Summoning a Title Douluo, Dongfang Yuechu

Thud thud—

"Eh, why is no one here?"

"Didn't Teacher come back? Why isn't she here?"

Jiang Chen pushed open the door and entered the hall. "Teacher, this student has come to ask for guidance..."

Jiang Chen was not worried that Bibi Dong would blame him, because his bargain-bin teacher had said that if there was anything he did not understand, he could come to her chambers and ask her.

Besides, what bad intentions could a pure and innocent six-year-old child possibly have?

Jiang Chen searched the hall for quite a while, but still did not see his bargain-bin teacher.

"What do you need from me?"

A pleasant, noble female voice came from behind Jiang Chen.

Without even thinking, Jiang Chen knew it was his bargain-bin teacher.

"Teacher, your disciple has finished reading all those books, but... there are some parts I do not understand."

"Oh? Go on. It's rare to see you so eager to learn..."

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have triggered a choice:

Choice One: Boldly ask about the relationship between postpartum care for sows and Soul Master training, and have Bibi Dong explain it to you. Reward: one chance per week to summon a Title Douluo.

Choice Two: Reveal the truth and have Bibi Dong severely reprimand Hu Liena. Reward: one million-year soul bone."

So it was Hu Liena's doing. No wonder—how could his teacher, Bibi Dong, have given him a book like this?

But a million-year soul bone? System, how could you even offer that as a reward?

If it wasn't a ten-million-year soul bone, he would not even give it a glance!

"System, I choose option one."

"Congratulations, Host, for making your choice. Reward: one weekly chance to summon a Title Douluo."

"Uh... Teacher, may I ask what direct relationship postpartum care for sows has with Soul Master training?"

"Please enlighten me, Teacher!"

Jiang Chen said this somewhat embarrassedly.

Bibi Dong's expression stiffened when she heard that. Was there something wrong with her disciple's brain?

What did postpartum care for sows have to do with Soul Master training? Wasn't this simply sick?

Jiang Chen directly pulled out a five-centimeter-thick copy of the "Soul Master Training Codex." "Teacher, please watch the VCR!"

Although Bibi Dong did not understand what that meant, she still accepted the book and opened to the first page. Like Jiang Chen, the more she read, the more absurd it seemed.

She had read this book before, but... why was it different from how she remembered it?

Jiang Chen continued, "Teacher, there is a line of small print in the lower-left corner at the end of page 340. You might want to take a look..."

Following Jiang Chen's instructions, Bibi Dong turned to page 340. In the lower-left corner was a clearly written line of small print: Postpartum care for sows...

Bibi Dong had personally found these books for Jiang Chen, but... this one seemed to have been given by her eldest disciple, Hu Liena?

Bibi Dong revealed a bewildered smile and said gently, "Even I do not know about this. I'll tell you once I figure it out... Oh, right. In two days, I'll take you to the Star Dou Great Forest to obtain a soul ring. You may leave for now."

"Yes, Teacher."

Watching Jiang Chen's departing figure, Bibi Dong then looked at the "Soul Master Training Codex" in her hand. "Looks like I need to ask my precious disciple about this."

"Teacher, why have you come?"

Hu Liena looked at Bibi Dong before her, her eyes full of surprise. Her teacher rarely visited where she lived. Could it be that she had something important to discuss today?

However, when she saw the book in her teacher's hand, she immediately had a bad feeling.

"Liena, you were the one who found this book for Jiang Chen, weren't you?"

"Today, he asked me what relationship postpartum care for sows had with Soul Master training. I am ashamed to say that I do not understand the reason behind it, but you found this book, so you should know, right? Why don't you explain it to your junior brother?"

"I... Teacher, I may have taken the wrong book."

Like a withered flower, Hu Liena spoke weakly.

"Liena, you and Jiang Chen are both my disciples. You should help each other."

Hu Liena lowered her head. "It won't happen again, Teacher."

