Seeing this, Su Xing was stunned.
Su Nianan was his sister. The two had grown up together, how could she suddenly be dead?
With doubt in his heart, Su Xing continued to read.
"Your parents told you that Su Nianan died during a dungeon level-up session."
"You were heartbroken, drinking away your sorrows and living in a daze each day."
"Your good friend Yu Yan found you and expressed his regret over your sister's death."
"He comforted you and pulled you out of your grief."
"He gave you a large sum of money, which you invested in a profession user equipment shop."
"You quickly made a fortune and became a well-known second-hand equipment dealer in Kyoto."
"Three years later, a piece of tragic news hit you, your good friend Yu Yan also died."
Su Xing fell silent upon reading this.
Yu Yan was his college roommate, also his best brother in college.
Moreover, Yu Yan was also a hidden profession user, considered a prodigy in Kyoto Profession University. How could he just die like that?
"You attended Yu Yan's funeral."
"At the funeral, you learned that Yu Yan died during a dungeon session."
"From your classmates, you learned that over the years, most of your peers had died in dungeons."
"You were shocked. What kind of dungeon could have killed hundreds of powerful profession users?"
"But they were unwilling to disclose more."
"A sense of crisis erupted within you like never before. You decided to focus on training."
"You spent a year reaching the ninth level of Body Refinement."
"You continued training, but your cultivation level made slow progress."
"Helplessly, you shifted your focus to business."
"A sudden market fluctuation caused the price of recovery potions to skyrocket, while your equipment went unsold."
"You went bankrupt. By then, you were already thirty-two years old, with your youthful ambitions long gone."
"You took your 30 million savings and aimed to retire in your hometown."
"Four years later, you became a well-known wealthy man in the village."
"A matchmaker from the village wanted to introduce Ru Hua, a girl from the village head's family, to you."
"Taking a look at Ru Hua's face, you politely declined."
"You thought the days would just pass peacefully."
"One day, while lounging in the courtyard, you looked up and saw a colossal beast covering the sky."
"For a moment, you saw several golden figures flying towards the beast, trying to attack it."
"The beast opened its mouth and swallowed the entire Great Xia Country."
"You died at the age of thirty-six!"
"This simulation ends!"
"First simulation reward can be claimed for free. You can choose one of the following rewards: Spiritual Root Holder (Talent), Ninth Level of Body Refinement (Cultivation Level)."
Looking at the simulated results in front of him, Su Xing fell into deep thought.
Fifteen years later, a powerful demonic beast descended upon the real world and swallowed the entire Great Xia Country!
Su Xing had never heard of such a powerful demonic beast before.
It seemed that the whole Human Race currently had no profession user capable of resisting it.
Thinking of this, Su Xing let out a bitter laugh:
"So fifteen years later is the end of the world... Sigh, who could have thought that after resisting for over a thousand years, the Human Race would still be destroyed by the Demon Race."
Su Xing sighed but then shook his head.
"What happens fifteen years from now, who knows... Better to focus on the present!"
Su Xing looked at the two available rewards and felt conflicted.
Spiritual Root Holder talent or Ninth Level of Body Refinement cultivation, which should he choose?
After some hesitation, Su Xing made up his mind and said:
"I choose Spiritual Root Holder!"
Meanwhile, it seemed an invisible change happened to Su Xing's body, making his five senses sharper.
"So this is what it feels like to have a Spiritual Root?"
Su Xing suddenly sensed something and took a sneaky look below.
Hiss~
Unexpectedly, having a unique talent also came with such a perk?
Su Xing was overjoyed.
The reason he chose the Spiritual Root was naturally because this talent was randomly obtained, and his desire to cultivate was too strong to pass up such a talent.
As for the Ninth Level of Body Refinement, while it was good for Su Xing at the moment, he knew he could achieve it again through repeated simulations in the simulator.
After choosing the talent, Su Xing wanted to continue simulating but received a system prompt.
"Ding, this simulation consumed 200 points of energy. Current simulated energy is 0. Simulation cooling down. Please recharge energy to simulate again in a week."
Only then did Su Xing remember that each simulation required energy, and there was also a one-week cooldown period.
The cooling period could be dealt with by waiting a week.
But how to obtain this energy?
"Ding, this simulator can absorb any energy-containing substances and convert them into simulation energy!"
Hearing this, Su Xing's heart moved, and he quickly took out over a dozen pieces of white equipment.
"Absorb!"
"Detected white equipment, Sharp Dagger. Successfully absorbed, gained 5 points of energy."
"Detected white equipment, Little Princess's Gloves. Successfully absorbed, gained 8 points of energy."
"Detected white equipment..."
"..."
"Simulator energy level: 103 points."
Su Xing saw the prompt and his face darkened.
Over a dozen pieces of white equipment gave as much as 9 points of energy, as little as only 2 points of energy.
Yet, the simulator's energy level only recovered to 103 points, still nearly halfway to 200 points!
"Damn, a piece of white equipment costs at least 1,000 Great Xia Coins, and this method just cost me tens of thousands?"
Su Xing felt a pang in his heart but still took out more than a dozen pieces of equipment to recharge up to 205 points of energy.
"Ugh, I've almost completely exhausted the equipment I've collected over the past three years. If I recharge again, I'll have to buy with money!"
Su Xing sighed. Fortunately, over the past three years, he frequently ventured into dungeons to earn money, so he had hundreds of thousands in savings.
"Better to buy more white equipment and recharge it into energy!"
Su Xing took out his phone and spent several hours.
He bought hundreds of pieces of white equipment on the profession user's online trading platform and recharged them all into energy.
"Simulator energy level: 713 points."
Seeing the energy level displayed on the simulator, Su Xing felt a sense of contentment.
"Now I just have to wait for a week!"
Knock, knock, knock!
Just then, a plump figure walked into the dorm.
"Old Su, there are six freshmen girls waiting for you outside the dorm... One of them is a total knockout! Heh, you sure know how to play the game!"
The speaker was none other than Yu Yan, nicknamed Fatty Yu, a hidden profession user of the Fire System, known as the Explosive Flame Mage!
Su Xing knew the freshmen girls came looking for him to help with leveling, so he looked at Fatty Yu with a complicated gaze.
"Got it, they're here for some dungeon leveling help! I'll be back tonight. Save me some dinner!"
Su Xing patted Fatty Yu on the shoulder and walked out of the dorm building.
At the dorm entrance, Su Xing saw six brightly dressed freshmen girls.
Su Xing said straightforwardly:
"You all know the rules, right? For this dungeon run, it's 2,000 each, and any equipment or items we get belong to me!"
The freshmen girls nodded repeatedly, except for one girl with delicate features dressed simply who hesitated.
Su Xing noticed but did not say anything, just added:
"Alright, follow me!"
Soon, they reached a dungeon outside the city called "Ten Mile Slope."
This dungeon always spawned a type of demonic beast called "Wild Boar Spirit."
Their level ranged from Bronze 5 to 10, providing good experience for newly turned profession users but proving challenging.
But for Su Xing, who was at the sixth level of Body Refinement, it was like taking candy from a baby.
After an hour, the freshmen girls all leveled up.
Su Xing received his payment of ten thousand and then looked at the girl who still hadn't produced the money and looked hesitant.
"Um, senior... I don't have enough money right now, can I..."
