[At age 20, you were sent flying by a Dayun truck. You died.] [You gained the opportunity to reincarnate on the Douluo Continent. Available attribute points: 20] [Looks: 0, intelligence: 0, constitution: 0, family background: 0]
"As everyone knows, intelligence is the last thing you need in Douluo!!"
Xiao Xing looked closely and discovered that each of the four attributes had a minus sign before it and a plus sign after it.
Brimming with confidence, he immediately began frantically clicking the minus sign before intelligence. Unfortunately, it stopped responding at -10, and his available attribute points went from 20 to 30.
"Minus ten intelligence? That's not my limit. That's this panel's limit."
Xiao Xing felt a little disappointed.
If he could keep clicking, he could have pushed his intelligence through the roof-in the negative direction, of course.
"Compared to intelligence, looks are pretty important in Douluo. Max them out!"
Xiao Xing raised his looks to 10 and clicked a few more times, but unfortunately, the plus sign stopped responding.
He turned his attention to the other attributes. "Constitution-in Douluo, that should be Innate Soul Power? Max that out too!"
Constitution was raised to 10.
"Family background-wouldn't I be screwed if I were born into a dirt-poor family? Max that out too!"
Family background was raised to 10.
Of course, that was also because Xiao Xing had nowhere left to put his points except family background. He couldn't just waste attribute points.
With all his attribute points allocated, Xiao Xing looked at the reincarnation button and murmured:
"Whale rubber, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud. Remember those three, and even an idiot can become a god!"
With that, Xiao Xing pressed the reincarnation button.
The next instant, his vision went black. His intelligence receded like the tide, and an idiot's happiness welled up in his heart.
Ah, I really want to go jellyfishing with SpongeBob SquarePants!
Hmm? What's SpongeBob SquarePants? Huh, what was I supposed to remember again? Abba, abba.
Ten years passed in the blink of an eye.
Qian Renxing's intelligence was finally no longer in the red. He finally remembered that he was a reincarnator, along with the three things he needed to remember: whale rubber, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
"Holy shit, I really became an idiot. Thank goodness I finally remembered."
Qian Renxing hurriedly searched his resplendent palace for a pen so he could write those three things down. He had already forgotten once; he couldn't forget a second time.
But he had forgotten one thing: he was an idiot, and he couldn't write at all.
He didn't even know where the pens were kept. He had never touched a pen in this life. After all, no one would make an idiot write.
"Where's the pen? Where's the pen? Where's my pen?"
Qian Renxing was as frantic as an ant on a hot pan, so anxious that sweat covered his forehead.
"Holy Son, here's a pen."
Fortunately, his personal maid Sisi brought him a pen.
But after taking it, Qian Renxing froze again. "How do you write again? I remember knowing how!"
"Holy Son, have you forgotten? You never knew how to write. The Great Enshrined feared you would be bullied at the Soul Master Academy, so you never attended a single day of school. He only hired some teachers to instruct you."
"You said looking at those characters gave you a headache, and you drove away the teacher who taught you to read."
Sisi tactfully reminded Qian Renxing of the fact that he was an idiot.
Of course, she meant no disrespect. In fact, she felt deeply grateful to this idiot Holy Son. She had only become Qian Renxing's personal maid because he had casually pointed at her back at Spirit Hall Academy and said he wanted her as his maid.
Only then had she, a Spirit Hall Academy dropout who was originally supposed to become a deacon at the Spirit Hall Branch in the remote little Nuoding City, soared onto a golden bough and become a phoenix.
"Oh, I remember now. I'm an idiot. I can't read at all. Right, I'm also the Holy Son. I come from a great family."
Qian Renxing felt perfectly at ease. He tossed the pen aside and ordered Sisi to write it down for him. "Hurry and write this down for me: whale rubber, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud!"
"Yes, Holy Son. This servant will write it down for you right away."
Sisi hurriedly took a notebook out of her Space Soul Tool as well and wrote down the words Qian Renxing had requested.
Even after hearing what her Holy Son had just said, she showed no sign of anything amiss. After all, her Holy Son really was an idiot.
He was already quite normal now. He even knew he was an idiot and came from a great family. He was already very much like a normal person!
"Give it to me! Hurry, tear it out and give it to me!"
Seeing that Sisi had finished writing, Qian Renxing hurriedly told her to tear out the page and give it to him, afraid she would steal this shortcut to godhood.
Sisi immediately tore out the page she had written on and respectfully handed it to Qian Renxing. "Holy Son, these are the words you asked me to write."
But after taking the slip of paper and looking at the ghostly scrawls that gave him a headache at a glance, Qian Renxing found himself stumped again. After all, he really couldn't read.
"You aren't fooling me, are you? I may be an idiot, but let me tell you, I'm not easy to fool!"
Qian Renxing looked at the characters that gave him a headache at a glance, then eyed Sisi suspiciously, somewhat doubtful that she wouldn't fool him. "I'll test you and see whether you're fooling me."
"All right, Holy Son. Test me however you like."
Sisi was secretly delighted. She hadn't expected her Holy Son to truly become smarter. He even knew how to test people now.
"All right, then. Tell me, who's my dad?"
Qian Renxing asked earnestly.
He had already been reincarnated for ten years, yet he still didn't know who his dad was? Uh, perhaps he had forgotten?
"Holy Son, have you forgotten? Your father was the former Supreme Pontiff, Qian Xunji. Not long after you were born, Lord Qian Xunji was gravely wounded by Tang Hao, the Clear Sky Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect, and died of his injuries."
Sisi explained earnestly.
"Oh, oh, I remember now! My dad died ages ago! No wonder I couldn't remember."
Realization dawned on Qian Renxing.
No wonder he couldn't remember who his father was. It turned out to be Qian Xunji. Qian Xunji had died early, not long after he was born, so he had no memory of him at all.
Hearing Qian Renxing's words, Sisi wore an indescribable expression. But remembering that her Holy Son was an idiot, she could understand him being a little blunt.
"Right, don't I have an older sister too? Huh, why can't I quite remember her name?"
Qian Renxing had some impression of his older sister, but he also couldn't quite remember her.
Sisi explained, "Yes, Holy Son, you also have an older sister named Qian Renxue. After Her Holiness the Supreme Pontiff chose you as Holy Son, her whereabouts became unknown."
"Oh, oh, I remember now."
Qian Renxing recalled a little and immediately burst out laughing. "Hahaha, what a scrub! And she's supposed to be my older sister? She couldn't even beat an idiot and got so mad she ran away from home!"
Sisi's expression couldn't help growing even stranger. That did seem to be what had happened? But for the Holy Son to put it that way was rather like killing someone and then stabbing them in the heart.
"Right, don't I have a mom too? Who's my mom?"
Qian Renxing started asking again. His head really was empty; nothing had remained in it.
Sisi replied, "Your Highness the Holy Son, your mother is Her Holiness Bibi Dong, the current Supreme Pontiff. She dotes on you the most. She was the one who chose you as Holy Son."
