In the Small Forest, dappled shadows from the trees fell across Lin Yuan.

He continued reading through the Diary Rules in his mind, and the curve of his mouth grew wider the more he read.

[Rule Three: A diary must be updated every day. The content is unrestricted and may include, but is not limited to, daily trivialities, plot complaints, cultivation insights, and so on. If the Host enters long-term secluded cultivation, the system may record their insights on their behalf.] [Rule Four: The higher the Diary Copy holder's "Trust Level" in the content written by the Host, the higher the critical reward rate the Host receives.] [Rule Five: Diary Copy holders cannot inflict any form of harm upon the Host, including but not limited to physical attacks, mental attacks, curses, poisoning, sending others to attack, and so on. Otherwise, the copy will be automatically reclaimed, and the Host has the right to retaliate against the holder.] [...] [All rights of interpretation belong to the Diary Fabrication System.]

When Lin Yuan saw Rule Five, he nearly burst out laughing.

He had originally worried that if he got too carried away with his writing and exposed Bibi Dong or Qian Renxue's Black History, a Titled Douluo might sneak into his bed in the middle of the night and slit his throat.

Now, it seemed the system was rather considerate.

Oh, no. This was just standard operating procedure for a Diary System.

"Unable to harm me? Does that mean that even if I pointed at Bibi Dong's nose and called her a Love Brain, she could only glare helplessly?"

"Wonderful!"

Just then, the system prompt sounded at the perfect moment:

[ Ding! Novice Guidance has ended. ]

[You have one Supreme Novice Gift Pack. Would you like to claim it?]

"Claim it! Hurry up!"

Lin Yuan did not hesitate in the slightest.

The next second, a warm current appeared out of nowhere and instantly enveloped his entire body.

[ Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have obtained One Thousand Gold Soul Coins. ]

[ Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have obtained the Passive Skill: Mastery of Physical Arts (Great Accomplishment Level). ]

[ Ding! Congratulations, Host. Your physical constitution has greatly improved. Your Meridians have been reconstructed. Your current physical limit: One Thousand Years! ]

[ Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have obtained a Spirit Exclusive Reward: Natal Soul Ring (God-Slaying Spear/Double Pupils). ]

[ Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have obtained the special skill: God-Tier Aura Concealment (freely adjust Soul Power fluctuations and Soul Ring Color). ]

Boom!

His body, which had been somewhat slender due to his young age, was now brimming with explosive power.

Every muscle and every bone crackled with delighted sounds.

There was none of that vulgar trope where Marrow Cleansing forced out Black Mud. Products made by the system were guaranteed to be top quality—it got straight to the point!

"So this is what it feels like to be filled with power?"

Lin Yuan clenched his fist, and faint explosions of air could actually be heard around it.

Immediately afterward, he sensed in the darkness that both of his Martial Souls had gained their first Soul Ring.

If this were not the wrong place, he would have wanted to release them and take a look.

[Natal Soul Rings are formed naturally by the Host's Martial Souls and do not require hunting Soul Beasts. The Soul Ring Age will automatically evolve as the Host's physical constitution improves.]

[Current age: One Thousand Years.]

Soon after, information regarding his first Soul Rings also flooded into his mind.

Double Pupils First Soul Skill: Void Stasis.

Effect: Forcefully imprison the space around the target. Targets no more than Level Ten above the user can be absolutely controlled for three seconds. For targets stronger than the user, the control duration decreases accordingly, with a minimum of one second.

Passive effect: After activating Double Pupils, the enemy's movements would slow tenfold in Lin Yuan's eyes, and he could directly see through weaknesses in the flow of their Soul Power.

God-Slaying Spear First Soul Skill: God-Slaying: Pierce

Effect: Ignore fifty percent of the target's defense. Wounds inflicted by the God-Slaying Spear carry Heavenly Dao Malevolent Qi. Unless treated by a Healing System Soul Master at the Titled Douluo level or through God-Tier Healing Ability, the wound can never heal and will continue bleeding.

"One is absolute crowd control, and the other is true damage plus Anti-Healing."