Jiang Chen sat on his bed, preparing to use his chance to summon a Title Douluo. He felt that the system had scammed him. It only said he had a chance to summon one; it never said he would definitely succeed.

The summoning probability was only fifty percent.

System, you bastard, you scammed me!

Wasn't fifty percent just either successfully summoning one or failing to summon one? Wasn't that the same probability as flipping a coin?

If his luck was a little bad, wouldn't he lose out terribly? How could you have the nerve to offer such a reward?!

"Wuwuwu~ Host, don't be angry. I'll adjust the probability for you right away."

"Ding! Summoning probability adjusted to ninety percent."

Jiang Chen slowly let out a breath. Now that was more like it!

"System, use the summoning chance."

"Ding! Drawing character..."

"Congratulations, Host. You have drawn Dongfang Yuechu from Fox Spirit Matchmaker..."

Jiang Chen looked at the yellow-robed Daoist who had appeared out of thin air before him. Above the yellow-robed Daoist's head, Jiang Chen could see a pale blue Arabic numeral—99!

The yellow-robed Daoist's long hair flowed freely without appearing messy, carrying an air of carefree ease. So this was the demon Daoist Dongfang Yuechu?

Thump—

"Dongfang Yuechu greets Young Master!"

Dongfang Yuechu dropped to one knee and saluted.

"Brother Yuechu, there's no need for such a formal gesture..."

Jiang Chen hurriedly helped Dongfang Yuechu up. He did not know what the system had given Dongfang Yuechu to make the usually unyielding man treat him with such respect. Or perhaps this was not the real Dongfang Yuechu at all, but one manifested by the system, like a robot programmed with code—an order that he could never disobey.

"You are a level ninety-nine Limit Douluo?"

Dongfang Yuechu replied respectfully, "Yes, Young Master."

Jiang Chen felt as if he were flying with joy. A level ninety-nine Limit Douluo was at his command—in the current stage, that was peak combat power!

Furthermore, Dongfang Yuechu should be considered to possess twin martial souls. The first was the Void Tear, and the second was the Pure Yang Flame. Both were top-tier innate divine abilities. Even if Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen joined forces, they might not be able to gain any advantage against Dongfang Yuechu.

The only thing Jiang Chen worried about was that Dongfang Yuechu had appeared in his loft, which was also part of Bibi Dong's chambers. It would be easy to expose himself.

Jiang Chen asked, "Can you leave Wuhun Hall without being discovered?"

"Young Master, with my current strength, entering and leaving Wuhun Hall without a sound would not be difficult..."

Jiang Chen nodded in satisfaction. "Good. I have a task for you now, and you must complete it!"

"I will give you a portrait. Go wait in the Star Dou Great Forest. Do not let that little girl leave the Star Dou Great Forest, or meet any boys with colored hair."

"Yes, Young Master."

Based on his impression of the character from the anime he had watched in the past, Jiang Chen drew a picture for Dongfang Yuechu. Jiang Chen was extremely satisfied with it. He had studied drawing for two and a half years, and it had finally come in handy.

"Good, go." Jiang Chen handed the drawing to Dongfang Yuechu and gave his instructions.

Seeing that Dongfang Yuechu had yet to leave, Jiang Chen asked, "Why are you still here? Have you sensed some trouble?"

"It would be fine for you to stay here another night."

Dongfang Yuechu spoke with some difficulty. "Young Master, that's not it. You didn't give me a map, so I don't know where it is!"

Jiang Chen froze upon hearing this. It seemed he really had not told him—but Jiang Chen did not know either!

"Ahem, how about this? Once you leave Wuhun City, just find someone and ask for directions."

"Yes."

In merely a few breaths, Dongfang Yuechu's figure vanished from before Jiang Chen. Fortunately, Jiang Chen had fused with the Wisdom Soul Bone; otherwise, he truly would not have been able to see how Dongfang Yuechu had left.

Within a pitch-black shadow, a phantom-like figure swiftly appeared, then vanished without a trace.

"Junior Brother, are you asleep?"
