Chapter 57: This Is Kind of Addictive

Under normal circumstances, the hot shots would not be praised like this.

This was because the hot shots would be looked down upon by others. At first, the others would tend to suck up to others and ignore the hot shots. In fact, they might even humiliate the hot shots.

However, once the hot shots revealed their strength, people would immediately suck up to them!

It was obvious that Xiao Bei had already won two rounds of first place. These passersby had probably already shifted their attitudes and started sucking up to him.

At this moment, even the sect master and the others beside Lu Xiaoran began to praise him.

“Master Xiao is really a rare genius! Thinking back two days ago, no one took him seriously. However, I didn’t expect that in just two days, he had already become the focus of everyone’s attention.”

“He’s more than a rare genius. Ever since the Great Zhou Empire was established, it seems that there has never been any record of someone like him who can look down on everyone at a young age with his attainments in array formations. Which one of the people who came here wasn’t a top-notch array formation master of their sects? Unfortunately, all of them were defeated by him.”

“What’s even more praiseworthy is that his cultivation is also very powerful. Moreover, he’s decisive in killing. Two days ago, just because someone mocked him, he killed the other party with a single punch! I still remember the impact of that punch even now.”

Lu Xiaoran automatically blocked these bootlickers beside him.

At this moment, he had already begun to investigate the other party’s cultivation.

“Perfected Tenth Level Mountain Sea Realm. Interesting. This brat’s cultivation level is clearly at the Mountain Sea Realm, but he wants to disguise himself as a Spirit Realm expert. Moreover, as a hot shot, he has always been able to fight those at a higher level. His true combat strength should at least be at the tenth level of the Soul Refinement Realm!”

“This is only in terms of cultivation. Other than that, his methods must be endless. Looks like I should think of a way to understand his information.”

Lu Xiaoran secretly decided.

This Xiao Bei was an extremely dangerous person. He had to be on the Avengers Alliance’s kill list.

He had already grown to the tenth level of the Mountain Sea Realm. If he was given a little more time, he would probably grow to the tenth level of the Soul Refinement Realm. By the time he reached the tenth level of the Void Reversion Realm, coupled with his combat characteristics and the gradually increasing number of techniques, even he would probably be helpless against him.

However, before investigating him carefully, Lu Xiaoran would not attack him.

As if sensing that he was being stared at, Xiao Bei also swept his gaze over.

His gaze met Lu Xiaoran’s.

At that moment, a golden electric arc flashed in his pupils.

“Trash at the third level of the Spirit Realm?”

Then, he no longer looked at Lu Xiaoran.

It was as if a mere third level Spirit Realm trash was not worthy of his attention.

Lu Xiaoran rubbed his eyebrows speechlessly in the face of this arrogance.

As expected of a hot shot, his posturing was indeed perfect. The other party had only taken a look at him and then completely ignored him. It was as if he was just a small character.

However, in fact, the other party had just used an extremely powerful eye technique and still failed to see through Lu Xiaoran’s disguise.

This was also because he was a hot shot. If it were anyone else, they might have long been smashed apart by a punch.

Lu Xiaoran did not care either.

For a hot shot like the other party, not only did he have endless means, but he was also very popular.

If Lu Xiaoran made a move to suppress him now, his strength would probably be enough.

However, that would expose his secret. At the same time, some Grand Elder of the Black Tortoise True Sect might run out and say that the other party was his disciple before Lu Xiaoran could kill the other party.

Then, he would fight a huge battle with him. The two sides would fight to a draw. In the end, Xiao Bei would also challenge him in front of the entire world.

Xiao Bei would probably challenge him to a fight in three to five years. If Lu Xiaoran was not a transmigrator, his IQ would inexplicably decrease and he would agree to it.

With this agreement, he was doomed. He could not attack Xiao Bei. He was also furious and could only send his trusted subordinates to help Xiao Bei grow stronger.

In the end, when Xiao Bei matured successfully, Xiao Bei would come and unleash a peerless attack on him.

Although he did not understand why those idiotic supporting roles always had to support a pretentious and arrogant main character who always looked down on everyone, there was nothing he could do about it.

At this moment, the array masters of the various sects had already gradually begun to enter the competition ground.

Lu Xiaoran was no exception.

His attention was no longer on Xiao Bei.

Xiao Bei was not a god. Lu Xiaoran would not keep an eye on him from the beginning to the end.

His divine sense had already projected onto the scene.

This scene made an elder on the high platform with his eyes closed suddenly open. His cultivation was already at the first level of the Essence Realm, so he was in charge of guarding the place.

However, Lu Xiaoran’s cultivation was above his. Even though he sensed that it seemed like someone was releasing their divine sense, he was unable to deduce who it was.

Was it the genius from Jiangbei?

