"Use your skill! Jump on my head, third skill... yes, that's it."
"Don't mess with that skill, just press whatever else you want, we can end this in one go."
Watching the word 'Victory' appear in large letters on the phone screen.
Xu Mo finally let out a sigh of relief.
A sweet girl's voice came through.
"Brother Mo, I don't want to play anymore, this game is too hard."
"Oh come on, I'm the one having a hard time here! I did 56% of the team's damage... honestly, I don't want to play anymore either." Xu Mo sighed deeply.
Playing a few rounds of the mobile game with a girl was exhausting.
"Brother Mo, am I really stupid? I can't even do this simple thing right."
The girl's anxious voice came through.
Xu Mo: "It's not that you're not suited for it, it has nothing to do with intelligence. If you were stupid, what would your classmates who score lower than you think?"
"By the way, Yuqi, are you really not going to MIT? I'll cover everything - tuition, food, housing, everything. After graduation, you can work at my company or anywhere else you want."
Song Yuqi: "I've already submitted my college application. I received my acceptance letter from Fudan University in Magic City yesterday."
Xu Mo: "If you want to stay in China, why choose Magic City? What a waste! With your grades, getting into Tsinghua or Peking University would be a breeze. How about this - I know some people who can help you change your application. With your grades, even the professors at Tsinghua and Peking won't say anything."
Song Yuqi said with a giggle: "Brother Mo, don't go to all that trouble. I chose to study in Magic City partly because my brother has returned to China and is working there now."
Xu Mo suddenly understood.
Xiao Shi should really learn from this!
This is what a normal sibling relationship should be like.
Unlike them, who start fighting as soon as they see each other, even getting into physical altercations.
What kind of sibling relationship is that?
Fake siblings?
"When you get to Magic City, remember to call me. I'll take you to Disney for a few days like I promised before your college entrance exam."
"Okay, Brother Mo. I have something to do now, so I'll go offline."
"Sure, go ahead."
In Jiang City, in an old, run-down residential complex.
A pretty, lively girl with a ponytail was packing her suitcase.
On the table lay a university acceptance letter.
And two phones.
One was the latest Huawei model that Xu Mo had given her, the other was an older phone.
The screen was covered in spider web-like cracks.
The girl hadn't chosen to throw it away.
Because it was the first phone her mother had bought her.
She couldn't play games on it anymore, at most she could log into QQ to chat or make calls and send messages.
Sometimes there would be obvious lag during QQ chats.
But this phone held special meaning for the girl.
It was through this phone that she had met Xu Mo.
When the mobile game was first released, it didn't require such high specifications to run.
Almost everyone at school was playing it.
Not playing the game felt like being out of place.
So she downloaded it, but due to her phone's limitations, the game ran terribly slow.
And that's how she coincidentally met Xu Mo in the game.
She was in middle school then, while Xu Mo was in university.
They went from gaming together to adding each other on QQ.
Later, when Xu Mo learned about the girl's poor family circumstances, he offered to sponsor her!
Nothing comes free, but the girl refused without even thinking about it!
Xu Mo insisted on sponsoring her because of her good grades, saying she could pay him back whenever she was able to in the future.
The girl accepted.
From then on, she studied even harder, got into a key high school, and consistently maintained a position in the top three of her school.
If not first, then second.
Even at her worst performance, she still ranked third in the school.
"Brother Mo is such an idiot, he doesn't understand girls' hearts at all."
Song Yuqi puffed her cheeks.
She dressed very simply, from clothes to shoes, everything she wore didn't cost more than 200 yuan in total.
But she had an indescribable beauty about her.
It was a kind of pure beauty untainted by worldliness.
Her parents were divorced.
When she was very young, her father had taken her brother abroad.
Since she could remember, young Song Yuqi had lived alone with her mother.
She attended middle school in a small county town, and even though Song Yuqi was top of her grade, the scholarship was only a pitiful few hundred yuan.
Song's mother worked so hard she ended up in the hospital from exhaustion.
At that time, Song Yuqi felt completely helpless.
She thought about dropping out to help her mother with work and share the family burden.
But her mother absolutely refused, and her future seemed completely dark.
It was that year when Xu Mo accidentally entered her life, like a ray of sunshine illuminating her gloomy existence.
With Xu Mo's sponsorship, she no longer had to worry about her basic needs.
She got into the city's No. 1 High School, won numerous scholarships during her high school years, and the school waived her tuition, food, and boarding fees.
Life noticeably improved for Song Yuqi and her mother.
Time flew by like a shuttle.
For Xu Mo, it might have been just a small gesture.
But for Song Yuqi's family, it was a life-saving grace.
"Yuqi, come out for dinner." Song's mother's voice came from outside the door.
Song Yuqi snapped back from her thoughts and responded, "Coming!"
The door opened.
Outside stood a middle-aged woman who bore some resemblance to Song Yuqi.
Though only around forty years old,
She looked like she was in her fifties.
The living room was very small, with only an old wooden table and two stools for furniture.
Song's mother put a piece of meat on her daughter's plate, "Yuqi, when you go to Magic City and see your brother, remember to take some photos to send back. Best if you can bring him back during the winter break for New Year's, mom misses him too."
Song Yuqi nodded, "Don't worry, mom. When I see brother, I'll have him video call you on WeChat. I taught you how to answer and use those features last time."
Song's mother was still worried, "Remember to call mom every night too."
Song Yuqi smiled, "Okay, mom, eat now before the food gets cold."
Song's mother gave her daughter a side glance, but somehow felt uneasy in her heart, though she couldn't quite put her finger on what felt strange.
She could only hope that her daughter's journey to study in Magic City would go smoothly.
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces. Live Comments: [Doesn't anyone find this mysterious coffin guy creepy? He can summon indescribable grey misty hands.] [Is this guy a hero or a villain? What kind of onion became a spirit?] [By the way, does anyone know who's in the coffin? Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe. "Would you like to dance as well?"
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
