"Xu, you wastrel from a third-rate family, dare to flirt with the eldest daughter of the Huo family! Today, I Jun Tianchou will cripple your martial arts, sever your nine meridians, and make you a useless cripple forever..."

"Waste! I, Yin Susu, was wrong about you! From now on, you are no longer my husband, and my Yin family has nothing to do with your Xu family anymore…"

"Hey, isn't this Xu Come to borrow thirty taels from me Bah! You think you're still the big boss With no money and no power, who would want to hang out with you, a nobody..."

Wow!

With a pale face, Xu awoke from his nightmare.

"Awake, awake! You poor thing, you almost missed the door test."

Several people surrounded Xu, chattering away.

Taken aback by the completely unfamiliar surroundings, Xu was dumbfounded:

"Damn it, did I just time travel"

Memories, one after another, surge into my mind.

Originally, he was the head of the family. He never worried about food and clothing, and his cultivation talent was also decent.

As long as he inherits his father's position as head of the family, his future will be bright.

Little did he know that fate had other plans. As it turned out, Xu Lao's concubine, Song, had someone drug him, causing him to become infatuated and try to seduce Huo Nishan, the eldest daughter of the powerful Huo family, leading to a grave mistake.

Not only was he demoted and stripped of his position, but his family was also implicated, suffering immense losses.

He became a sinner in his own home, and not only was he stripped of the chieftain's position.

Even the eldest daughter of the Yin family, who was originally betrothed through marriage, tore up the engagement.

Once friends, now strangers. Upon seeing each other, one would wish to avoid the other as much as possible.

...while the Song clan, who orchestrated this plot, profited the most:

Not only did his own son Fei replace Xu, the legitimate eldest son, as the new leader of the clan.

The Song family behind Song also took advantage of this opportunity to extract a large amount of benefits from their home.

Poor Xu, after being seriously injured, was thrown into the corner and ignored. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The weak-willed mother, unaware of the struggle for power, pleaded with everyone. After much effort, she finally managed to heal her son's wounds. From then on, Xu changed his ways and was no longer a wastrel.

He was fortunate enough to receive an opportunity to join the Lingyun Sect.

And today is the day of the Lingyun Sect's entrance exam.

Unfortunately, Xu is too weak; his previous injuries haven't fully recovered.

Furthermore, his strength was too great, and today when he climbed to Lingyun Sect, his old injury flared up again, and he died tragically.

From Earth, a kindred spirit named Xu, happened to travel through time.

"Haha, since it's here, let it be. Don't worry about leaving, former you. Just leave it to me to take care of Mother."

Those who scheme against you, I will make them pay the price.

I will beat the faces of those who ridicule you, one by one.

Those who took things from me, I'll make them return every penny!

The Song family, mother and son, thought they were too clever, figuring that the young master wouldn't be able to turn things around

Humph.

I'll let you know, my good sir "thick-faced and black-hearted young master" is not a nickname I earned for nothing.

Through information gleaned from memory, Xu arrived at the conclusion:

This apprenticeship opportunity is definitely a turning point in fate!

If they could add Lingyun Sect, the status of the mother and son at home would be greatly improved.

They will no longer be bullied and their lives will change drastically.

Even, Xu still has a chance to recover his cultivation and fight against Fei, vying for the position of chief!

So, this time he must definitely add Lingyun Sect!

This imperial examination is really tough this time, over fifty people competing for the top five spots! The competition is fierce!

But the rewards are also quite generous. It is said that those who are accepted can receive a Starry Dan, and the top three will receive even more substantial prizes!

A passerby said.

"Starlight Pill A top-grade healing elixir"

His eyes lit up:

"If I could get a Star Essence Pill, I could completely heal my severed meridian injuries and make up for the deficiency in my vital energy!"

"But——only the top five out of fifty Damn! This competition is fierce, almost as intense as a civil service exam on Earth!"

Xu is a little worried.

