The subtle change was instantly noticed.

First Elder Lin Tao, who had been in the middle of "killing himself," stopped what he was doing.

He looked at Lin You with a trace of astonishment and suspicion.

If he had not seen wrong—

This kid had gone from an ordinary mortal with no standing to a Body Tempering Realm cultivator in a single instant.

Breaking through was not terrifying.

But that speed of breakthrough was simply beyond belief!

The normal process should have been to find a place for secluded cultivation, then have an elder stand guard over him.

Only then could he break through.

Lin Tao sized Lin You up suspiciously.

"You... just broke through?"

Lin You nodded like a pecking chick.

"I did."

"Fuck!"

One "fuck" followed another.

The elders all turned, their gazes landing on Lin You.

He had really broken through? What kind of joke was this?!

When one scheme failed, another arose.

Lin You scratched his head and said mysteriously, "Actually..."

"I've been hiding a secret from all of you."

The Great Ones all asked, "What secret?"

Lin You spread his hands.

"Actually, I'm a genius."

"A real genius—the kind who can cultivate for one day and match what others achieve in a hundred."

"I never lost my cultivation."

"I did it on purpose!"

As soon as the words fell, the room became silent to the extreme. Even heavy breathing could be heard.

Second Elder Lin Tianshui frowned, as though something had occurred to him.

Uncertainly, he asked, "You mean you chose to rebuild your Dao foundation?"

At those words, Lin You nodded wildly!

He had been worrying about how to get himself out of this.

Rebuilding one's Dao foundation meant dispersing all one's cultivation and starting over.

This method would make breakthroughs more difficult, but it would also make one stronger in battle at the same realm!

"Good lad!"

"I knew I hadn't misjudged you! How could the Lin Family's only heir be some useless waste!"

Lin Tianshui planted his hands on his hips and laughed heartily.

The expressions of the other elders eased considerably as well.

"That's good, that's good. This old man was scared to death."

"Ah... looks like my Heat Powder has nowhere to be used. I was even planning to have this kid sire a few more brats."

"I just contacted the Zhao Family's young lady from the Seventh-grade Star Domain. She agreed to marry into the family—what do we do...?"

"Do? Do my ass! Tell her to get lost! How can the Lin Family's only heir marry into another household!"

Lin Tao slowly lowered the hand he had been using to kill himself.

The wrinkles on his face smoothed out. With a flash, he appeared before Lin You.

He warmly gripped his shoulders.

"Good lad!"

"I knew from the time you were little that you had it in you!"

"You can do what ordinary people cannot!"

Lin You: ...

No, bro?

Did I agree to you arranging the rest of my life for me?!

Is the Zhao Family Girl pretty or not...

Who was it that called me trash just now?

Every last one of you wants to treat me like a breeding stallion!

That face-changing speed is fucking insane!

No wonder they say old hands of the world are different—their skin is thick enough!

Lin You rubbed his nose. "You... really know how to bend and stretch."

Lin Tao burst out laughing.

[ Ding! ]

[ Regained the Lin Family's support. Mission complete! ]

[ Reward: Crit Roulette x1 ]

The system notification sounded.

A Colored Roulette, visible only to Lin You, appeared before his eyes.

The roulette had six slots.

x2, x5, x10, x20, x50, x100.

If he drew x2, then one day of Lin You's cultivation would be equivalent to two hundred days of cultivation.

If he drew x100...

Fuck me, I love my sister-in-law!

Before Lin You could spin the roulette, the elders' joy from moments ago was immediately doused.

As though he had just remembered something, Lin Tao suddenly said, "Although Lin You choosing to rebuild his Dao foundation is a good thing."

"But... there are only three days left, after all."

"Even if he cultivated day and night without rest, he could probably only reach the Origin Opening Realm."

"That brat from the Ye Family is already about to break through to the Five Qi Towards Origin Realm."

"We... should prepare ourselves to lose our status as a Sixth-grade Family..."

Lin Tao's words were like a heavy hammer crashing down onto their hearts.

Everyone fell silent.

This Heavenly Pride Competition in the Mo Yun Star Domain had been organized by the Six Great Families of the star domain under orders from a higher star domain.

Not only would it gather the many heavenly prides of this star domain, but also ferocious tigers who had fought their way out of the lower Third-grade Star Domains.