He turned his gaze to Xiao Bei. He knew that Xiao Bei was hiding something. After all, the difference in their cultivation levels was huge, and Xiao Bei could not easily hide it from him.

However, although he was unable to completely see through Xiao Bei, he more or less knew that this divine sense was definitely not Xiao Bei’s.

He knew the other party did not have the strength.

In the end, he could only shake his head and continue to close his eyes to rest.

The main examiner of the Black Tortoise True Sect also began to announce the start of the competition.

“On the first day, we compete in the basic array formation, the Spirit Gathering Formation!”

“On the second day, we competed in the simplest illusion formation.”

“Today, we’re competing in the defensive array formation.”

“Next, the competition begins.”

The array masters began to set up the array formation. Xiao Bei took a deep breath and said,

“Master, back then, you were forced to die. Even if Bei’er became a Martial Monarch Realm expert and killed all of your enemies, I was still unable to revive you. However, Bei’er was lucky enough to live another life. This time, Bei’er will win the first place in this array formation competition and enter the Black Tortoise True Sect. At that time, I’ll propose to Master.”

“In this life, Bei’er will protect you! No one will dare to harm you again!”

Lu Xiaoran could not help but scoff when he heard these words. What was he pretending to be innocent for? In Jiang City, Xiao Bei had already stolen his disciple’s fiancée, so why was he bringing this up now? He was actually trying to start a harem, but he still said that he would protect her and not harm her. Wasn’t this disgusting? If you really like your master, you can just focus on her and marry her. Why did you have to provoke other women? Indeed, the hot shots were all extremely arrogant and stupid.

Moreover, the other party had the ability to reduce the intelligence of those around him. His master would probably be coaxed to be his concubine sooner or later.

      Exactly.
      Like, if you truly loved someone, there is no way you would hurt them by forcefully creating a harem. Instead, you might even go as far as to kill those who are trying to get on with you despite you already having found your beloved.

        Exactly, I mean there is no harm on liking someone BUT the girls should know their place and not get in the way of mc and fmcs love story.
        But with their dead IQ, doing that is basically next to impossible,, AND mc is even more dumb because he f#cking accepts them like it's the f#cking right thing to do, I mean wtf? U could just repay them when you become the king of the world.

        So in conclusion, the idea of having lots of lovers is dumb because you're just hurting the person u loved first, I mean WHICH girl would want to share their man with a random bitch

          Exactly. I fully agree.
          Nobody with a functioning brain would ever truly accept to share the one they love with an outsider, even if that outsider is their lifelong best friend.
          Ultimately, I firmly believe that women are just like men in this matter.
          Men would never share the woman they love with another man. It's totally impossible.

          Of course, I also understand that brilliance naturally attracts others.
          This is the fundamental rule. Beautiful women are naturally only attracted to handsome and outstanding men. But for harmony to exist, the woman must be equally outstanding, otherwise there'll be an imbalance.

      You guys are delusional to compare our morals to fantasy world's moral. How are you hurting someone's feeling by forcing them into a harem if a harem is norm in their world? Seriously you people needs help....

      In a dog eat dog world, strength is everything. Having many wives/husband, shows not only your strength but also your charisma. You people need to stop comparing real life with fictions. Smh

      I have no qualms about you guy's dislike on Harem but don't justify that harem isn't good just because you don't like it 🤦‍♂️

        The person who needs help is you. That the fantasy world justifies that the harem is good doesn't mean that we as readers like it.

        In the most shitty xianxia worlds it is not as if all the powerful had a harem, thats mean that, women would also have their harem right? but no, only the main character has them, nobody else only the villains sometimes only for the sake of the main character to take them away, no
        it is a world where the harem is the norm, it is a world where the norm is created by the protagonist (aka author) for his fantasy of power of him and his readers

        It is much worse when the protagonist is a isekai-type xianxia, he is supposed to have our morals but he still does such morbidities, at least when he is a native of the world, we can accept his attitud a little, but dont make the things more acceptable for the reader

          No you are the one that needs help. Your gay ass can't accept male can have a harem in a harem novel that specifically aim for a male audience. If you want a female that has her own harem read a novel about it. There's a lot about it. Or your gay ass can just read BL. Seriously you hate harem because it only has men that have harem while females don't? You needed help more than I thought.

          If you think that isekai-type is worse because the MC lost his Earth's morality then you are dumb. Morality is the easiest thing to throw when you are in a dog eat dog world. Do you think your morality of giving the villain to the police will work on a god damn xianxia world? You are f#cking idiot it makes me sick.

          This is why I hate non-harem readers. They think they know shit but in fact, they don't because they don't even bother reading it. Harem is good because it is fiction. Only a fiction. Your gay ass can't understand it because you want to apply everything you read in real life when in fact it doesn't have to. Fiction is fiction because it isn't real.

