Within Spirit City, Bibi Dong, the current Pope of Spirit Hall, sat quietly in her seat. Perhaps because no one else was present, her posture was somewhat languid, her fair fingers lightly propping up her delicate face.
Smiling, Bibi Dong looked at the young man before her.
"Xiao Bai, you're already twelve years old, and your Soul Power has reached level thirty-five. Before long, you may be able to advance to a four-ring Soul Ancestor."
Bibi Dong spoke softly.
Chu Bai nodded. "Teacher, you promised that once I reach level forty, you'll give me a reward."
Seeing the boy's glib manner, Bibi Dong feigned anger. "Cultivation is your own business. Are you doing it just for rewards?"
"I don't care for anyone else's rewards, except those from a teacher as beautiful and captivating as you." Chu Bai said.
"So you dare tease your teacher now? Go back first."
Bibi Dong was helpless, yet she could not summon even the slightest anger toward the boy before her.
Chu Bai was her personal disciple. Many years ago, Chu Bai had appeared in Spirit City. For some reason, from the very first time she saw him, Bibi Dong had been especially fond of this child.
Thus, Bibi Dong had accepted him as her personal disciple. Six full years had now passed.
"Ah, Bibi Dong is just too beautiful. Standing in front of her, I didn't even dare raise my head."
After returning to his residence, Chu Bai sighed.
He was not from Douluo Continent, but had transmigrated here. He had also retained all his memories from before his transmigration, which gave him an exceptionally thorough understanding of the plot of Douluo Continent.
Six years ago, he had arrived on Douluo Continent and awakened a special Martial Soul, the Demon Slaying Axe. It did not seem to be one of the common Martial Souls of Douluo Continent, but according to Bibi Dong's assessment, it was a top-tier Martial Soul capable of rivaling the Clear Sky Hammer.
Chu Bai's cultivation talent was also extraordinary. He now possessed level thirty-five Soul Power.
[Diary Instance activated. The host may obtain rewards by complaining in the diary. The system will grant rewards of different grades based on the intensity of the host's complaints. The host may currently record two characters.]
Chu Bai froze, then his eyes widened as he said excitedly, "My Golden Finger finally arrived. I thought I'd have to wait until I became a Titled Douluo."
"Diary Instance... I can become stronger just by writing a diary? Then what am I cultivating for?"
An ancient-looking diary slowly appeared before Chu Bai. He opened the first page, and a line of text emerged upon it.
[Please write down the names of the characters to be recorded...]
"Can I only complain about two people in the diary?" Lin Mu frowned slightly. That did not seem like nearly enough.
When it came to Douluo, there was a whole pile of things he wanted to complain about. Like Bibi Dong insisting on falling for that useless scumbag Yu Xiaogang, Qian Renxue's golden liquid, and Zhu Zhuqing forgiving Dai Mubai. That Dai Mubai had even tried everything with twin sisters!
I haven't even tried it, yet you got to enjoy it.
[As the host's abilities improve, more complaint targets may be unlocked. Note: the host may only complain about female characters.] [Novice reward issued to the host: Martial Soul Evolution, Pangu Axe! The age of the first Soul Ring has been upgraded to nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine years!]
Thrilled that his strength had improved, Chu Bai wrote down two names in the diary.
Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue.
"I have to start with this mother and daughter. Thinking about their eventual fates, they're both pitiful people. Still, I can only complain about them in my diary. If I told them about the future now, they'd probably think I was insane."
"Still, changing history would be easy enough."
At the same time, in two luxurious rooms in different locations, a diary suddenly appeared before Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue.
"What is this?"
Within the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, Qian Renxue's angelic features were reflected in a mirror. Her golden hair fell loosely down her back, while her casual attire faintly outlined her curvaceous figure.
Late at night, when all was quiet, Qian Renxue was still accustomed to returning to her original appearance. This was her true self.
"Chu Bai's exclusive diary?"
Qian Renxue frowned slightly. She had some impression of the name Chu Bai. "He seems to be that woman's personal disciple. Why would his diary appear here?"
Elsewhere, Bibi Dong was equally puzzled. Why had this diary appeared before her out of thin air? Could it be Chu Bai?
But with Chu Bai's Soul Elder-level strength, how could he possibly pull tricks right under her nose?
Curious, the two women opened the diary.
Then, ink suddenly emerged across the previously blank pages, forming line after line of text.
[My name is Chu Bai. Ever since awakening my Martial Soul, I've struggled and scraped by for six years. Six whole years! Do you know how I spent those six years?!] [For six years, I waited every day for my Golden Finger to arrive. It finally came! If becoming stronger by writing a diary had a time limit, then I hope it would be ten thousand years!]
These somewhat crazed words deepened the confusion on Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue's faces.
Golden Finger?
What did that mean? Did it mean a fortuitous opportunity?
"What is this Golden Finger? Could Xiao Bai have obtained some opportunity of his own? But what does becoming stronger by writing a diary mean?"
Bibi Dong did not recall Chu Bai ever telling her such things. On the path of cultivation, one could only grow stronger through arduous training. Becoming stronger merely by moving a pen—no one would believe that if they heard it.
"He says he can become stronger by writing a diary? How could there be something so absurd under heaven?" Qian Renxue said disdainfully. If one could truly become stronger simply by putting pen to paper...
This world would have long since implemented compulsory education...
"Still, this diary that appeared out of thin air, along with these words that appeared out of nowhere, do not seem like ordinary methods. Did Chu Bai secretly place this here? But how could the words appear out of thin air?"
Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue were both intelligent people. Although this diary appearing out of nowhere was absurd, their curiosity still made them continue reading.
"Over these six years, Xiao Bai's strength has already risen to level thirty-five. That is no easy feat, so how could he call it struggling and scraping by?" Bibi Dong continued flipping through the diary.
Qian Renxue was also somewhat curious about her mother's personal disciple, so she continued reading as well.
[It's really been stifling me. I usually can't complain, but today I can finally let it all out. Tell me, Bibi Dong could have liked anyone, so why did she insist on falling for a level twenty-nine piece of trash?] [When I was reading the novel, I never understood it. All that theoretical knowledge he was so proud of had been summarized from materials Bibi Dong gave him, with some nonsense of his own thrown in. Then it somehow became Martial Soul theory, and he even turned around and called himself the Grandmaster.] [More like a great con artist! He swindled people all day long. The records said that the maximum age for a Soul Master's first Soul Ring in the past was four hundred and twenty years. He added three years to it himself, and there it was, his theory. Brilliant!]