As one of the Six Great Families, the Lin Family naturally had to participate in the Heavenly Pride Competition.

Lin You had been too young before, and the Lin Family had no other direct descendants of his generation.

So for all these years, they had remained in a state of giving up on results.

This time, if the Lin Family still failed to win the championship, they would be demoted and stripped of their status as a Sixth-grade Family!

"Isn't it just the Five Qi Towards Origin Realm?"

"I'll handle him, won't I?"

"What's the big deal?"

Lin You was brimming with spirit. Now that he had two Crit Roulettes in hand, his guaranteed minimum was a four-hundredfold cultivation speed.

What the hell was there to fear?

After saying that, Lin You headed straight for the cultivation chamber, leaving behind only one sentence.

"Brother Tao, pile on the cultivation resources."

"I want them all!"

Lin Tao gave a helpless grunt of acknowledgment, then immediately came to his senses.

"Hm?"

"Who's Brother Tao?"

Watching Lin You's departing back, he waved over a Shadow Guard.

"Give the Young Master whatever resources he needs these next few days."

"At any cost!"

The Shadow Guard acknowledged and departed.

Afterward, only the elders remained in the main hall.

Lin Tao stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fixed on the vault of the heavens.

His tone was somewhat heavy.

"If we lose our status as a Sixth-grade Family, we must not act on impulse."

"You'er is still growing. What we need to do is conserve our strength and bide our time, waiting for the day he leads the Lin Family back to the sixth grade."

"Besides, the rumors about that genius in the Mo Yun Star Domain are true!"

Lin Tianshui was greatly startled and hurried over to Lin Tao.

"Big Brother..."

"You're joking, right?"

"Could the combination of a Supreme Bone and Twin Pupils really appear in a Sixth-grade Star Domain?"

Lin Tao shook his head.

"When have I ever joked?"

"This time..."

"That Prodigy will be participating as well."

"In just three days, do you think You'er can defeat that Prodigy?"

As his words fell—

A deathly stillness permeated the main hall.

The elders could not help but sigh upon hearing this. In their hearts, they had already prepared themselves to leave.

More than a dozen towering figures turned their heads in unison.

Their gazes fell upon the figure seated cross-legged in meditation within the secret chamber...

Inside the secret chamber.

Lin You could not wait to open the roulette.

"Start, start!"

After spinning wildly several times, the white needle began to slow, passing over the x2, x5, and x10 slots.

Lin You could not help clenching his fists.

"Slower..."

"Slow down some more!"

Only the 20, 50, and 100 multipliers remained.

No matter which one it landed on, it would be fine!!

Anything but the Great Earth Sliding Step!

As though it had sensed Lin You's plea, the needle slowly came to rest on the x20 slot.

It stopped almost against the edge of x50.

"Fuck!"

"What a shame it wasn't fifty times."

[ Ding! ] [ Obtained 2000x cultivation speed! ]

Lin You took a deep breath.

"It's fine."

"I still have one Crit Roulette!"

"Keep going!"

The second time.

Lin You's luck exploded.

The needle stopped on x100!

Holy shit!

This was about to send him soaring into the heavens!!!

[ Ding! ] [Obtained 200,000x Cultivation Speed!]

Hearing the system prompt, Lin You couldn't help breaking into Gangnam Style inside the secret chamber.

Humming a little Michael Jackson tune under his breath.

"Justin Bieber, Bieber!"

"Bieber~ Bieber~~~"

One hand glided through a silky moonwalk.

Absolutely spectacular!

With this cultivation speed, even if they brought in a pig, it could stand tall against those heavenly geniuses!

Although the two critical-hit durations didn't overlap.

The 200,000x boost only lasted one day; the following two days would be 2,000x.

But damn it, this was 200,000x!

Just go for it, brothers!

Once his crazed dance came to an end.

Lin You immediately threw himself into cultivation.

Outside the secret chamber...

Those towering figures couldn't stop their faces from twitching.

"...You'er, what was he just... doing?"

"This is bad—he still went into cultivation deviation. I misjudged him!"

"There seems to be something wrong with the boy's mind. I'll contact the Zhao Family Girl right away; there's still time!"

"Bring me my Heat Powder! Send it along with him when the wedding takes place!"