            Wow so much hate (it seems like a youtube comment of the type, who is stronger goku or naruto?) I will not talk much since, reading your comment it does not seem that you would change your mind.

            It was just to clarify something, none of my previous comment was to insult, or something similar, it was totally serious, if you really think that it is wrong that there are people who do not like the harem (harem or reverse harem), and you insult anyone who doesn't have the same tastes as you then you should better organize your thoughts.

            And since you insulted me by calling me gay, I'll insult you too..... bitch (I'm not good at insulting people and English is not my native language)

              First, I never insulted someone because they doesn't have the same taste as me. Second, I know there is people who doesnt like harem and reverse-harem.

              My point is, the dislike on the genre just because "it doesn't make sense in real life" is an idiotic take. And that's it. As for my insult. Yeah it's for you and some above the comment section, not because you and them hate harem but because the reason you hate harem. I would've agreed if you said along the lines "the female characters are bland, etc etc" but to say something about morals in a fictions. That's where I know that's insult worthy.

                Are you seriously telling me that what bothers you is that we put morality in fiction? What are you talking about? we always put our morals in the things we read or see, it is literally the core of fiction in getting into morally difficult situations but that we accept it does not mean that we like it, for example, a fictional world where children must kill their parents when they grow up, morally it is not correct nor do I like it, but we understand, the same with the harem we understand it but neither you nor anyone will tell me that it is something that I find beautiful or necessary, unless it is the central part of the plot, But if it isn't, I wouldn't like it. I'm sorry.

                The worst thing is that I tried many times to try to like them, since most of the xianxia have it. But whenever they get to those parts of the romance it always takes me out of the experience.

                PS: To clarify, it's not bad or anything like that that you like the harem, we all have our preferences.

                  I never said we never have to put are morals in the story. What I said is that, we can't force our moral to a story that has it own morality. You never understood what I meant. I couldn't careless what your preference is, whenever it is BL or something. I would never give shit on that. What my point is, Xianxia novels have the morals of having 1 man many women as a norm, yet you people can't understand it. You hate harem because it is showing male dominance or patriarchy. That's where the problem is. You don't understand it, that's why you need help. You are forcing your morality on a story that has its own world and rules, where your morals isn't applicable.

                  As I said, you have your own preference, I don't care. I'm just pointing out that your reason to hate on harem is dumb. I would've agreed if you said something like "the character is bland, the story is not good, the female act like a card board" which is acceptable. And again, if you can't understand that, you need massive help.

                  Uff I'm tired, this is my last message, I won't talk about this anymore and less with people like you, who maybe watch too much shit for their own good. I won't even correct you about assuming that I dislike the harem because it shows "male dominance" and shit, even if it did, why would it be silly? just because you want to jerk off to your f#cking harem-fantasies doesn't mean we all like it.

                  And I never said that harems are bad because the female characters were soft or without personality etc... that wouldn't be a harem problem, it would be the author's not to develop good characters.

                  This is all I shouldn't have answered your messages it was a total waste of time, I should have imagined it when you commented right on a novel that opposes these genres. It's like commenting "The corona-virus is a lie created by the media" in a youtube video about the care that must be taken against the corona-virus

                  Lmao see the problem with you? You assume people read harem to jack off that's why I said you need help. It's like saying "you read mystery-murder novels so you can murder someone" that's a f#cking braindead comment. And I never assume you don't like harem because you said it yourself. And again, you never understand what I meant. And your comparison to a corona doesn't make any sense. No wonder you can't seems to understand what I'm trying to say. My guy, you need help.

                  You might want to re-read what my original comment is, and to what I'm commenting about. And see your very first reply to it. You'll understand how brain dead you sounds like. All my point is about morality. Hope you understand now.

                  dude, good one welldone

                  These days feminism is so bad they try to insert it everywhere. I would recommend the youtube channel of Jordan Peterson to anyone; it has helped me a lot and may help the person above.
                  For those who are talking about reality if humans were cut from exactly the same cloth as other mammals, a faithful spouse would be an unusual phenomenon. Only 3% to 5% of the roughly 5,000 species of mammals (including humans) are known to form lifelong, monogamous bonds, with loyal superstars including beavers, wolves and some bats. So even if we take humans from some imaginary reality there is more probability of humans not being Monogamous.

                  Bro why are trying to waste your brain cells on making him understand. If he doesn't like harem novels then why does he bother to read them. He should know that some people, me included, read fiction and fantasy to get away from reality for a while as we enjoy a world where our imaginations, sense of fun and adventure are given an opportunity to be witnessed and satisfied.

                  So why bother to mix reality social morals with this. if he doesn't like it he should bloody keep it in is heart instead of blabbering it out here
