Journey to the West: Life Simulation of Sun Wukong

"The so-called Supreme Cup is the ultimate competition in martial arts..."

After Cao Jingjing's introduction, Su Jie finally understood. Wasn't this just a battle royale game?

When he was in junior high, he had secretly downloaded Ming Lun's two games on his parents' phone, yet compared to martial arts supremacy, Elite Battle was more interesting.

Even though he had dreamed of martial arts during his junior high years, Elite Battle was still more appealing to him on his phone.

And guns are the romance of men!

Swords?

Outdated.

It wasn't until the advent of virtual games that martial arts supremacy began to surpass Elite Battle and left it far behind.

Just setting the realism to one hundred percent, the picturesque scenery alone made people linger and forget to return. Even now, many people shoot videos of the scenic views within martial arts supremacy, edit videos, and gain traffic.

However, the Supreme Cup was special.

Players entering the game didn't need to pick up equipment or learn skills as usual.

Whatever they were capable of, they could fully utilize inside.

The freedom was extremely high!

Moreover, the champion's prize was also very rich, which was an energy creature.

It was a peculiar creature from some energy dimension, without intelligence, but it could coexist with sentient beings, instinctively helping the host absorb external energy, and could change according to the host's thoughts, growing along with the host.

This chapter was made possible by the community at MV|LEM|PYR.

It could be said to be a cheating device for cultivation!

But when this thing first appeared, many people were not keen on it.

No matter how you put it, it was a living creature. Having a living creature enter one's body did not sit well with many.

Although the human body also possessed countless microorganisms, these were not the same concept as forcefully inserting an external existence into the body.

However, as time passed, people's ideas would inevitably change.

Now, this energy creature was priceless in the market.

Ming Lun had already changed its sales strategy, which could only be exchanged internally through contributions to Ming Lun, or offered as a prize in some events.

This time the Supreme Cup put up the energy creature as a prize.

"Energy creatures, according to the current human vitality measurement, are also divided into several levels, roughly including nuclear, satellite, planetary, and stellar levels," Zhang Manman said, holding up a finger and speaking mysteriously.

"Stellar level?"

Su Jie gaped.

From Ming Lun's introduction, a nuclear-level energy creature could form a set of powerful energy armor, capable of protecting the human body from nuclear-level strikes without a scratch.

Stellar level, its might was unimaginable!

However, the more powerful the energy creature, the stronger the host's control ability must be to bring out its true effects; otherwise, the energy creature could only passively protect the host.

It could be said, if the life force is below 10, regardless of whether the energy creature is nuclear or stellar level, it wouldn't matter much as they couldn't manage the energy at that realm; at most, the energy creature would instinctively protect the host in extremely dangerous circumstances, and that's all.

Moreover, according to research, if life force could break through 10, the energy creature could play its real role, and the more powerful the energy creature, the stronger its might.

Still, these were all theories.

Because, on the entire Earth, the only known individuals with life force over 10 other than those few presidents and vice-presidents were Zhao Xinglong and Cao Jingjing.

Whether these two had energy creatures inside them remained an unknown.

"That's right, stellar level," Zhang Manman said. "For our future, this is indispensable, and it can greatly reduce the time we spend consuming nutrients."

"Although it's only during the Embryonic Breathing Realm that we can truly utilize the energy creatures' effect, I believe that you will definitely be the first one to reach the Embryonic Breathing Realm besides the presidents," Zhang Manman added.

"Earlier than Zhao Xinglong and Cao Jingjing."

Zhao Xinglong and Cao Jingjing had a life force of 20, but their Spirit Realm was still ordinary, only boosted by their special Cultivation Techniques, Taixu Thunder Seal and Taixu Wind Seal, making their foundation stronger than ordinary people's.

Their condensation of holy embryos and breakthrough to the Embryonic Breathing would take more time.

It could be said that they were delayed by two powerful Cultivation Techniques.

But once they condensed their holy embryos, their might would be unleashed, and their life force in this Embryonic Breathing Realm would effortlessly break a hundred.

"I can't compare to teachers Zhao Xinglong and Cao Jingjing," Su Jie said, not out of false modesty, but acknowledging his shortcomings.

Taixu Thunder Seal, Taixu Wind Seal.

These two Cultivation Techniques, known to him like thunder, he had only encountered the Eight Extremes Thunder Fist, and from it, he could sense a trace of Taixu Thunder Seal's might.

Lightning could destroy everything and also create everything.

It was both destruction and creation.

Taixu Wind Seal, no doubt, was the same.

"Whether you can match them or not is another matter. Now the question is, will you go to the Supreme Cup?" Zhang Manman's gaze was intense, as Su Jie's participation would greatly increase their chances of winning.

"I'll go," Su Jie nodded. "Are we forming a team?"

"Of course, but we need four people in the team. Besides you, we need two more people," Cao Jingjing said. "Who do you think can?"

