Siuteo

In the heart of the Azure Continent lies a legendary establishment known as Origin Mall.
This extraordinary store offers goods beyond imagination: a sip of its cola can instantly replenish one's vitality; its spicy snacks grant the strength to overcome powerful foes; the games it offers can accelerate cultivation progress; and its novels impart profound techniques and insights.
Origin Mall boasts a vast array of offerings, catering to leisure, entertainment, dining, and training needs alike.
However, there’s one rule that all visitors must remember: never cause trouble in the store. The owner, though unassuming, is unimaginably powerful.

"With your strength, Teacher, you couldn't pass the first level in one day?" Several people expressed their surprise.

After all, Murong Haitang was a powerful cultivator at the pinnacle of Pathseeker.

"The Tower of Trial is not as simple as it seems," Murong Haitang said with a calm smile.

"Alright, let's eat some instant noodles, and then we'll dive into the game!" Gu Yunxi suggested enthusiastically.

The group quickly grabbed their instant noodle cups and lined up at the hot water machine.

When they discovered that the hot water came from a spring imbued with vital energy, Mu Yurou and the others were astounded. However, that amazement paled in comparison to what awaited them inside the Tower of Trial.

Once they donned their helmets and entered the Tower, the immersive experience shocked them. The world inside felt so real that they almost mistook it for reality.

Fortunately, young people adapt quickly. It wasn't long before they were engrossed in the intense joy of overcoming challenges.

For students from Soaring Cloud Academy, opportunities to face life-and-death battles were rare, especially against ferocious monsters. This experience was unlike anything they had encountered before.

Before long, Bu Lige and Bu Shiyi arrived at Origin Mall.

"So many people today?" Bu Shiyi said, looking around in surprise.

The seven students from Soaring Cloud Academy had taken over most of the store's ten gaming seats.

Yao Ziyan, ever the considerate clerk, opted not to use the Tower of Trial to ensure there was always someone available to greet customers.

"They're all from Soaring Cloud Academy," Yao Ziyan explained.

The two siblings nodded in understanding.

Bu Lige sighed dramatically. "The shop is getting more and more popular. If we come late in the future, we might not even get a spot!"

Bu Shiyi smiled and nodded. "True. But now I think the rule of limiting game time to three hours per person isn't so bad. At least it gives more people a chance to play."

Hearing their conversation, Luo Chuan interjected, "Don't worry. I'll be adding more machines soon."

Both siblings beamed with excitement.

After finishing their instant noodles, Bu Lige and Bu Shiyi joined the others in the Tower of Trial, diving into their daily challenges.

The battles inside the Tower were thrilling, offering a level of intensity and refreshment that was nearly impossible to experience in real life.

After all, no cultivator would recklessly risk their life just to gain combat experience.

Why did cultivators strive to grow stronger? Wasn't it to survive and thrive?

"Good morning, Boss! Good morning, Sister Ziyan!"

Not long after, Jiang Shengjun walked into the shop, greeting everyone cheerfully.

"Huh? So many new faces today?" he asked, noticing the crowd.

Yao Ziyan explained the situation, and Jiang Shengjun nodded in understanding. A grin spread across his face as he spotted the last remaining gaming seat.

"Looks like my luck is pretty good today. Just one seat left!"

He quickly claimed it and entered the Tower of Trial. Jiang Shengjun had set a personal goal: to clear the first level. After all, this was a matter of pride—a contest between him and Bu Lige.

As the customers immersed themselves in the Tower of Trial, the shop grew quiet again.

Luo Chuan placed a recliner outside the store and lay down lazily, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere.

Inside, Yao Ziyan sat behind the counter, propping her chin in her hand. Her gaze was unfocused, as if her mind was wandering to some distant place.

Luo Chuan glanced at her briefly before closing his eyes, a faint smile tugging at his lips.

A new day had begun at Origin Mall.
