Chapter 3

3. Chapter 3 - Second Simulation, Unsalvageable Ending
That night, Su Xing returned to the dormitory in a happy mood.

I should make it clear that Su Xing didn't do anything wrong.

He just invited the schoolgirl to the small dark room and conducted some bitter persuasion.

For this kind of schoolgirl who was about to step into the abyss, Su Xing's main focus was to help her find a way out.

Over the following week, Su Xing started taking on new students every day, and he was exchanging the equipment he had scored for energy.

In just one week, Su Xing earned more than 200,000 Daxia coins, which was quite rewarding.

During this period, Su Xing also tried to buy some higher-quality equipment and potions to exchange for energy. However, he found that white-quality equipment exchanging energy was still the most cost-effective choice. On this day, the life simulator cooled down. Su Xing was in an excited mood as he lay on the bed and chose the simulation. ‘Start simulation!’

[Consuming 200 points of energy, remaining energy 1082 points, remaining number of simulations none.]

[Simulation begins!

[Extracting white talent costs 100 points of energy, green talent costs 1000 points of energy, is it extracted?]

Su Xing paused for a moment and decided to go ahead and extract the white talent.
[Cost 100 points of energy, remaining energy 982 points, random talent extraction in the ...]

Ding, congratulations on obtaining the white talent, Business Elite!

【Business Elite】：Your business vision is above average, and it's easier for you to make money than normal when you're doing business.

Su Xing nodded.

Although the Business World Elite talent didn't directly enhance his strength, it did allow him to gain more wealth in the simulation, so it was a good move.

[Inside the dormitory, you have a unique business vision, and you plan to invest to make money.]

[You spent all of your savings and purchased a large amount of low-level skill scrolls and equipment.]

[You continue to bring new students to practice leveling and earn extra money.]

[While levelling, you recommended equipment and skills to the new students.]

[The new students are so impressed by your eloquence that they pay for them!]

[You made 30 million in just one year by buying low and selling high.] [You're about to graduate.

[You're about to graduate, and with only the sixth level of body refining, you stayed in the class.]

[But you didn't let that get you down and kept on going as a second-hand dealer.]

You started to take over the second-hand market on campus, from equipment to skill scrolls to recovery potions, you were involved in everything.

Within two years, you were a businessman worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

Not satisfied with that, you started to develop a downline.

You set up a trading organisation called the Tarot Club and opened a shop in Kyoto.

After two more years, you were kicked out of school. But you were fine with that because your business was doing well, until one day you were targeted. A woman named Wang Qingxuan approached you and told you that she was the schoolmate you'd spiritually redeemed back then. She said that she'd joined a mysterious organisation and that her mission was to drag you into it.

[You ask her what organisation it is, but she doesn't tell you.]

[You refuse to join this mysterious organisation.]

[She tells you that if you don't join this organisation, there's only death in store for you.]

[You laugh and invite out several Master-ranked professional bodyguards.]

[Your bodyguards are easily killed by her.]

[You are surprised to find that after not seeing her for several years, she had actually become a Grandmaster-ranked professional.]

Su Xing froze when he saw this.

Just so you know, the ranks of the professionals in this world go from low to high like this:

Bronze Rank, Silver Rank, Gold Rank, Master Rank, Patriarch Rank, Heavenly King Rank, Martial Emperor Rank, Legendary Rank, Great Emperor Rank, Holy Rank, and God Rank.
And between each rank, there were a full thirty minor ranks.

For example, a bronze rank 30 professional couldn't level up after reaching the full level. They had to go to the ‘advancement dungeon’ to complete the advancement quests to be able to continue to level up.

At a top university like Kyoto Vocational University, a Gold-ranked professional would be able to graduate in four years.

But Wang Qingxuan had actually gone from bronze rank to master rank in just five years?
‘Hiss~ I'm afraid there's a big secret hidden behind this mysterious organisation!’

Su Xing took a deep breath and continued reading.

[You thought you were dead, but Wang Qingxuan didn't kill you.]

She told you that you were kind to her back then, and that she wanted to repay you.

That night, you had sex. The next day, she left, and there was a bit of blood on the bedsheets. Su Xing froze when she saw this. She didn't think that this Wang Qingxuan was actually the first time. Then why did it turn out that way in the last simulation? What happened in this? After she left, you felt guilty and thought you'd been misunderstanding her.

You asked around for her whereabouts, but got the news that she was dead. You were shocked. How could a master like her die so easily? You suspect that Wang Qingxuan may have failed to complete her mission and was secretly solved by the mysterious organisation. You started investigating the mysterious organisation behind Wang Qingxuan, but found nothing. You gave up on the investigation and started to improve your strength instead.

[You ran a business while acquiring a large number of dungeon props that could enhance your physical qualities.]

[At the same time, you never gave up your search for Immortal Cultivation Techniques.]]

Two years have passed, and you haven't found any Immortal Cultivation Techniques, but your Body Refinement Cultivation has risen dramatically, reaching the Body Refinement Grand Completion.

[You suddenly remembered that your sister, Su Nian'an, died in this year.]

[You went back home and told your sister not to enter any dungeons in that year.]

[Although Su Nian'an was puzzled, she still agreed to it with good behaviour.]

[Your sister has been safe and sound this year.]]

Su Xing was relieved to see this, after all, he had saved his sister.

But then Su Xing's face changed.

The next year, your sister carried on with the dungeon mission and died.

You started looking into why your sister died, but found nothing.

You were not willing to accept this, so you used a lot of resources and many means to investigate.

You finally got something. Someone told you that your sister died in a dungeon called ‘Zhen Demon Pass’.

[You started looking into the dungeon, but found nothing.]

[You had no choice but to give up, keep running the business, and work hard to get stronger.]]

Three years have passed, and your strength is still stuck in the great circle of body refining, and you can't advance an inch.

You suddenly remembered that your good brother Yu Yan also died in this year.

[So you found Yu Yan and told him not to go down to the dungeon this year.]

[Yu Yan's face was unsure, but he still nodded and agreed.]

[A month later, you got the bad news that Yu Yan had died.]

[You feel something is wrong in your heart and start looking into the cause of Yu Yan's death.]

As you suspected, your investigation revealed that Yu Yan also died in the dungeon. And it wasn't just him. Most of your classmates from back then also died in the dungeon. You were terrified. You realised that this dungeon is like a meat grinder, constantly devouring the lives of those around you.
