Chapter 101: The Third Simulation, Start!

Under Xu Xi’s gaze, the simulator’s progress bar slowly crept up until it reached its peak and stopped.

Every bit, every drop.

Was fueled by extraordinary items from the martial path.

A true pay-to-win simulation.

[Martial Path Anchor Medium loaded]

[Congratulations, Host, you have gained a simulation chance. Would you like to start a wonderful simulated life?]

[Current simulation chances: 1]

The simulator’s prompt sounded, and the panel loaded text simultaneously, densely packed.

Xu Xi didn’t hesitate, decisively selecting the button to start the simulation.

The rewards from the second simulation had already been fully digested, and now, he needed the third simulation to join in.

[Simulation starting…]

[Worldline simulation in progress…]

[Locking on a transmigratable world, analyzing as a Martial Path world]

[Generating traits, traits generated. Please select three traits as your character’s innate talents for this simulated life]

[Trait levels: White, Green, Blue, Purple, Gold, Red]

Persistence (Gold): Your efforts will be rewarded, and the longer you persist in something, the greater the rewards.

Strength of an Ox (Green): Your strength is comparable to that of a plowing ox, making you a renowned strongman in the area.

Martial Evolution (Purple): Over time, your martial arts will evolve like life itself, with a small chance of transforming into a higher-level martial art.

Mixed Reputation (White): You are feared by both the righteous and the underworld, but you are also prone to attracting hostility from young heroes.

Staff Mastery (Blue): You are highly skilled in using staff weapons, especially in techniques like splitting, thrusting, and standing staff, capable of deflecting arrows.

Surging Vitality (Purple): You have an innate strong body with vigorous vitality, making you impervious to ordinary ghosts and giving you a furnace-like presence at night.

“This time’s traits…”

“Feel a bit… mediocre?”

Xu Xi quickly scanned the simulator panel, looking at the six displayed traits, slightly puzzled.

But he soon let it go.

The appearance of red traits was never easy.

Gold and purple traits were the high-end goods in normal simulations. If luck was extremely bad, getting six white traits wasn’t impossible.

“With this Persistence trait, at least there’s a safety net for this simulation.”

Xu Xi quickly selected the traits.

Persistence (Gold), Martial Evolution (Purple), Surging Vitality (Purple).

One gold, two purple.

A perfect combination.

This was Xu Xi’s final setup for the third simulation.

[Traits selected. Start simulation?]

“Confirm.”

As Xu Xi started the simulation, the familiar sense of detachment hit him again. Perhaps because Xu Xi’s strength had improved, this simulation didn’t make him as dizzy as before.

He saw.

He saw “himself” detach from his original body.

The world froze, everything absolutely still. His sister and the witch seemed to sense something, but their movements were so slow and silent in Xu Xi’s eyes.

Finally, Xu Xi’s consciousness completely detached from reality, flying towards the endless “lines.”

The starlight was dazzling, representing infinite possibilities.

Each line meant a completely different time and space.

Xu Xi, wrapped by the simulator, crashed straight into one of the “lines,” uncontrollably plunging deep into it.

[Simulation No. 03 officially begins]

[You open your eyes, finding yourself sitting in the living room of your home]

[You don’t see Xu Moli, nor Cressa, but you see another all-too-familiar roaring figure]

[You are fast, agile, and quickly run to the second floor]

[Soon, a heavy truck crashes through the first-floor wall with unstoppable force, but for you on the second floor, it poses no threat]

[You smile]

[Your smile suddenly freezes]

[The truck transforms, its front becoming a head and chest, its body turning into a waist and legs, taking on a grand robot form you’ve never seen before, and with a single light-speed punch, it sends you flying]

[You are brutally knocked away by the truck]

Consciousness blurred.

As if tumbled in a washing machine dozens, hundreds of times.

When Xu Xi opened his eyes again, the world had changed, presenting a completely new landscape and architecture.

[You received a painless transmigration package]

[Upon waking, you find yourself in a brand-new world]

[This is a world dedicated to the Martial Path, with no immortal cultivators soaring through the skies, nor flashy mages, only the pinnacle of Qi and Blood Martial Arts]

[Fists can shake the heavens, steps can split the earth]

[This is a grand world where physical strength is pushed to its limits, where might resides solely in the flesh]

[You marvel at the wonders of Qi and Blood Martial Arts, but the discomfort in your body quickly makes you realize your situation isn’t great]

[Your body has changed to that of a 16-year-old, slightly thin but brimming with vitality]

[You are hungry, your first task after transmigrating is to solve your hunger]

Dust and sand fill the sky.

The neighing of horses.

The howling wind.

Xu Xi struggles to get up from the ground.

He stands and looks around, finding dense vegetation, lush leaves, with a wide gravel road in the middle, where people occasionally gallop past on horses.

Those horses are not ordinary.

Red-eyed, fierce, with blue-black scales covering their bodies, kicking up dust as they gallop.

“I remember…”

“I saw it in the materials bought from the Supernatural Administration Bureau.”

“Those are Azure Scale Horses, a specialty of some Martial Path worlds, hybrids of Azure Scale Fish and labor oxen, cheap and easy to breed, one of the most common horses in the Martial Path.”

Xu Xi twists his neck and shrugs his shoulders.

He walks along the gravel road.

He plans to find a town or village first, slowly figure out the world’s situation, and then proceed with further development.

His gaze lowers, the gravel at his feet looks shattered.

As if trampled by wild horses for years, exceeding its load-bearing limit.

“Feels a bit微妙…”

“Last simulation, steam engines were highly developed, even without magic, civilization was almost modern.”

“Compared to that, this Martial Path world feels like a strong throwback to ancient times.”

“But that’s normal.”

“Practitioners of the Qi and Blood Martial Arts system often focus on strength growth, neglecting mental and wisdom improvements. Expecting them to develop civilization is indeed a bit too much.”

At this moment, Xu Xi recalls Wang Dali from the Yanshan City Supernatural Administration Bureau.

Wang Dali’s so-called super intelligence.

Basically, using super strength to crush dissent.

“Tsk, maybe this time, I’ll have to play the brute too.”
