniff.

A female Old Wei was such a rare treasure.

How could she describe the feeling? It was as if someone who had been your good bro all your life suddenly turned into a fragrant, soft little strawberry cake. And the key was, she was ridiculously pretty.

How could she not treasure that?

"Lingbao~"

"Brother, it's really not that I won't help you. I have to take care of my two sisters first, don't I?"

Ling would never admit that she also really wanted to "pet the cat." Looking at Little Xi'er's kittenlike expression, ah! This old man's maiden heart had been stirred!

"Sigh~"

Wei Lin's entire body turned black and white.

If Qingfeng hadn't still been willing to grill skewers for her brother, Lin probably would have shut himself off for quite a while.

But...

Wei Xi narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the last boy.

This must be the new alt.

Why did the original make him a boy? Wouldn't another little blueberry cake have been nice?

(Wei Lin: My harem is almost not mine anymore. If there were another one, I might as well just sleep on the street.)

"Xu Yunxiao Age: 6 Soul Power: 10 Martial Soul: Blue Silver Emperor / Praise of Life Soul Rings: None"

"Praise of Life?"

The corners of Wei Xi's mouth rose slightly. Everyone called her a demon pill and a fun-lover, but the original was no slouch either.

The Praise of Life Martial Soul took the form of a golden scepter, made from branches of the Ambrosial Arbor and the World Tree. It had only one function: to promote the positive evolution of Martial Souls.

Each person could receive three praises, while he could use it an unlimited number of times as long as he had enough Soul Power. Of course, as far as outsiders knew, it accumulated one use per month.

But... you bastard, you actually brought out the Ambrosial Arbor. Aren't you afraid the people you bless will grow leaves?

By then, that god in the wheelchair would have to turn a blind eye.

But...

"Speaking of which, why did you get a Blue Silver Emperor? Isn't that redundant? A certain little dancer spent her whole life proving that the Blue Silver Emperor was a Trash Martial Soul."

"You're not wrong to think that, but there's one thing you need to understand. How could Tianshu's Blue Silver Emperor possibly be the same as Douluo's?"

Wei Lin's expression grew increasingly perverted.

"Don't you think, if Little Scumbag saw an opponent with the same Blue Silver Emperor who was way more badass than him one day, what would he think?"

"Eww~ Brother, you're such a pervert. But I like it."

Wei Xi and Wei Lin exchanged a smile.

"Tsk, tsk, it really had to be those two. They're such fun-lovers. Luckily, our Yunxiao is much steadier."

Ling's expression turned a little strange, and she quietly leaned close to Lumine's ear.

"Sister Lumine, are you sure? When you get down to it, aren't they all Lin?"

Lumine's hand paused slightly as she ate her skewer. That... seemed to be true.

In the little camp, Wei Lin was bickering with Wei Xi, while Lumine took on the role of head chef.

Qingyu was busy eating.

Qingfeng and Ling were whispering to each other.

No one knew what Feng Yunxiao was thinking. Perhaps he was a little excited at the prospect of meeting this world's protagonist.

Early the next morning, the group set off once more in the direction of Nuoding City.

"Why?! We're out traveling, so why do I still have to do homework?!"

Qingyu wailed in the carriage. Everyone else was resting and enjoying the scenery, but she alone was still doing homework nonstop.

"You've got the nerve to complain! Your sister finished all her coursework three days ago. What about you? You haven't even finished half!"

"Big sister is a spiritual-type Soul Master with a good memory. I'm just a military general, I really can't get it into my head!"

More and more black lines appeared on Wei Lin's forehead. The older sister's grades were absurdly good, but the younger sister... it was hard to put into words!

"Stop complaining. I'm teaching you here, you think I'm not annoyed too? Look at the problem, look at it, or I'll whip you."

Qingyu, who had been a little dispirited, immediately perked up.

"There's something that goo... that bad? For the sake of my grades, brother, don't go easy on me. Whip me hard."

Wei Lin's face turned completely black. Everyone else in the carriage took out their phones and left this place of trouble together.

"Xu Qingyu! If I don't break your legs today, I'll write my fucking name backward!"

"Ah! Ah~"

Even from dozens of meters away, they could faintly hear the wails coming from afar, although there were always some strange sounds mixed in.

"Little Sister Qingfeng, has Qingyu always been like this?"

Qingfeng recalled the inhuman things her little sister had done, and her eyelids began twitching nonstop.

"I suddenly feel like my sister is so embarrassing. Can I return her?"

A little while later, in a residence in Nuoding City.

