Chapter 1: A World of Paradox

"Handsome guy, are you interested in signing up for the martial arts hall's cultivation class?"

On the way home, a beautiful girl in tight gym clothes stopped Lin Shen and enthusiastically handed him a flyer.

Lin Shen paused and looked down at the flyer.

The four big characters of Taiyang Martial Arts Hall immediately came into view.

"Our martial arts hall is a regular martial arts hall officially authorized by the Three Sects Mansion, and it is second to none in the entire Linlong City in terms of scale and teaching quality!"

Seeing Lin Shen stop, the girl immediately seized the opportunity to persuade her.

"No matter which of the three foundation laying exercises you are cultivating or which realm you have reached, our martial arts hall can tailor the most suitable course for you, and there is also a long-lasting breath realm instructor to teach it personally!"

Lin Shen smiled slightly, took the leaflet and said, "Thank you, I'll think about it." ”

The girl had heard similar words hundreds of times, but she couldn't hear Lin Shen's perfunctory meaning, and continued to persuade without giving up:

"Our martial arts hall has recently had a preferential event, and now the registration fee can be discounted by 20%, and the basic course is only 7999 spirit coins!"

Lin Shen was still unmoved, smiled faintly, turned around and left in the disappointed gaze of the girl, and disappeared into the crowd.

Four or five minutes later, Lin Shen came to the bus stop, and it happened that a No. 32 bus came slowly, stopped in front of the station, and opened the front and rear doors with a creak.

As the crowd got on the bus, Lin Shen took out a one-face spirit coin and threw it into the coin box, and then found a corner window seat and sat down.

After a short time, the bus left the station and continued on its way.

Looking at the street scene that was rapidly sweeping backwards outside the window, Lin Shen breathed a sigh of relief, and his expression was slightly complicated.

It's been almost a week since he crossed over to this world, and he's almost familiar with the people and environment around him.

Who would have thought that just by sleeping and waking up, he would travel to another world.

At first glance, many places in this world are very similar, such as the high-rise buildings along the streets, the endless flow of vehicles, and even the clothing of passers-by, which are not much different from the world of the previous life.

But after in-depth understanding, Lin Shen found that this was not the case.

As far as he knew, there was no such thing as a state in this world, and all cities were ruled by an institution called the sect.

For example, Linlong City, where he is now located, is located in Dongkaidao, one of the five realms of the Eastern Divine Continent, and is a prosperous city under the joint rule of the three major sects of the Storm Sect, the Qingshuang Sect and the Jiuyang Sect, with an area of 7,500 square kilometers, a population of more than 3.5 million, and more than ten subordinate cities, which can be called a behemoth in the Eastern Sea Dao.

And what maintains the dominance of these sects is a powerful force that transcends the mundane!

"Extraordinary Strength......

Lin Shen muttered to himself.

The level of military science and technology development in this world is outrageously low, and it is almost still in the era of cold weapons.

Firearms, shells, tanks...... Many of the thermal weapons that were familiar in the previous life have no shadow here.

On the other hand, the martial arts and immortal methods that only existed in fantasy before the previous life are widely known here.

In Linlong City, all young people and girls who have reached the age of fifteen can start the path of cultivation and choose one of the foundation exercises of the three major sects to cultivate.

Those who have achieved success in their studies can participate in the annual examination and compete for the opportunity to enter the Taoist monasteries affiliated to the three major sects.

Martial arts prevail in this world, advocating strength, so entering the three major sects is almost everyone's dream.

Once you are fortunate enough to become a monk, you can even enter the upper class in one fell swoop, become a superior person, and enjoy privileges and status that ordinary people cannot imagine.

Therefore, every year, there are no math students who practice day and night for the succession of their predecessors.

The predecessor was no exception.

Lin Shen's current body is only eighteen years old this year, and he is a student of Huailiu Academy in Linlong City who is about to take the big exam, and his cultivation techniques are the Zhengyuan Breathing Technique and the Blazing Sun Palm.