"Jos and Chen Tian Yuzi," he replied.

Su Jie thought about it and decided on the remaining two members.

Jos was a definite inclusion, and since Chen Tian Yuzi had joined the inner court, he too was part of their four-person squad.

Though they weren't particularly intimate, they were quite familiar with each other.

"Then it's the two of them,"

Zhang Manman made the final call.

At four in the afternoon, Su Jie's part-time job ended. He greeted the receptionist at the Hypnotist's office and left, then invited Jos and Chen Tian Yuzi to meet at the library on the dining street in the outer court teaching area.

"The Supreme Cup, are we participating?" Jos asked excitedly, "This is a joint competition between the outer and inner courts. I heard that major online media outlets will be competing to cover it and stream it live."

Chen Tian Yuzi was also very surprised, "With our class leader here, we are sure to win."

Su Jie silently shook his head.

It seemed that he was the only one among those present who didn't care much about the Supreme Cup event.

It was like when he used to play games, he just played, never caring about game broadcasters or the competitions, making it a bit difficult for him to fit in with the group.

"Let's go, let's find a spot in the library," proposed Zhang Manman, as Jos, not being a student from the inner court, needed to rely on virtual equipment to access Taixu Illusory Realm.

For them, it was much simpler, having the Ming Lun mark was enough.

Come to think of it, the Taixu Illusory Realm was like a very complete network world, only it was a blend of reality and virtual, turning the false into truth.

It was highly manipulable.

Climbing the library stairs once again, Su Jie re-experienced the mindset he had during his first climb. But today, he was capable of handling it with ease.

Upon entering the library, he showed his student ID to the staff behind the counter and headed into the hall.

Directly in front, there was an open lounge area, surrounded by rows of square tables, each bearing a computer, with administrators seated behind them.

They were responsible for recording and collecting data for people borrowing and returning books.

Su Jie didn't greet them but led Zhang Manman and the others upstairs.

Fortunately, the library had an elevator.

Jos, familiar with the place, said, "Su Jie, the fifth floor is the reading room, it's spacious, even has small conference rooms, perfect for us."

He pressed the button for the elevator and waited for the doors to open.

"Ding-dong!"

The elevator doors opened, the four of them entered, and Zhang Manman pressed the number 5. The elevator doors slowly closed.

"Speaking of it, isn't it inappropriate for us to form a group here in the library?" Chen Tian Yuzi whispered, "It seems disrespectful to the place."

Jos, unconcerned, replied, "We are just going to Taixu Illusory Realm to study, don't overthink it."

"Ding-dong!"

The fifth floor arrived.

The elevator doors opened, revealing a spacious auditorium filled with desks; in the corners, between every two or three desks, stood various colored bookshelves.

However, their primary purpose wasn't to read books this time.

"Not here, too many people," Jos said. "Follow me."

Jos led the way down a nearby corridor to a part made of transparent material, flanked on both sides by transparent glass. Some were pitch-black, while through others, one could see the desks and screens hung on the glass.

"This is the small conference room. Whether you can see inside or not is the criterion to judge if it's occupied," Jos explained.

Clearly, if it was transparent, then it was empty.

However, most of the space here was black, with only two rooms transparent.

It seemed that quite a few people were aware of the Supreme Cup event.

They entered the small conference room and locked the door, causing the transparent glass to switch to a warm, cozy hue.

Clearly, from the outside, the glass room now appeared black.

Ming Lun's technology, even though it was applied in campus life, was already twenty years ahead of the outside world.

Once everyone was seated, Su Jie said, "Now, let's each share our abilities. Currently, my vitality is 7, I know the Eight Extremes Thunder Fist, Chu Tiange, and various other unarmed martial arts and can use my mind to stimulate internal energy to simply interfere with reality; I am also a Hypnotist."

Jos's mouth fell open.

He found it hard to believe. Was the inner court really that impressive?

Su Jie's vitality had already reached 7!

It was astonishing!

In fact, if Jos waited until tomorrow, he would also understand Su Jie's strength since in the afternoon, during the inner court's friendly martial arts event, many people had recorded videos.

Just like Chen Tian Yuzi, who was also there recording a video, though she hadn't yet had the chance to edit and publish it.

"I have entered the initial phase of meditation; my vitality has also increased, now reaching 1.7," said Zhang Manman, "I'm not on your level, but I should also count as a minor expert in various martial arts, not focusing on mastering any in particular. If there is one, it is the Crystal Meditation Skill, mainly using it to visualize and enhance mental power and develop physical potential."

Crystal Visualization Skill can be referred to as meditation.

Easy to begin, difficult to progress.

Ordinary people during their initial learning and compulsory education stages would practice it, but essentially no one continues consistently.

I didn't expect Zhang Manman to still be using the Crystal Visualization Skill!
