C1 Divine Level Duplication System
In Green Jade City, at the Lin Family's Martial Arts Practice Field, the family members were engaged in their monthly strength evaluation. Among the onlookers, a striking young man gazed into the void with a look of astonishment. "A month has gone by, and I never imagined I'd actually acquire the Divine Level Duplication System."
Only he could see the attribute panel floating in the void before him:
"Divine Level Duplication System."
"Host: Lin Xuan."
"Realm: Seventh Level of Body Refining."
"Talent: Middle-Grade Cultivation."
"Martial Arts: Rolling Rock Fist (Top-Grade Rank 1, Initial Perfect Level), Yellow Sand Palm (Mid-Grade Rank 1, Great Completion)."
"Energy Points: 573."
"Walkspace: 7."
Lin Xuan exhaled deeply, his expression one of bewilderment. Indeed, he was not of this world. In his past life, he was a mere orphan, diligently working just to survive. But upon awakening, he found himself in the Tianyuan Continent, a place straight out of the web novels he had read before. Here, the rules were familiar, but with one stark difference: everyone was born with innate talent for cultivation, making martial arts the aspiration of all.
The extent of one's talent largely determined their potential for greatness as a martial artist. Lin Xuan had come to terms with his new reality and embraced his identity in this world. Though he lamented not receiving any special favors, he took solace in the fact that he wasn't without talent. Recognized as a prodigy within the Lin Family, he stood just below the family's top three geniuses, ensuring he was no one's victim.
A month had swiftly passed, and Lin Xuan had settled into his new life. Today marked the Lin Family's day for strength assessment, and he was ready to test his mettle in combat. However, he hadn't anticipated the arrival of the Divine Level Duplication System at such a moment. It brought a wry smile to his face; even without this extraordinary system, he knew he could lead a decent life. But without it, he would remain just another martial artist.
Now equipped with the Divine Level Duplication System, Lin Xuan's life was bound to become even more thrilling.
After a moment of reflection, he regained his focus and delved into the intricacies of the Divine Level Duplication System.
Information flooded his mind, causing a slight headache, but Lin Xuan quickly assimilated it all, his eyes alight with wild joy.
The system was far more formidable than he had anticipated.
The Divine Level Duplication System, true to its name, possessed the power to duplicate.
Yet its capabilities extended well beyond its apparent function.
He could replicate the treasures found on other warriors or even demonic beasts by expending energy points.
These treasures ranged from innate talents and martial arts to the very bodies of the beasts, among other things.
On the Tianyuan Continent, martial talent was a warrior's most vital asset, largely shaping their destiny.
With the Divine Level Duplication System, Lin Xuan could copy various talents from others by using energy points, thereby enhancing his own abilities.
Indeed, the system was incredibly potent, and duplicating talent was merely one of its many features.
Even the usually composed Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel a surge of elation.
However, his excitement soon gave way to calm resolve.
Powerful as the system was, it required time to master.
He knew better than to rush the process.
Lin Xuan continued his exploration of the system, pondering, "The system seems to lack sentience. How then do I acquire these energy points?"
A question began to take shape in his mind.
"Lin Xuan, what's the matter?"
Just then, a melodious voice reached his ears.
A gentle girl addressed him, her attire a serene shade of green, radiating purity.
Though only in her mid-teens, her beauty was evident, promising even greater splendor with time.
"Shiyun, I'm alright," Lin Xuan replied, turning to offer a reassuring smile to the girl at his side.
The girl in green was none other than his betrothed, Lin Shiyun.
Their bond had been strong since childhood, and they had long agreed to marry upon reaching adulthood.
This was one of the key reasons Lin Xuan had so quickly acclimated to this world.
"That's good to hear."
Lin Shiyun let out a soft chuckle.
Unable to unravel the mysteries of the system any further, Lin Xuan simply let it be and engaged in lighthearted banter with Lin Shiyun. Before long, he had coaxed a quiet laugh from her.
Having lived in the Technological Era in his past life, he had a significant edge over this world's martial artists in certain respects.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the crowd, a young man with delicate, almost feminine features watched Lin Xuan and Lin Shiyun with eyes brimming with envy.
"Lin Lei, it's your turn to challenge Lin Xuan. Make him pay—let him bleed and suffer for ignoring my words!"
He huffed with disdain.
"Don't worry, Hai. I've got this."
Beside Lin Hai, a burly youth eyed Lin Xuan from afar, his fists ready for action.
Before long, the victor was declared on the stage.
"Who else is up for the challenge?"
The referee scanned the crowd and called out with authority.
"I will!"
Lin Lei's voice boomed as he stepped onto the stage.
"Whom do you wish to challenge?"
The referee inquired.
"Lin Xuan!"
Lin Lei's voice thundered, capturing the attention of everyone at the Martial Arts Practice Field.
The referee nodded towards Lin Xuan and announced, "Lin Xuan, to the stage!"
The Lin Family disciples around them exchanged knowing glances and whispers.
"Lin Lei, one of Lin Hai's lackeys, has chosen to challenge Lin Xuan. This is going to get interesting."
"Indeed. Lin Hai, the Head Elder's grandson, has long fancied Lin Xuan's fiancée, Lin Shiyun, but faced rejection from both Lin Xuan and Shiyun."
"Shiyun has always been Lin Xuan's shield in the past. She can't do that now. Let's watch and see how Lin Xuan fares."
The disciples looked on at Lin Xuan, their eyes gleaming with anticipatory glee.
Lin Xuan's brow lifted at the murmurs.
He hadn't anticipated Lin Hai's relentless pursuit to torment him.
Lin Xuan had been with the Lin Family for over a month, gaining a solid grasp of their dynamics. Lin Shiyun, Lin Hai, and Lin Yun were the Lin Family's three prodigies.
Following them were the likes of Lin Xuan, who were also exceptionally talented.
Lin Shiyun, as both a genius and the most beautiful woman in the Lin Family, inevitably drew the admiration of many fellow disciples, including Lin Hai.
However, Lin Shiyun's affections were reserved for Lin Xuan.
Despite Lin Hai's persistent machinations to harm Lin Xuan, he never managed to carry out his plans, thwarted by Lin Shiyun's interventions and her significant background.