The Zhengyuan Tuna Technique is the entry method of the vast majority of Xuanmen Sects in Linlong City, or the entire Eastern Divine Continent.

As the cultivator's cultivation becomes more and more profound, the cultivation methods will gradually show a distinction between high and low, but the initial introductory exercises are almost the same, and the different paths are the same.

Therefore, all the young people and girls in Linlong City who have just stepped into the path of cultivation, no matter whether they are noble or poor, they all practiced the Zhengyuan Tuna Technique at the beginning.

As for the Blazing Sun Palm, it is the foundation martial arts of the Jiuyang Sect.

Lin Shen has been practicing these two exercises for more than two years, but only the Zhengyuan Breathing Technique has reached the proficient realm, and his cultivation has only reached the third level of pneumatics, and he can barely be ranked in the middle and lower reaches of the entire Huailiu Academy, and his cultivation qualifications can only be described as mediocre.

With such talent and strength, let alone joining the three major sects, he can't even get the qualification to participate in the big exam.

- If there are no accidents!

In the middle of my thoughts, the bus had arrived at the destination station.

Lin Shen retracted his gaze and got out of the car through the back door.

In any case, since it has been crossed, it is useless to complain about the heavens and people.

The only thing you can do is to accept the facts in front of you and find a way to survive better in this world.

Fortunately, Lin Shen was alone before and after the crossing.

There is no need to worry about someone grieving because of their disappearance, nor do you need to face the strange and complex interpersonal relationships after crossing over.

The only people who need to be familiar with it are the teachers and students of the college.

After careful exploration these days, Lin Shen has basically become familiar with the interpersonal relationship of his predecessor and has not aroused any suspicion.

Passing through a remote alleyway, a dilapidated apartment building comes into view.

The apartment building is more than 30 years old.

Many of the tiles on the exterior walls are peeling off, the mottled walls are covered with withered yellow creepers, and the stairs are covered with rust, and stepping on them makes a creaking and screaking sound, as if they will collapse at any time, which makes people feel terrified.

As soon as I stepped into the corridor on the third floor, a balding middle-aged man walked in front of me.

It is Liu De, who lives next door to Lin Shen, who is currently divorced and works in a real estate agency.

He was holding a briefcase and wearing a suit, and seemed to be about to go back to the company to work overtime, when he saw Lin Shen and said hello with a smile.

"I'm back, I got out of class so early today."

Lin Shen nodded politely and smiled.

He doesn't have much contact with this neighbor, and he meets and says hello on weekdays.

After chatting a few words, Lin Shen said goodbye to Liu De and walked towards his room at the end of the corridor.

Looking at his back, Liu De shook his head slightly.

In his impression, Lin Shen was immersed in cultivation in addition to attending classes, and he was the hardest working student he had ever seen.

It's a pity that the qualifications are a little worse, and I haven't achieved any results.

"Also, every year, so many people apply for the Third Avenue Academy, and there may not be one out of the hundred who succeed in the end, which is so easy to enter, and the vast majority of people are not like me, being an office worker for a lifetime!"

With a sigh of embarrassment, Liu De turned around and walked down the stairs.

Lin Shen didn't know what Liu De thought, and he didn't care if he knew.

Changed to the predecessor, there is indeed no hope of being admitted to the Third Avenue Academy in this life.

That changed from the moment he crossed over!

Click!

Pushing open the door of the apartment, Lin Shen walked in.

There were no lights in the living room, and the curtains on the balcony were closed, making the light slightly dim.

Lin Shen came to the center of the living room, and he didn't see any movement, two phantoms suddenly separated from his body, and fell four or five steps away, becoming solid at an astonishing speed.

If someone else was present at this time, they would definitely be taken aback.

It's just that the two figures after condensation, no matter their body shape, facial features, or temperament, are exactly the same as Lin Shen, just like carved out of a mold!