Although he has now returned to the level of a third-rank martial artist, his meridians were severely injured, and his vitality is much lower than that of others at the same level.

Xue also tried to make up for it, but Ben didn't have enough resources.

You know, other martial artists' cultivation all involves consuming huge amounts of various medicinal herbs.

Ke Xu is at home, beaten by Song's mother and son. His status is even lower than that of a servant, where could he get the resources to consume

But the most fatal point is:

Up to now, I've only practiced one set of Opening Mountain Palms, which is the lowest level of martial arts.

He was more than twice as far behind those who could casually browse through multiple sets of intermediate martial arts, even advanced ones.

Alas, when I was the chieftain, I didn't cherish all kinds of martial arts.

Now, he has met such an end. Alas! How regretful it is that he was so misguided in the past.

"At least everything can still be made up for! I'll plan carefully and will definitely increase the influence of Lingyun Sect!"

As for two lifetimes as a human, Xu considered matters deeply and was clearly more mature than people of the same age.

He knew very well that this was a world harsher and more stratified than Earth.

The Continent of Vast Horizons, where martial prowess reigns supreme.

Humans have three souls and seven spirits, each corresponding to a divine meridian in the world, known as the "Ten Divine Meridians".

Only a select few can possess high mental prowess, connect with the primordial energy of heaven and earth, and become warriors.

Among warriors, only one in ten thousand has the ability to refine heaven and earth's vital energy, cultivating the legendary "soul" and becoming the supreme "Soul Master".

A soul master, with vast magical powers and boundless abilities.

He can soar through the air, sever rivers with a single hand, transform into giants, and conquer seas and mountains… and many other supernatural abilities are just child’s play to him.

... More talented soul masters could break through the shackles of heaven and earth, connecting to the "Celestial Divine Meridian," awakening the legendary "Worldly God"...

Lingyunzong is one of the Soul Sect gates.

"Haha, Xu, you actually passed the imperial examination"

A jarring sound cut through Xu's train of thought.

"East!"

Xu Qiang held back a punch and went up to it.

"Hey, you think just because you're here you can pass the imperial examination Let me tell you, with your abilities, this is as far as you'll get!"

A playful expression hung on Dongsuo's broad face.

On the east side, there still stood a man with an arrogant face.

"Entering the palace exam, you must have exerted all your effort, haven't you"

Xù's eyes instantly turned cold as ice.

"Fly! It won't be long before you and your son pay the price!"

This year, it was the sworn enemy who stole A-Xu's position as clan leader:

Fly!

His mother, she was the vicious Song.

Xu Zhan clenched his fists, and a surge of violent energy welled up uncontrollably.

I wish I could shatter it into ten thousand pieces!

"Hmph, it seems you're still not giving up Trash, destined to be trash, can only lie in the mud."

"Fēi gave a wry smile,"

"You don't believe me, this time in the palace exam, your Xu will definitely fail!"

My heart skipped a beat.

This bastard, is he going to play some tricks during the final exam

Or, did he bribe the elder in charge of the palace examination

Xueyi's heart sank.

"Alas! This palace examination is really tough this time, with five elders appearing together. I'm afraid…"

I'm not very confident, I don't think it will be easy to enter the Lingyun Sect!

After completing the palace examination, the two men chatted as they walked out the door.

Xu's breathing was heavy with a sense of foreboding.

"Something's wrong! The Palace Examination usually only had three examiners, but today there are five!"

"With so many people watching and my energy reserves already low, having five high-level martial artists as examiners, it's highly unlikely I could even try to get by without doing well."

The flow of Xu's qi, suddenly became turbulent.

And just then.

Ting!

Suddenly, a sharp crack echoed in Xu's mind.

System detected intense fluctuations in host's energy waves, "Infinite Upgrade System" awakening...ay to him.... More talented soul masters could break through the shackles of heaven and earth, connecting to the "Celestial Divine Meridian," awakening the legendary "Worldly God"...Lingyunzong is one...
