Chapter 2: Tang San, You’re Such a Scoundrel!
According to the system rules, I can simulate once every hour.
And before starting, I’m allowed to change to a new “proposition.”
Huo Yuhao pondered, realizing that “breaking free from Tang San’s control” was indeed difficult to achieve overnight; an SSS-rank difficulty was no joke.
Instead of failing and wasting an opportunity, it was better to think simpler. If he couldn't deal with Tang San for now, he would start with Wang Dong’er, hoping to get a few useful talents. People can’t be unlucky forever, right?
“System, change the proposition.”
“For the next simulation, I will live separately from Wang Dong’er.”
“Although I can’t achieve the goal of breaking free from Tang San in one go, his biggest chess piece is his own daughter.”
“If Wang Dong’er and I don’t live together at a young age, our relationship development will definitely slow down. Maybe there’s a chance to disrupt his plan, or at least delay it. It’s worth a try!”
No sooner said than done, Huo Yuhao waited quietly.
An hour passed, and he immediately changed to the new proposition.
It should be easy to live separately from Wang Dong’er, right? Logically, applying to the school should be enough?
Of course, changing dorms was not the ultimate goal. Doing so would definitely still alert Tang San. He wondered what reaction the other party would have.
【Proposition confirmed, difficulty rating A】
【Talent refresh probability: Mythical 0%, Legendary 1%, Epic 4%, Rare 25%, Common 70%】
【Current available talents: Debater (Rare), Strongman (Rare), Scrooge (Common)】
【Debater: You possess excellent linguistic talent. Even in the dog-eat-dog Douluo Continent, eloquence often plays a role】
【Strongman: You have great strength. Although this enhancement cannot be applied to your martial soul, hidden weapons and various Tang Sect techniques can all benefit】
【Scrooge: Stingy people are not well-liked. If you want someone to dislike you, this talent will grant your wish】
...As expected, the difficulty decreased.
But surprisingly, it didn’t drop by much.
It was just an attempt to live separately from Wang Dong’er, yet it was rated A-class. If it wasn’t a misjudgment, it meant that according to the system’s analysis, Tang San would likely still interfere.
Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao’s expression was a bit grim. However, the proposition had already been set, so he could only try again. If he could deduce Tang San’s methods and psychology from this, then even if he failed, it wouldn’t be without gain.
“The talent refresh rate… also decreased, huh.”
“It seems that at least S-rank, or even SSS-rank difficulty, is needed to have a chance at getting the highest Mythical talent.”
“But it’s good, much better than last time. Two rare and one common. Since my goal is to change rooms, eloquence should be very important, right?”
“As for talents that enhance combat power, like Strongman, they’re not very important at the moment. My inherent aptitude and progress speed are completely sufficient.”
Clearly, Huo Yuhao’s thinking was very clear.
He made a decisive choice and signaled the system to begin.
In the depths of his consciousness, the data simulated an hour ago suddenly dissipated before his eyes, and new feedback appeared.
【Selection complete】
【Generating simulated life】
【Time: Shrek Academy enrollment day; Location: Shrek Academy freshman dorms】
【Day 1: Knowing what awaited you, before meeting Wang Dong’er, you submitted an application to the academy to change dorms. Although the request was somewhat strange, your excellent eloquence, like that of a debater, still won you the opportunity. You did not meet Wang Dong’er】
【Day 2: You cultivated diligently in your dorm, quietly waiting for the official start of school】
【Day 3: You and Wang Dong’er met in class. By actively avoiding her, no accidents occurred】
【Day 4: Just as you thought that living separately from Wang Dong’er had become a reality and the future was about to be twisted, Wang Dong’er unexpectedly came to your door, initiating conversation with a reluctant expression】
【Day 5: After a preliminary probe yesterday, Tang San secretly used his authority to also change Wang Dong’er’s dorm. You once again lived under the same roof. To avoid Tang San discovering your identity as a transmigrator, you reluctantly accepted reality】
【You were corrected back to the predetermined path by Tang San’s use of privilege. The future did not change… Simulated life ended. This “proposition” failed, and no rewards can be obtained】
...I only knew Tang San was a scoundrel before, but I never expected him to be such a scoundrel!
Just changing a dorm, and he had to use his God King identity?
No wonder the system rated it A. It seemed that no matter what he did, that guy would shamelessly obstruct him.
Huo Yuhao quickly realized that if he only twisted developments in subtle ways, the result would either be exposing his identity as a transmigrator or returning empty-handed.
If he couldn’t solve this problem, any further attempts would be futile. Even successful ones would fail because of this. He had to find a way, or perhaps even do the opposite?
“Hmph, so you like giving away your daughter, do you?”
“If you’re going to give her away, just be direct. Why bother with restrictions?”
“Since I can’t get rid of Wang Dong’er, I might as well go all in and let everything come more intensely!”
A moment later, a bright light flashed in Huo Yuhao’s eyes.
He couldn't escape for now, but he could at least annoy Tang San.
Aren’t you using your daughter to put a leash on me? Then I’ll vigorously pursue your daughter!
I’ll pursue her until she can’t live without me, until she’s completely devoted to me. Then, perhaps, I can use Wang Dong’er and Xiao Wu to cause trouble in Tang Gou’s backyard.
Furthermore, from another perspective, the plan to overthrow the God Realm was closely related to many aspects, and timing was crucial. Being too slow wouldn’t work, and being too fast wouldn’t work either.
Since he couldn’t delay for now, he might as well change his approach and “help” him accelerate the development, completely disrupting his opponent’s plan.
For example, Tang San believed that Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong’er’s feelings would only be solidified at the Ask the Heart Valley. But what if her true gender was exposed and she fell madly in love with me before even leaving Shrek Academy? That would definitely cause a distortion.
And in the God Realm, if he could become a god faster, it would definitely attract the attention of Tang San and the God of Destruction. At that time, the great calamity of the God Realm would be far from erupting, and by secretly fanning the flames, he would definitely be able to disrupt the plan!
The more he thought about it, the more Huo Yuhao felt the opportunity was significant.
Anyway, it was just a simulation, so any approach could be tried.
Without wasting too much time, once the one-hour cooldown ended, he immediately changed the proposition again.
“System, this time, let’s try to accelerate the development of my relationship with Wang Dong’er!”
“As long as my identity isn’t exposed by Tang San, I’ll make her fall for me to the maximum extent.”
“At that time, facing the obstruction of the God King’s restrictions, I probably wouldn’t even need to say anything before Wang Dong’er would become dissatisfied. Which woman in love wouldn’t want to be more intimate with her lover?”
Thinking this, Huo Yuhao regained his spirits.
Looking at the new talent options, his eyes even lit up slightly.
Indeed, a person can’t be unlucky forever. Didn’t he just talk about pursuing Wang Dong’er, and a suitable talent appeared!
“Epic-rank talent, Master of Seduction?”
“Excellent, you’re the one!”
“I’ll go along with Tang San’s wishes and get his daughter. He wouldn’t obstruct me again, would he?”
