The Master's Orders, Fortune's Child Mode!
That night, in a small patch of woods not far from Shrek Academy, a beating of unspeakable brutality took place.
The earth looked as though it had been pounded by a hammer more than a dozen times, setting off one small earthquake after another. It was hard to imagine whether Zhao Wuji could survive.
And from the looks of it, Zhao Wuji seemed destined to be beaten all night!
Awoo~
Sensing the presence of an unprecedentedly powerful expert, the Scarlet Flame Lion stood on Tianyu's shoulder and began hissing wildly.
"What? You want to go fight a Titled Douluo too?"
Tianyu smiled faintly, though his own blood was boiling as he spoke.
In response, the Scarlet Flame Lion, clearly no bigger than a palm in its toy form, blinked its big eyes, which were full of longing for battle.
"Using just two Soul Rings, the fused Heaven-Breaking Stone was enough to evolve the Scarlet Flame Lion's Divine Soul and give it combat power comparable to a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast."
"And now I've broken through to Soul Elder and have three Soul Rings, one yellow and two purple. If I evolved your Divine Soul again, just how powerful would your combat strength become?"
As he stroked the Scarlet Flame Lion's head, Tianyu reflected with emotion.
In the Soul World, the Scarlet Flame Lion was known as a Golden Divine Soul, and its strength made it the most powerful of the Three Divine Souls. If it superevolved into a Blazing Lion...
"A Divine Soul on the level of an ancient creator god. I wonder how it would perform in this Douluo Universe?"
Tianyu sighed inwardly and forcibly suppressed his own fervor, along with the Scarlet Flame Lion's enthusiasm for battle.
"Don't worry. There'll be a fight, sooner or later."
Just as Tianyu was filled with anticipation for the future, a rapid, rhythmic knocking came from the door: knock, knock, knock.
Tianyu's eyes lit up at once. Because of the suggestion that morning, he and Zhu Zhuqing had moved to a private room some distance from the dormitory.
Zhu Zhuqing: "Gulp~"
"It's all right, keep eating!" Tianyu gently patted Little Kitty on the back of her head, his face full of affection.
But that left Little Kitty in a sorry state. She nearly couldn't catch her breath, and her beautiful eyes were hazy.
The next moment, Tianyu took a deep breath and used his newly strengthened mental power while soothing Little Kitty.
The wisp of flame in his hand slowly transformed into a palm made of Soul Power.
"It's only shown initial results, but opening a door should be doable..."
With a click, the door opened, revealing none other than Xiao Wu.
In an instant, Tianyu and Xiao Wu stared at each other. Now that she had come here, she could finally say that word, "master," from the bottom of her heart, without having to hide it.
"Master..." Xiao Wu had wanted to say something more, but as soon as the door opened...
Zhu Zhuqing, who had been so cold and aloof toward Dai Mubai that morning, was now such a shameless little slut!
"You..." Xiao Wu was instantly overcome with shyness. Yet for some reason, a powerful desire welled up in her heart, and she even wanted it a little rougher!
"This is my reward for Zhu Zhuqing. Don't worry, as long as you do well, you'll get a special reward too."
Tianyu said it as though it were only natural. The moment Xiao Wu heard it, she was filled with passion, her whole body burning hot.
"Yes, Master!"
"Xiao Wu will do her best..." she said earnestly. As for Tang San, who had accompanied her since childhood and could be called her childhood sweetheart, he no longer seemed important.
Tang San: "?"
"Next, I need to get a complete illustrated catalog of Immortal Herbs from Tang San. It needs to show what the Immortal Herbs look like, as well as the different ways to take them."
"Besides that, I also need an extremely detailed and complete diagram explaining the human body's meridians. Whether it's meridians or acupoints, I want them all."
"For now, those are the only two things I need, so I'll have to leave the work with Tang San to you, Xiao Wu. Don't disappoint me!"
Tianyu frowned slightly and rubbed his chin. He looked at Xiao Wu with eyes full of hope and smiled as he spoke.
"Mm!"
"Xiao Wu definitely won't disappoint Master. For Xiao Wu's happiness, Third Brother will definitely help me too."
Since her master had given an order, Xiao Wu, as a Contract Beast, would naturally do everything she could to obtain them!
Those words not only came from the bottom of her heart; Xiao Wu was also full of confidence in herself.
"All right, you can go."
After giving his orders, Tianyu waved a hand. He merely stroked Xiao Wu's rabbit ears, setting her heart surging, and indicated that she could leave.
"But... Xiao Wu wants it too~"
"Don't worry. Complete the task, and you'll get a reward." At that moment, Tianyu seemed to unleash the primordial power within him and immediately gave his final order.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu was still a little disappointed. She gave Zhu Zhuqing a long look, her eyes filled with excitement and envy, before leaving at an unhurried pace.
After an unknown amount of time, only Tianyu and Little Kitty remained in the room. One of them was full of vigor, refreshed, and clear-eyed.
The other had long since fallen fast asleep, her face flushed.
It was worth mentioning that, compared to when she had first arrived at Shrek Academy, Zhu Zhuqing's complexion had grown increasingly dewy.
"Good, the plans are all underway now."
"As expected, choosing to form a Soul Contract with Xiao Wu was the right decision."
"As soon as I get the Immortal Herb catalog, it won't really matter even if I leave Shrek Academy!"
"If I can get the meridian and acupoint diagram, and even use Xiao Wu to scheme for the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, that'll be an even bigger gain."
The thought made Tianyu a little excited.
At the same time, he looked at the pink screen before him, which was plainly nothing respectable, and couldn't help growing even more curious.
"Is a Soul Contract really the only thing I can use the Fortune Points I worked so hard to get for?"
"Fortune... how could it be such an inconvenient thing?"
"In that case, I'll investigate." True to his word, Tianyu immediately began swiping through the pink screen while he was in sage mode.
He might have been better off not looking too closely. As soon as he flipped through it, he discovered something major: the system, which he had assumed was locked in portrait mode, actually had pages he could turn.
Tianyu merely swiped his finger, and his eyes instantly widened like bronze bells. The screen actually had two modes: one respectable, and one not.
With a single turn of the page, the pink screen turned gold, and the uses for Fortune Points instantly became as respectable as could be.
[Fortune's Child Mode!] [By spending a certain amount of Fortune Points, one can temporarily obtain all the abilities of a darling of heaven and earth, a child of fortune.] [These include surviving great disasters, finding a way out of desperate straits, turning danger into safety, turning misfortune into blessings, fortuitous opportunities falling from the heavens, gaining a thousand insights from a single lesson, receiving help from benefactors, treasures coming of their own accord, and so on...]
Tianyu: "?????"
"Good, good, good! So the system has a hidden mode!"
"I was wondering why the system wasn't respectable. Turns out it really wasn't respectable~"
Zhu Zhuqing said nothing to this, remaining cold on the outside and shameless on the inside!
