Aiming for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!

"Thank everyone for their kindness on my behalf! I have the Inversion Pen, I have soul tools, and I have the ability to grow stronger by taking a beating, so I don't need any special help for the time being."

He stared intently at Lin Xiaoyu, his voice carrying clearly through the livestream to the ears of every viewer.

He leaned forward, his gaze so sharp it felt as if it could pierce through the screen.

"If you must know what I need—

"I need you to keep watching me.

"Watch me cover every inch of the Douluo Continent with soul tools.

"Watch me overturn those nobles who rely on bloodlines and talent to throw their weight around.

"Watch how I subvert this world of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak, and send it rolling into the trash heap of history!"

He stood up, every word ringing with conviction.

"Yesterday I was a petty kidnapper; tomorrow, I ask you all to address me as Your Majesty!

"After all, I am a man livestreaming from another world!

"And here, this is my home turf!"

The moment his voice fell, every livestreaming platform across the globe stuttered in unison for three seconds!

When they returned to normal, the gifts in the chat room took off instantly!

Flowers, hearts, and rockets completely blanketed the screen, drowning out even the scrolling comments!

It was a carnival in the livestream, a spectacle in the media world, a grand occasion worthy of being a milestone!

Even Lin Xiaoyu subconsciously tapped the screen, sending the most extravagant string of rockets in her streaming career.

Watching the ambitious, high-spirited youth on the screen, her heart hammered uncontrollably.

It took a long while before the comments broke through the blockade of gifts and surged forth!

[Emperor Chu Men!] x9999

[Chu Men: I swear this oath in the name of the First Emperor!]

[A real man should be just like this!]

[So cool! This is what a transmigrator should look like!]

[Emperors take turns! That old man Xue Ye probably doesn't even know there's a rebel hiding right under his nose, hahahaha!]

Lin Xiaoyu knew she would likely never forget this night for the rest of her life.

She forcibly suppressed her excitement, her voice trembling slightly.

"My questions are finished. Mr. Chu Men... is there anything you would like to say to me... and the audience?"

"Hmm... how about 'I look forward to everyone's continued support'? Haha! With this camera running 24 hours a day, I don't really need to say anything; I just need to do it, don't I?"

Chu Men laughed freely, causing Xiao Wu, who was off to the side fiddling with the glider again, to look back repeatedly.

"Mr. Chu Men, can we connect again tomorrow night?" Lin Xiaoyu asked expectantly.

"Of course, chatting with you is a pleasure," Chu Men smiled. "If I have time tomorrow, how about I take you all on a tour of the Heaven Dou City night market to taste some of the local delicacies of the Douluo Continent?"

"We can't actually eat them, boo-hoo-hoo~"

"Who knows? Maybe tomorrow's gift list will include some Douluo Continent delicacies?"

Chu Men raised an eyebrow. "It's not like those are contraband items that would cause major disruptions to the real world."

[Soul beast meat? I'd really love to try that!]

[Holy crap, I just realized it too! Soul beast meat is great for strengthening muscles and bones and improving one's physique!]

[New Oriental, here's a new challenge! Who would have thought the culinary world would see a new trend like this!]

"Then everyone and I will look forward to tomorrow's night market!"

The livestream finally reached its conclusion.

"I didn't expect everyone to be so enthusiastic tonight. Since you've tipped so much, I can't be stingy."

Chu Men looked at the rising points on his livestream panel and said with a smile, "I'll draw another 20 lucky viewers. Let's go with 10 Inversion Pen soul tool pendants and 10 miniature Clear Sky Hammer models!"

Chu Men left one final piece of advice: "After you receive the livestream gifts, just enjoy them for what they are.

"Although the real world doesn't have anything like the 'International Statute of Secrecy,' don't use them to disrupt social order."

"Alright, that's it for today's stream."

Chu Men stretched, picked up Xiao Wu—who was on the verge of dismantling the glider—and placed her on his shoulder.

"I'll study some high-level soul tools over the next two days. I might have to make a trip to the Crown Prince's Mansion to meet this 'peerless' Crown Prince."

Xiao Wu sat on his shoulder, swinging her little feet, and retorted:

"How can a Crown Prince be 'peerless'? It's obvious the weird uncle failed his literature classes!"

Chu Men chuckled, unable to resist patting her bottom. "How many days have you even been in school? You dare say your uncle is uncultured? You little girl, you don't know your own limits!"

