Chapter 4: Destined to be a Loser for Life

  Xiao Yi looked at the enormous thing in front of him with great difficulty, if this guy was really the chicken they usually ate on the dinner table, then this guy could feed ten families for three days!

  That's all, although Xiao Yi's rationality clearly told him that the thing in front of him that looked very much like a chicken was not a chicken, but the name hanging above the opponent's head was indeed a robust rooster!

  What made Xiao Yi feel even more desperate was that this guy had a full thirty points of health, while Xiao Yi was only level two and had a mere twenty points of health.

  The current long sword in hand has an attack power of 1-3, which means that even if you are extremely lucky and hit the highest damage every time, it would still take ten hits to kill the opponent. This does not include the frustrating MISS!

  Chop for ten seconds! At least use ten seconds, this time is enough for the big rooster to abuse itself twenty times!

  "Do we really need to take action against it? It's standing here just fine, and it doesn't seem to be bothering anyone. And look at me, I've been standing in front of it for so long, and it hasn't shown any strong aggression towards me, which means it's quite docile, right?"

  Although he felt that Da Gong Ji was glaring at him, Xiao Yi really wanted to get a definite answer from Yuwen Wan.

  Wan Wan sighed and said, "It seems I need to explain it again. In the game, there are three colors of health bars. The first is green, which means that creature has a friendly relationship with you and will absolutely not attack you, and you can't attack them either. Next is yellow, like the big rooster's health bar now, they won't actively attack you but will counterattack after you attack them. As for red health bars, those are extremely dangerous creatures that will actively attack you!

  "Alright, so?" Xiao Yi felt that he hadn't gotten any valuable information from Yuwen's words.

  "So if you have the upper hand now! As long as you can make good use of this advantage, it's possible that the big rooster won't even have time to counterattack before being taken down by you!"

  "This is just theoretical value, don't you think it's possible?"

  "How would you know if you don't try?"

  After some thought, Xiao Yi nodded and took a deep breath, holding the short sword in his hand as he walked towards Da Gong Ji. The short sword had a cool name - Broken Short Sword!

  When they arrived in front of the Big Rooster, Xiao Yi directly threw the sword in his hand to the ground and picked up a handful of grass seeds from the ground and put them to the Big Rooster's mouth and said: "Brother, can we make a deal? Can you let me kill once? Just once?"

  The big rooster was eating the grass seeds in Xiao Yi's hand while staring at him with a "do you think I'm an idiot" look.

  "Xiao Yi, you're such a waste! What are you doing?!" Wanwan asked from behind Xiao Yi with a tone of frustration.

  "Shut up! Does a sword spirit dare to shout loudly in front of its own master? I'm obviously testing the opponent's attack power! Watch me take down this big rooster now!"

  After finishing, Xiao Yi's eyes flashed with a cold light. He threw the grass seed in his hand towards Da Gong Ji's eyes and then kicked the sword that he had deliberately thrown at his own feet flying up.

  Time waits for no man, Xiao Yi's eyes remained fixed on the big rooster's neck, he didn't even look at where the short sword flying in mid-air was. He knew there was only one chance and he had to make it a fatal blow!

  The familiar feeling of the sword hilt returned to his hand, and Xiao Yi's mouth couldn't help but curve into a faint smile. He knew he had won, as long as he could swing the blade in his hand to give his opponent a blow, his opponent would definitely be dead without a chance to escape.

  Xiao Yi concentrated almost all his strength on this one sword, and as the sword tip got closer and closer to the rooster's neck, Xiao Yi's smile grew brighter. Then he was ruthlessly trampled underfoot by the big rooster.

  "Cock, cock, cock." The big rooster continued to eat the grass seeds under its feet calmly, as if nothing had happened just now. Before long, Xiao Yu turned into a white light and disappeared.

