Shrek's Grand Gesture

[The tied tenth-ranked Dragon Emperor Douluo, Long Xiaoyao, has concluded his monologue!]

[Opportunity Reward granted: Dream Ferry for the Fated]

[Opportunity Description: This dream is no dream, but a real world. Those who enter it will be like reincarnated souls, experiencing another lifetime anew to resolve their regrets and complete their lives. Upon awakening, the dreamer will awaken in the state they had attained within the dream.]

That indifferent voice rang out once more. Then, a Spiritual Light shot explosively from the Heavenly Curtain toward Long Xiaoyao.

"Isn't this Heavenly Curtain being far too unfair? Mu En received a heaven-defying opportunity like the Hundred Year Longevity Gu, but Elder Long gets nothing more than a dream experience. What use is that?"

Some people simply could not understand why the Heavenly Curtain had bestowed such an opportunity.

What use was dreaming?

Hadn't people already had countless dreams throughout their lives?

Why did they need to specifically have another dream? Wouldn't that be a waste of the Opportunity Reward granted by the Heavenly Curtain?

Some even began indignantly taking Long Xiaoyao's side, believing that the Heavenly Curtain was playing favorites and being terribly unfair.

All that could be said was that these people were too narrow-minded. They were still fixated on superficial temptations such as improving their strength and extending their lifespans.

Was the Dream Ferry for the Fated really meant to be judged that way?

Some senior old-timers, however, saw the true value of this opportunity and could not help envying Long Xiaoyao.

"How is this a wasted opportunity? It is clearly an immense blessing! In some sense, it is even more precious than Mu En's so-called Hundred Year Longevity Gu!!"

After understanding the Dream Ferry for the Fated's true purpose, an elderly Super Douluo on the verge of death had eyes so red they were nearly unrecognizable.

This dream was no dream, but a real world.

That alone proved it was no ordinary dream. It was more like truly returning to the past.

In a sense, it was equivalent to gaining an extra second life. That alone made it comparable to the Hundred Year Longevity Gu.

Not to mention that the opportunity description said that, after the dreamer made up for life's regrets and attained a complete state of mind, they could awaken in the state they had achieved in the dream and return to the real world.

Combined, those two effects made this far more than an ordinary dream experience. It was truly living out another lifetime, becoming more complete and stronger!

Its usefulness utterly eclipsed the Hundred Year Longevity Gu.

Just imagine it: after the dream, not only would all past regrets be mended and one's state of mind become more complete, but one's peak condition in the dream would also be carried over into reality.

As long as one performed well in the dream, one could maximize the benefits of this opportunity.

Whoosh!

The Spiritual Light flew out. With the earlier incident as a warning, no one dared try to snatch the opportunity anymore.

In the end, the Dream Ferry for the Fated smoothly arrived before Long Xiaoyao.

Without waiting for Long Xiaoyao to react, the Spiritual Light flew directly into his mind.

So that's how it is. At the same time, understanding flashed through Long Xiaoyao's heart.

This Dream Ferry for the Fated offered one chance and one chance only, and whether to activate it depended entirely on a single thought from him.

Thus, Long Xiaoyao did not activate the Dream Ferry for the Fated for the time being.

He planned to wait until he learned the so-called truth and personally questioned Ye Xishui before activating it.

Besides, he had only this one incomparably precious chance.

Therefore, there could be no mistakes, not even the slightest one, lest he waste this opportunity for nothing.

After all, this was equivalent to returning to the past with all his memories and living his life over again.

More than two hundred years had passed. Long Xiaoyao had grown old, and he had forgotten some matters he had never cared much about.

So he intended to remember every one of those things before making sufficient preparations.

Perhaps then he could not only resolve the regrets of that year and make his state of mind more complete, but also advance another step in strength.

As long as one was a Limit Douluo, one would surely wish to keep striving forward and attempt to touch the so-called Divine Realm.

Long Xiaoyao naturally had such thoughts as well, but his life was filled with too many regrets, forcing him to abandon those thoughts he should not have entertained.

Perhaps he could try without worry in the dream.

Mu En, it seems I'll have to let you down again. Long Xiaoyao seemed to think of something and could not help smiling.

He intended to seize the Dragon Core opportunity in the dream.

After all, it was only a dream and would not affect the true real world.

Thus, Long Xiaoyao naturally had no misgivings.

Perhaps after refining the Dragon Core in the dream, he could touch that legendary Divine Realm.

Yet before he could remain happy for long, Long Xiaoyao's mood darkened again, returning to what it had been before.

It turned out he had once more recalled the truth mentioned by the Heavenly Curtain.

Xi Shui, what truth are you still hiding from me? After all these years, can you really still not feel my heart?

At that moment, Long Xiaoyao was both excited and uneasy, filled with worry.

The real show is finally about to begin, but I still need to whet their appetites a little longer.

After the Opportunity Reward related to Long Xiaoyao had been distributed, Shao Zhuang stopped the Heavenly Curtain's broadcast.

The reason was simple. According to his perception, the monologues of Mu En and Long Xiaoyao were enough for now.

Giving everyone some time to process things would make the eventual revelation of the true truth all the more shocking.

That was what Shao Zhuang wanted to see!

As for whether the Heavenly Curtain suddenly stopping without any notice might be inappropriate.

Sorry, but in the eyes of all living beings, his Heavenly Curtain was currently the representative of the World Will.

Did the World Will need to remind the creatures of this world every single time?

Wouldn't that be far too undignified?

After two consecutive monologues and the granting of two heaven-defying Opportunity Rewards, even those who had refused to believe should have believed by now.

Even if they still did not believe it now, it would only be a matter of time.

Therefore, the Heavenly Curtain, which symbolized the world, could proceed however it wished. It had nothing to do with these creatures.

For all living beings of the Douluo Plane, all they needed to do was honestly watch the changes of the Heavenly Curtain and strive to view its rankings the moment they appeared.

Those ranked on the list had one additional task: waiting for their opportunities to be granted.

Beyond that, there was nothing else for them to do.

"Boss, the bill."

After finishing dinner, the disguised Shao Zhuang paid and left the stall.

Just as he was heading back, planning to visit the so-called roommates in his dormitory, a figure suddenly appeared and blocked his way.

"Junior Disciple Brother, you really made your senior brother search hard for you." Yan Shaozhe looked at the disguised youth before him and had nearly worried himself to death.
