Chapter 36: Past Contempt

"It's begun..."

"What are you mumbling about, Youchen? Have you finished lunch yet and are you just talking to yourself?"

"Why call me Youchen! Do you know how to respect your elders? Call me uncle! Also, stay out of the way, kid. "

You Chen waved his hands at Xiao Wu with a look of disgust, letting Xiao Wu puff up her cheeks and walk aside to sulk.

Five days have passed since You Chen kidnapped Xiao Wu.

Since leaving Wuhun City, he has naturally been refreshing new tasks as usual.

As Youchen of the old timeline grows, the levels of the targets he needs to counterattack also increase accordingly, and the mission rewards also gradually increase.

Just like the normal mission system, the more troublesome the opponent and the more difficult the mission target, the richer the mission reward.

The number of primary-level elixir rewards has increased significantly, and intermediate-quality nutritional pills have even appeared.

However, either the target persons have died, or when Grace was asked to collect information, she found that the person was too far away, or You Chen did not think highly of the rewards, so they were abandoned one by one by You Chen.

Not to mention a few primary experience pills, even a hundred-year-level soul ring age-increasing card, which could directly enhance attributes or even the origin, he did not take it seriously.

After all, it is only at the hundred-year level. For him now, it is hard to say whether there will be any obvious effect without a dozen or twenty cards.

It was generally only in the extra rewards that he would be a little entangled if there was a useful martial arts. But at best, it was only a martial arts of the level of "Flying on the Grass", which was not worth Youchen's special stay for him.

The reason...the battle lasted for more than half a month, spanning over two years.

9+2=11.

In other words, soon the mission timeline will reach the time node when You Chen is 12 years old.

When You Chen showed the qualities of a theoretical genius, his status was completely different from that of the previous little Karami.

This means that the level of trouble he will encounter will increase dramatically, and it also means that the quality of mission rewards will have a qualitative leap!

In fact, after the novice mission, the rewards that have appeared so far, the only two that can attract You Chen are "Soul-Shocking Art" and "Flash of Inspiration".

The other best ones are things that seem good but are actually of no use to You Chen.

But he never lowered his focus on the system's mission.

Because he knows very well that just because the rewards now are average or poor, it doesn’t mean that the rewards in the future will be poor!

As the intensity of the mission objective (at that time) increased, even if the mission reward was just an intermediate experience pill as a token of his appreciation, it could save him a lot of time!

If one could perfectly digest the tasks accumulated by the old self over the past twenty years at a very fast speed, the rewards would definitely not be worse than any magical herbs or even divine tests!

However, in the process of continuously eliminating tasks with average rewards, it is natural that there will be tasks with rewards that will tempt You Chen and that he has a great chance of obtaining.

But then comes a new problem...

[Task: Senior student Kendall (level 20 soul master) competes with you for the final reward of the junior rank of the academy. This is an opponent that you can hardly defeat even if you try your best at this stage! And his contempt for you is also undisguised on the surface. As a being destined to become a god, how can you tolerate such humiliation! ? Please defeat Kendall and tell him that the so-called protagonist is the one who can defeat the strong with the weak and carve a way forward from the dark wilderness! If you complete it within three minutes, you will receive an additional reward]

[Basic rewards: three intermediate nutrition pills, one "Yi Jin Fa Sui" skill, one "Flash of Inspiration" skill]

[Extra Reward: "The Secret of Immortality" (a life-related secret technique that can lock in essence and blood and prolong life)]

The soul master stage is a very magical stage.

Normally, when you are at a low level, as long as you don't cross a large realm, the soul power strength will not be much different if you have a few more levels of soul power. Therefore, unless you are stuck in a stalemate and a protracted war, the difference in soul power level at the same level is not critical.

But at the soul master stage, because the soul masters have too little soul power, they can only use the hundred-year soul skills a few times. If they are one or two levels higher, they can use soul skills one or two more times, so the actual combat effectiveness will naturally be significantly increased.

On the contrary, there will be a gap of several levels, which is bigger than the sky.

You Chen still remembered the cross-grade competition at the end of the semester described in the system task. The Spirit Hall Academy was also divided into three branches: junior high school, middle school and senior high school, and each branch was divided into several grades according to the year of admission.

So although they are in different grades, there is only one year difference between him and Kendall.

However, what was You Chen's soul power level at that time?
Level 14.

He broke through the first ring at the age of 9, reached level 11 after absorbing the soul ring, and then practiced for more than two years, but only rose 3 levels.

This was You Chen’s talent for cultivation at that time.

He could rely on his extraordinary efforts, a mentality beyond his age and some tricks to defeat a group of students of the same grade who were only one or two grades higher than him.

But facing Kendall, who is only one year older than him, and although he has not absorbed the second ring to become a great soul master, his soul power level is still 6 levels lower than his own, and he is also a high-level martial soul master...

No chance of winning.

If it weren't for the end-of-term reward for the primary branch, Kendall might have chosen to break through to the Great Spirit Master level and transfer to the Intermediate Academy for training. Such a Kendall would naturally not give Youchen any chance.

It was a crushing defeat.

Perhaps because of the huge gap between the two at the time, the rewards given by the system were extremely luxurious.

Needless to say, it was a flash of inspiration. If the previous mission had this reward, You Chen would not have given up.

What is more crucial is the book "The Secret of Immortality".

There is no one who does not desire immortality.

Even if he obtained the system, You Chen could not guarantee that he could become an immortal god, so the value of extending his life was self-evident.

In addition, locking up the essence and blood can also prolong the golden period of cultivation.

In terms of value, this "Art of Immortality" is definitely not comparable to "Art of Shocking the Soul".

You Chen was naturally...moved.

You Chen never expected that a normal competition in the college competition would be judged as a "counterattack mission" by the system because of Kendall's "contempt".

The collision between the two parties was judged as a "conflict". Of course, this could also be because the "minimum living security" mechanism was triggered...

To be honest, if it weren't for the system's description, You Chen would have never known that he was looked down upon by the other party. After all, he didn't see the ability of the color palette in other people's eyes.

But he vaguely remembered that Kendall, now 36 years old, was already a six-ring Soul Emperor.

In today's Spirit Hall, he has already become a senior figure and is said to be a hot candidate for the cardinal.

What this means is self-explanatory.

Every cardinal is at least a Soul Saint.

This means that Kendall is now not far from becoming a Soul Saint.

If the opponent is just an ordinary Soul Emperor, even if he holds a high position in the Spirit Hall, You Chen can still think of a way to secretly collect intelligence through the Soul Fighting Beast and attack secretly when the opponent is performing a mission.

Regardless of whether the "Eternal Life Secret" is worth the risk, at least You Chen is not helpless and has "options" to consider.

However, being a cardinal meant that this guy not only had many people watching him, but there might also be powerful people who were secretly protecting him because of their own interests...

It would be too much to ask the Soul Fighting Beast to find out whether there are Soul Saints or even Soul Fighters hiding around Kendall.

To target him basically means to go up against at least one Soul Sage.

As we all know, Soul Saint is the stage where the Soul Master's strength undergoes a qualitative change.