And he had an Eye Martial Soul and a Weapon Martial Soul. He could use both at the same time in battle, right?

Initiative Control first, then attack with the God-Slaying Spear. Invincible!

With a thought, Lin Yuan activated God-Tier Aura Concealment.

He disguised his two Soul Rings as Hundred-Year Yellow.

At this point in time, if his first Soul Ring was Thousand-year and he did not join some faction, it would probably bring him considerable trouble.

Even if he joined a faction, the trouble would not be small.

Rather than that, it would be better to be an ordinary, unremarkable genius.

It was only a pity that because his Soul Rings had condensed on their own, his Soul Power had not improved at all. He was still only Level Ten.

Then, with another thought from Lin Yuan, a Black Diary that only he could see appeared before his eyes.

Since he needed to write something before Diary Copies could be distributed, he might as well write a little.

"What should I write?"

"For the First Diary Entry, it has to be explosive enough. I need to make those women who receive the copies question their lives, while also making it easier for them to believe me."

Having thought that far, Lin Yuan no longer hesitated. Under the command of his mind, words began appearing in the diary:

[x year x month x day, sunny.]

[I never expected that I would transmigrate into the world of the novel Douluo Continent.]

[Although I was an orphan on Blue Star in my previous life, this life has started off fairly well. At least I do not have a drunken father like Tang San.]

[Today, when I awakened my Martial Soul, I nearly died laughing.]

[Transmigrators may come and go, but Su Yuntao remains eternal. That Blind Douluo truly lived up to his reputation!]

[I clearly awakened the Ancient First Killing Weapon, the God-Slaying Spear, as well as Ancient Double Pupils. They are unquestionably Twin God-Tier Spirits.]

[Yet he somehow failed to notice that there was something unusual about my eyes, and even believed my nonsense about my spear being called the "Soul Devouring Spear."]

[But this is good too. Keeping a low profile is The Right Way.]

[If that Crazy Woman Bibi Dong from Spirit Hall found out, who knew what trouble she might cause.]

At this point, Lin Yuan paused, a wicked smile curling across his lips.

Since he was going to play, he might as well play big!

He would name names directly!

[Speaking of which, Bibi Dong is also a "pitiful person," but that does not mean she is not terrifying.]

[She carries Rakshasa God's Inheritance!]

[Rakshasa God is a God who rules over evil and resentment.]

[The killing aura of my God-Slaying Spear is so heavy. What if it resonates with the Rakshasa God's lingering will inside her and makes that madwoman even crazier?]

[For the sake of my little life, I should stay far away from Spirit Hall.]

[That woman looks noble and aloof on the surface, but behind the scenes, who knows what the Rakshasa God's lingering will has tortured her into. Better not provoke bad luck.]

[I might as well keep a low profile and develop myself at Nuoding Academy first. While I am at it, I can see whether that "Rogue Rabbit" is really here.]

This move was called testing the waters. It was also called a dimensionality-reduction strike.

Bibi Dong inheriting the Rakshasa God's divine position was, at this point in time, an earth-shattering secret!

Other than Bibi Dong herself, perhaps only Qian Daoliu knew about it!

If Bibi Dong truly possessed a Diary Copy,

then when she saw these words, the shock and terror would definitely max out her Trust Level in an instant!

And according to Rule Four, the more she believed, the richer the rewards he would receive.

Even better, according to Rule Five, even if she was furious enough to explode, she would not be able to crawl through the Network Cable and kill him!

"Hehe, Bibi Dong, I hope you like this little greeting gift."

"Jie Jie Jie..."

Lin Yuan then put away the diary.

"The diary is finished. Next, it is time to see whether Nuoding Academy has the rabbit I am looking for."

He dusted himself off and headed toward the Seventh Dormitory with light steps.

What he did not know was that at the very instant he wrote the final stroke,

deep within the Papal Palace, tens of thousands of miles away, an incomparably terrifying Aura suddenly erupted!

The entire Papal Palace trembled beneath that pressure!
