"Holy shit!"
The tremendous wind kept Jie Jian from even opening his mouth. He wanted to curse, but he could not even get the words out.
Holy shit, why is the ground getting closer and closer?!
Damn system, where the hell did you send me?!
Is this really the Culling Game?!
As Jie Jian plummeted at terrifying speed, his adrenaline surged wildly. He had never felt the world so clearly.
The buildings below grew larger and larger in Jie Jian's eyes. He desperately tried to steady himself, hoping to bring himself to a stop.
However, all his efforts were in vain.
All Jie Jian could do in midair was scream as he watched the concrete ground draw closer and closer. There was nothing else he could do.
" splat!"
With a tremendous crash, Jie Jian slammed his head into the concrete ground and lost his life on the spot, bringing his sinful existence to an end.
Inside the System Space, Jie Jian suddenly sprang up from the floor.
"Is my head still there?!"
He gasped for breath, his face covered in cold sweat. He looked like the old thief Sima as he hurriedly checked his head.
The sensation of smashing his body into concrete was far too intense. Jie Jian could not forget it anytime soon.
Just as he was examining his body, a translucent screen unfolded in front of him. At the same time, the system's mechanical voice rang out.
Failure count: 1 Cause of death: The host attempted to challenge a concrete floor with his head. Evaluation: The worst of the worst. You died before even officially participating in the Culling Game. Reward: A small amount of Cursed Energy; a slight increase in impact resistance.
The system's voice pulled Jie Jian out of his panic over dying from the fall. He pointed furiously at the screen and cursed.
"Damn system, how dare you say that? Where the hell did you send me?! Is this even the Culling Game?!"
The system's voice remained as merciless as ever as it clearly explained to Jie Jian:
"The place the host went to was indeed the Culling Game. The host was randomly teleported into the air by the Culling Game's Barrier."
The system's reminder suddenly made Jie Jian recall the rules for participating in the Culling Game.
The players who participated in the Culling Game were called Players. When Players entered the Culling Game's Barrier, the Barrier would randomly teleport them to one of nine locations within it.
Some of those teleportation points were downright hellish. One of them was in midair!
If a Player was unlucky, they would get to experience being a human missile for free. If they could not land safely, they would fall to their deaths. Quite a few people had died this way during the Culling Game.
Clearly, Jie Jian was one unlucky bastard.
After figuring out what had happened, Jie Jian took a deep breath.
At that moment, he had a very serious question he wanted to confirm.
"Um... System, you were able to send me from another world into Jujutsu Kaisen. Couldn't you at least choose a safe landing point for me?"
"I'm sorry, host, but I can't do that."
The system's merciless voice rang out.
"The Culling Game is a special Barrier. I have no authority to modify its rules. The host's landing point can only be random each time he enters the Barrier."
Jie Jian gritted his teeth in pain, then finally let out a helpless sigh.
Whatever. If I can't choose, then I can't choose.
It's not like I'll really die anyway. I'll just treat it as experiencing bungee jumping without a rope.
Besides, it was not as if there was no good news at all. Jie Jian asked the system:
"System, am I randomly teleported every time I enter the Culling Game Barrier?"

"Yes, it's random every time."
The system's voice finally allowed Jie Jian to breathe a sigh of relief.
Although the original work had not explained it in detail, Jie Jian remembered that some of the Players participating in the Culling Game were relatively weak.
Judging by their abilities, those people could not possibly have survived being dropped from the sky.
Therefore, some of the Barrier's teleportation points had to be safe!
As long as each entry was random, Jie Jian had a chance of being randomly sent to a safe teleportation point the next time he entered the Barrier.
After resolving that issue, Jie Jian turned his gaze toward the screen that had just finished calculating his results.
Looking at the words "the worst of the worst" in the evaluation, Jie Jian gave an awkward smile.
"Sorry. I'm really sorry for being such trash."
There was nothing he could do about dying on impact. He was just an ordinary person right now. If he was sent straight into the sky, how could he possibly survive?
Even if you sent Big Lao over, he would still crash!
After complaining helplessly, Jie Jian looked at the rewards on the screen with some anticipation.
"A small amount of Cursed Energy and a slight increase in impact resistance?"
As for the Cursed Energy, to be honest, Jie Jian could not feel it at all!
He summoned his system panel. The Cursed Energy column still showed a monkey, without the slightest change.
Jie Jian clenched his fist and punched himself in the chest. Perhaps it was just his imagination, but he felt that his body really was a little sturdier!
Suddenly, an idea entered Jie Jian's mind.
"Hey, System! Dying once increased my constitution. If I keep dying, can I raise my body to Yuji Itadori's level?"
"I'm sorry, host, but I can't determine that. The reward from each calculation is related to the host's performance. You will have to explore it yourself."
"Fine, whatever."
Jie Jian curled his lips. The system was too useless. It knew nothing. What trash!
He moved his body around, but his face soon became hesitant again.
It was not for any other reason. He was wondering whether he should enter the Culling Game again.
Although he would not really die, the sensation of dying from the fall had been frighteningly real!
Whenever Jie Jian thought of the moment his head struck the ground, he still felt a little afraid.
Just as Jie Jian was torn with indecision, the system's voice rang out.
"Is the host ready to challenge the Culling Game again?"
The system's voice made Jie Jian's heart tremble.
He took a deep breath.
"Forget it. If I'm going to die, then I'm going to die! No gambler loses every day, and no child cries every day! I refuse to believe my luck can be this bad every time!"
He would have to enter sooner or later. Staying in the System Space forever was not an option.
"System, send me to the Culling Game!"
"Understood."
As the system's voice faded, Jie Jian once again disappeared from the System Space.
After a flash of white light, his vision returned.
Looking at the familiar scenery before him and the concrete ground rapidly growing larger below, Jie Jian shouted the first—and last—line of this challenge:
"Damn it! You said it was random! Why am I here again?!"
As the familiar sound of a "splat" rang out once again, Jie Jian returned to the System Space yet again.
