Simulation After a Year

"Now that Zi Yan has finished her seclusion, you're going out again, aren't you?"

Su Qian looked at Xiao Ming, who showed surprise upon hearing this, and smiled slightly, "What, are you curious about how I knew?"

"You're never one to stay put. Ever since you broke through to the Dou Wang, you've been running around outside every day. Even when you come back to the academy, you don't stay for long. You've been at the academy for a year now, haven't you?" Su Qian chuckled.

"Hehe, the Great Elder's observation skills are indeed sharp. That's right. I will return to the Xiao Family again in two days to handle some matters. After that, I should travel across the continent."

"As you know, once you reach the Dou Zong realm, advancing even one level often requires years or even decades of arduous cultivation. Traveling across the continent might just lead you to many fortuitous encounters," Xiao Ming said.

To be honest, Xiao Ming didn't have any grand ambitions in life; he just wanted to stand at a high point and see more of the scenery.

And when enjoying the scenery, it's best to have close friends or family by your side.

Of course, he doesn't like having any idiots bothering him when he's enjoying the scenery.

Force is the most direct way to achieve these goals, and it is also the only truth in the fantasy world.

Therefore, in order to reach a higher level and to improve one's strength as quickly as possible, going out to seek opportunities is the most effective approach.

Huh? You mean slowly simulating growth using the resources you draw?

This is one approach, but Xiao Ming has a bit of an adventurous spirit. There are indeed people who stay in one area, in their comfort zone, but Xiao Ming isn't that kind of person. →

There will always be people in the world who are better than you. Are you going to stay home because of that?

With his Dou Zong strength and the status of Seven-Rank Alchemist, he was already well-positioned to make a name for himself in the Dou Qi Continent.

"Of course I know that. I'm not saying this to stop you; after all, youth is meant to be adventurous. I just hope that you can take Zi Yan to the Central Continent someday. Central Continent is vast and diverse, home to all kinds of races. There, you might find out about Zi Yan's past."

"I will." Xiao Ming nodded in agreement. Even without the Great Elder's instructions, she would take Zi Yan to the Central Continent.

After exchanging a few more words, Zi Yan came out.

Seeing that Zi Yan still had the figure of a child after her breakthrough, Su Qian smiled knowing that Zi Yan always wanted to grow up, and left without saying anything more.

After Su Qian left, Xiao Ming also shared his plans, and it was said that Xiao Ming was leaving again.

Xiao Yi Xian and the others naturally had no objections, but Qing Lin was a little reluctant because Xiao Ming didn't plan to take her along this time.

Xiao Ming had no choice. Given Qing Lin's strength, it was best for her to stay in the academy. Here, "strength" doesn't refer to combat power; in terms of combat power, Qing Lin, Fifth Tier Magical Beast, wasn't actually weak. Xiao Ming was referring to her cultivation level.

Although Qing Lin's cultivation level has improved very quickly, he is only at the Dou Ling now. It is best for Kingly Way to focus on cultivation in the Inner Academy.

The best time to take her out for training will be when she reaches the level of Dou Wang and is no longer suitable for Secluded Cultivation.

Once Qing Lin reaches the Dou Wang realm, she will be able to enslave higher-level Magical Beast. At that time, Xiao Ming will take her to find some Dou Zong- level Magical Beast for her to enslave.

Such a Qing Lin could be considered a great help to Xiao Ming.

In the courtyard, Xiao Ming lay on a chair, basking in the sun contentedly.

Today, Xiao Yi Xian, Qing Lin, and Zi Yan went shopping. Xiao Ming didn't know what they were buying, and he didn't dare to ask, for fear that if he did, the three of them would drag him along to buy things.

Xiao Ming didn't wear the ring that symbolized the Venerable Tian Huo; instead, he left it in his room.

There was no need for that; Xiao Ming had always done it this way, and Yao Tian Huo understood.

Staring at the sun, Xiao Ming squinted, thinking to himself, "Since no one's around, I should start the simulation now. There have been people around me these past few days, making it difficult to Simulator. If I don't start now, the opportunity will be gone."

Without hesitation, Xiao Ming mentally called out, "Is the Simulator here?"

As Xiao Ming called out softly, a highly mechanical voice suddenly rang out.

[Ding, host has been detected to have one opportunity for Life Simulation. Begin simulation?]

"That sound is truly delightful," Xiao Ming remarked, then said, "Let's begin the simulation."

[Ding, the current simulation count is one.]