"Lin, where did you get this residence? We shouldn't have that many Gold Soul Coins."

Wei Lin nodded quite naturally.

"Of course we don't, but that doesn't mean other people don't."

Wei Xi tilted her head in puzzlement. Then she suddenly thought of something, and her eyes went wide.

"Lin! Did you touch my secret stash?! I was wondering why that crooked merchant's money still hadn't been delivered to me. So you intercepted it!"

"Little Xi'er, that's where you're wrong. What's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine. Besides, you're still young. You can't handle that much money. Your brother is different. I'm an adult, so I can handle it.

"Besides, would I take your money? I'm saving it for your dowry."

Wei Xi's face completely darkened.

"Fine, fine, fine. Wei Lin, that's enough! Give me back my money!"

When she could endure no longer, there was no need to endure.

"Wei! I'll fight you to the death!"

Wei Xi pounced like a hungry tiger devouring a lamb, going after Wei Lin with all she had.

"Ow! Are you a dog? How dare you bite me!"

"Give me back my secret stash!"

"I'll say it one last time! Get down!"

"No! Give it back!"

"Hey! With my temper, I've been too nice to you! Bite!"

"Ah! Pervert! You bit my butt! I-I-I'll fight you to the death!"

Everyone: "..."

"How about we leave first? Those two will probably keep biting each other for a while."

Silence was tonight's Cambridge.

Walking along the street.

Qingfeng and Qingyu browsed the street while glancing at Xu Yunxiao, who stood silently behind them.

"Sister, I keep feeling like this little brother is a bit hard to get along with."

Qingfeng nodded in agreement. When their brother had said he was taking them to Douluo Continent for a visit, they had been quite happy.

After all, studying fourteen hours a day in Tianshu was truly murder.

They also knew that the two of them had a lot of common knowledge to catch up on, but... keeping up that intensity all the time was genuinely tiring.

She remembered hearing that a senior named March had once said:

All study and no play makes clever March a dull girl.

Although she had never met this Senior March, someone who could say something like that had to be an exceptionally brilliant university professor.

But... no one had told me I'd have to look after a child!

Qingfeng's head hurt a little.

Yunxiao came across as a man of few words. He might not show a single expression all day.

"Sisters, I can hear you."

Qingfeng's little face reddened slightly. Ah, well... he had overheard her talking behind his back.

"Um... I didn't mean it like that."

"I understand. Big brother told me to follow you, so whatever you say goes."

After saying that, Yunxiao returned to his quiet, taciturn self.

"Um... would you like something to eat?"

Qingyu really couldn't think of how to handle their relationship. Eating something tasty should put him in a better mood, right...?

"Thank you, I'm not hungry at the moment."

Qingfeng and Qingyu's headaches grew worse.

"Sister, hurry up and think of something."

"Why don't you?"

"I don't have a brain."

Qingfeng: "..."

Well, look at that. You've admitted it yourself.

"Third Sister, Fourth Sister, you really don't have to keep watching me. Just browse however you like."

"No. Since brother entrusted you to us, we have to take good care of you."

"That's right, that's right. Besides, you even call me sister. If not for you, I'd probably still be the youngest."

Watching the two little ones trying so hard to assert their status as his older sisters, Yunxiao was almost holding his laughter in hard enough to suffer internal injuries.

Can't laugh. Keep it together. The persona is important, the persona is important.

"Sister? What's that place?"

"Where, where?"

Following the direction Qingyu pointed, they saw a small academy.

"That should be Nuoding Academy."

"Nuoding Academy? How does it compare to our academy?"

"Well... it's probably more backward."

Qingfeng could only guess. After all, they had never attended an academy on Douluo Continent.

But even if Douluo Continent was more backward, it probably... couldn't be that far behind... right?

"Sister, how about we go in and have a look? Didn't brother give us admission letters for Nuoding Academy? How about we go in and have some fun?"

"Do you want to go in and have fun, or do you want to go in and show off?"

Qingfeng knew her sister all too well. She had always been at the bottom of the class in Tianshu. Now that she had finally come to a backward place, how could she not show off?

"You don't pick up the good things, only the bad. Careful, or brother will break your legs again if he finds out."

"But I have you, don't I, sis? One reversal of time and I'll be back to normal."

Qingfeng didn't want to speak anymore. This was a classic case of remembering the food but forgetting the beating.

"Yunxiao, what do you think?"

Yunxiao gave it serious thought, and a trace of curiosity flashed in his eyes.

"Go to the academy? I'll listen to my sisters."
