[Ding! Goddess Life Simulator launching for the fifth time. Host, please enter the simulation!]
[Would you like to begin the simulation? (In this simulation, all character personalities and actions are derived from the laws of heaven and earth, fully aligning with reality and may serve as reference for the host's future life!)]
[Yes / No?]
Liu Erlong couldn't sleep. In the last simulation, she was assassinated as soon as she entered, barely understanding what had even happened.
This time, she was waiting for it. The moment the prompt appeared, she immediately clicked "Yes".
And so, the interface displayed: Binding successful.
She noticed a new profile portrait on the screen. With a single thought, the portrait expanded into Zhou Sheng'an's stat panel.
The panel revealed detailed stats—soul power, physical strength, intelligence, morality... A dense list of numbers appeared.
Liu Erlong quickly focused on the intelligence stat. A staggering 100.
Then she glanced at her own: 77.
"What the hell? There's that much of a gap between us?" Liu Erlong was unwilling to accept it, but after checking Zhou Sheng'an's other stats and comparing them with her own, her indignant expression quickly faded.
Comparisons really do kill.
She couldn't keep looking, or she'd develop an inferiority complex!
"So what happens next?" Liu Erlong still didn't quite understand.
The prompt updated in the next second.
[On November 15th, 2023 of the Douluo Calendar, you were handling administrative work at Blue Tyrant Academy. Due to a theory published by Zhou Sheng'an, your workload drastically increased. As a result, you appointed Flender as vice dean and pushed most of the work onto him.]
"!!!" Liu Erlong froze. This prompt sounded way too realistic.
[On November 27th, 2023 of the Douluo Calendar, the soul master world was shaken by the theoretical results published by Zhou Sheng'an, drawing massive attention. For a time, nearly all soul masters' eyes were on Blue Tyrant Academy.]
[The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Heaven Dou Imperial Family, Heaven Dou Royal Academy… All these factions rushed over and openly expressed support for Zhou Sheng'an, even joining forces to ensure his safety.]
[Zhou Sheng'an rose to fame. For his contributions to the soul master world, he was bestowed the title: Sage Master.]
"!!!"
"This… this… how is this so real? The events before the simulation are all exactly the same. Does that mean Zhou Sheng'an will actually do these things in the future?"
"It's very possible! So then what's the point of the simulation?"
Liu Erlong rubbed her temples. Suddenly, something clicked.
She focused completely and chose to personally experience the simulation.
[On November 29th, 2023 of the Douluo Calendar, Yu Xiaogang brought his disciple Tang San to visit. You did not meet them and instead sent Flender alone, stating you were unwilling to meet for the time being.]
The scene shifted to the dean's office.
After hearing Liu Erlong's instructions, Flender wore a complex expression—joy, worry, disbelief. Spring had finally come for him! Erlong was finally no longer obsessed with Yu Xiaogang.
"Erlong, you made the right choice! You and Xiaogang are impossible! And the academy can't do without Zhou Sheng'an!" Flender said excitedly.
Liu Erlong's lips twitched. "Got it…"
"Boss Flender, even you think so?" Liu Erlong muttered.
Flender nodded firmly and said, "Yes. Though the Golden Iron Triangle shares a deep bond, I can't just watch you be so stubborn! Erlong, it's time you found your own happiness."
Flender's eyes burned as he stared at Liu Erlong. What he meant was: Happiness is becoming my wife.
After all, he'd been single for decades and had always been deeply devoted.
But Liu Erlong clearly didn't pick up on his intentions. Her emotions churned within, and gradually, her gaze grew clear. Maybe it really was time to let go of that old relationship.
Flender said a few more words before leaving, overjoyed.
Liu Erlong stared at his departing figure, deep in thought.
Letting go of Yu Xiaogang wasn't as hard as she'd imagined.
...
"This is actually real…" Liu Erlong stared in shock. Only now did she truly understand the Goddess Simulator's instructions—and then came overwhelming regret.
Such a valuable opportunity, and she had treated it like an inner demon and stayed far away!
So embarrassing!
"Then, who was it last time? Who dared to assassinate me…" Liu Erlong had previously suspected Bibi Dong, thinking it was a matter of romantic rivalry. But now, a new theory came to mind.
...
"This time, which woman snatched the initiative first?"
Bibi Dong was puzzled. She had already kicked Chrysanthemum Douluo out. Now she was alone in the main hall.
Suddenly, she laughed and muttered to herself, "I'll just restart it directly and see what that little girl Qian Renxue is capable of."
The scene shifted.
Bibi Dong walked straight out of the hall, gathered a few Titled Douluos, and charged toward Heaven Dou City with overwhelming momentum!
After all, she already had what she wanted. Zhou Sheng'an was no longer as valuable to her. Since that was the case, she naturally wouldn't allow others to cling to his thigh.
She would kill Zhou Sheng'an and start the next simulation.
The delay between rounds would probably grow longer, but through repetition, she would gain the most among all the players!
At the same time, the only person who could threaten her now was Qian Daoliu. This would be the perfect opportunity to force Qian Renxue to bring him out. Then she could see what might unfold.
If Zhou Sheng'an really did die, well…
No one knew what she might do.
One thing was certain—she still occasionally spasmed from the memory of that tentacle penetrating her body. Zhou Sheng'an had left her with psychological trauma!
...
Meanwhile, in Tang Yuehua's room, the girls had entered the simulation together. As they chatted, they operated the simulator.
"Seems like everything's still going smoothly. Teacher Zhou has already become famous again and is once more known as the Sage Master. I've arranged for my grandfather to stay nearby. If Bibi Dong dares hurt Teacher Zhou, my grandfather will step in immediately!" said Dugu Yan.
"Grandpa Sword and my dad will help too. They're both at Blue Tyrant Academy!" Ning Rongrong lifted her little face proudly.
Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu stayed silent. There wasn't much they could do.
One had no voice in the Star Luo Royal Family, and the other was a soul beast. All she could summon were two hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts, who'd probably get mobbed before they even got close!
"The Heaven Dou Royal Family has also issued a statement," Princess Xue Ke added.
Tang Yuehua gave a slight nod. She had also called a few elders from the Clear Sky Clan to secretly protect Zhou Sheng'an.
She had a strong feeling: that crazy woman Bibi Dong would never allow them all to stay by Zhou Sheng'an's side. This was just the calm before the storm.
[Zhou Sheng'an publishes another theory—announcing the soul ring configuration theory involving fusion rings. The soul master world is once again shaken.]
[The title of Sage Master spreads even wider, winning over even more hearts.]
Upon seeing the prompt, Shui Bing'er changed the subject and said, "So Teacher Zhou had such a kind heart. He even made those valuable theories public…"
Huo Wu scoffed, "He's really generous. I bet soul masters from commoner backgrounds worship him now."
Xiao Wu didn't like the tone and sneered, "It's not like he's eating your rice. Why are you so sarcastic? If you don't like my teacher, you're free to leave Blue Tyrant Academy."
"You—!" Huo Wu glared at Xiao Wu.