Chu Men winked at the camera. "See you all tomorrow—no, wait, I'll see you all again tomorrow. Haha!"

[His Highness the Crown Prince? Xue Qinghe, Qian Renxue!]

[My wife is finally going to make an appearance!]

[Pah, what do you mean 'your wife'? She's clearly my wife!]

[That's a concubine of Emperor Chu Men, you lot—what are you thinking?]

[Ah! Chu Men! I could replace him!]

The night passed without incident.

The viewers who kept their eyes glued to Chu Men's livestream didn't find anything particularly exciting to watch.

Even scenes like bathing or sleeping were blurred out by the system in a very considerate manner, which led to quite a few complaints and regrets from many female viewers.

The next day.

The lack of entertainment in his life made Chu Men's biological clock exceptionally precise.

He headed out early in the morning, following his routine to the Blue Tyrant Academy to find Liu Erlong for his daily special training.

Getting a good beating in the morning kept him energized for the entire day.

This annoying Inversion Pen was something Liu Erlong loved and hated, and sometimes, Chu Men felt much the same way.

"You're as punctual as ever."

Liu Erlong nodded with satisfaction, then asked with a puzzled look, "Why didn't that girl Xiao Wu come with you?"

"Huh?"

Chu Men paused, only then remembering he had someone else at home.

"Cough, cough. The kid likes to sleep in, so I didn't wake her. I left some food for her."

Thinking that there was still half a box of snacks left, Chu Men secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Good, good, she won't go hungry.

Liu Erlong didn't dwell on it, launching an unexpected punch his way.

Chu Men had been prepared; ever since he advanced to the Soul Ancestor rank, Liu Erlong's requirements had become increasingly strict, and her blows had grown heavier each time...

A cup of tea later.

Chu Men groaned as he slumped into a lounge chair, panting heavily while complaining, "You know, if I get beaten up before every class and don't recover in time, it'll look terrible if the students see me with bruises all over my face!"

Liu Erlong handed Chu Men a bowl of herbal tea mixed with honey, then sat down beside him with her own bowl of brown sugar ginger tea.

Chu Men took a sip and continued, "About what I mentioned last time—setting up a laboratory for soul tools at the academy—how is that coming along?"

Liu Erlong nodded. "What you said makes sense. Our Blue Tyrant Academy is mostly made up of civilian soul masters, and most of them have limited talent. Learning a trade to fall back on is a good thing."

She didn't expect these students to be able to manufacture soul tools, but being able to maintain and repair them would already be quite an achievement.

Besides, becoming familiar with the flow of soul power within soul tools could greatly improve a soul master's understanding and control of their own power!

"Exactly, exactly!" Chu Men nodded repeatedly. "Soul tools aren't something you can master through theory and meditation alone; you have to practice with your own hands! So..."

Liu Erlong understood instantly. "The academy's budget is limited. Tell me, what good thing have you cooked up this time?"

"I'm doing this for the sake of our academy's future!" Chu Men set the tone before slowly unfolding his plan. "How is your relationship with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

Liu Erlong's expression turned slightly solemn. "I know them, but we aren't close. However, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is indeed wealthy. Have you had another breakthrough with your soul battle armor?"

Chu Men chuckled. "Something like that. I'll finish the custom Fire Dragon Battle Armor for you in the next two days; you'll know once you try it on."

"Aren't you connected to the Crown Prince's Mansion? Is there any need to seek out the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?" Liu Erlong reminded him. "Ning Fengzhi is not a simple man!"

Chu Men replied, "Soul tools, especially combat-oriented ones, might not be a necessity for the Crown Prince's Mansion, but the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect certainly won't refuse them!"

After saying this, he took a sip of the secret herbal tea, letting the bitter taste ferment on the tip of his tongue.

The first time Chu Men drank it, he had nearly vomited.

Later, he had a flash of inspiration and used the Inversion Pen to invert the taste, but the medicinal effects were inverted as well.

It left Chu Men vomiting and suffering from diarrhea, in a truly pathetic state.

Even after he became able to precisely control the inverted entries, Chu Men never tried that again. It served as a constant lesson to himself—

The Inversion Pen might be powerful, but that only placed higher demands on the user!

It was a test for himself!

"Add more honey next time!"

"Once you're done drinking, get lost and go to class! The students have been waiting for you for days!"

Liu Erlong took the empty tea bowl from Chu Men's hands and urged him on with a huff.