  "This is too much, isn't this a scam?! I've already done so perfectly and yet it still ends up like this, can this game even be played anymore?! If it can't be played then speak up, I'll just go back to LOL!" Xiaoyi's state was extremely furious as he rushed out from the respawn point.

  It's no wonder that Xiao Yi is so furious. When he entered the game, the pain setting was set to 100%. Just now, when Da Gong Ji kicked him, it directly broke all his bones and made him faint from the pain. Even thinking about it now makes Xiao Yi feel terrified!

  Wan Wan waved her hand and said, "Calm down a bit, this is just what the plot requires. In teaching mode, there will always be such a link, it's just that your pain is a bit weird. Now I need to explain to you, in the game, you are not absolutely safe. When you are executing tasks, returning from the wild, or even taking a bath in the river, you will all be attacked."

  "If you die in these attacks, you will revive at the revival point. What I want to say is please note that you are not permanently and unlimitedly revivable, each player's account only has five Goddess' Tears for revival, if this thing is used up, then your character will no longer be able to revive."

  "You mean I can only revive five times?" Xiao Yi asked with an incredulous expression.

  "Yes, theoretically it is like this!"

  "You just told me to die? Don't you know that my revival chances are precious? Unfilial daughter, how could I have a sword spirit like you?"

  "This was just a tutorial process earlier, so it won't consume your Goddess's Tears. I'm telling you this just to let you know that the game has risks and upgrading requires caution!"

  "What should I do now? I've made it clear that I'm not capable of killing this massive creature, even if I use up all five chances of revival. Think of a solution, you're my sword spirit after all! If I disappear, won't you be trapped forever and never able to appear again?"

  Wanwan thought for a moment and nodded: "What you said is right, it's indeed like this. You see, you've already leveled up to 2nd level now, why not add the talent points first? You should know that in this game, cultivation is divided into ten levels, and each level requires a certain number of talent points to light up the body meridian diagram to complete the cultivation. It just so happens that completing the cultivation requires 100 levels!

  "I'm almost a university student, you think I'm failing math? Why didn't you say this earlier, and what's the use of adding these talent points now?"

  "Of course it's useful, every skill point will increase your attributes and make them grow. And after completing a meridian diagram each time, you'll also get extra rewards, which vary depending on the nature of the meridian diagram. Besides, now that you can learn skills, you still have some money on you, why not spend it in the store to buy some basic skill books? At least that way, you can increase your attack power!"

  "Can I learn skills?" Xiao Yi asked excitedly.

  "Ah!"

  "Could I actually learn skills now?" Xiao Yu was so excited that he had tears streaming down his face.

  "Ah!"

  "Why didn't you tell me earlier and let me rush up like a fool to grab this broken copper sword and fight to the death with others? I'm asking if you're really my Sword Spirit or are you just a free gift with purchase?"

  Heartbroken and desperate, Xiao Yi decided to rely on himself. This year's head was always so unreliable with women. After opening the store, Xiao Yi inquired that he could now learn sword energy, diamond symbols, and air therapy techniques.

  Jian Qi is a basic skill of Jian Xiu, which passively increases the user's attack power. Jin Gang Fu increases defense power, while Qi Liao Shu provides the user with temporary recovery ability. After Xiao Yi learned these three skills, combined with the attribute rewards he obtained from adding a little talent earlier, he suddenly found that it wasn't very difficult to take down Da Gong Ji now.

  "You're really screwing me over!" Xiao Yu's eyes were filled with resentment as he looked at Wanwan again.

  He gave himself a golden talisman, then activated his sword energy and casually applied an air therapy technique. Xiao Yi almost single-handedly battered the Great Rooster to death with brute force, completely without any skill involved!

  "I said, I've only mastered three basic skills and yet I was able to take down the Big Rooster. If someone had chosen a sect normally, they should only know one skill by now. I just calculated it earlier, even if any of those skills were used, it's impossible for someone at level 2 to take down the Big Rooster on their own. So how did they complete this task?" Xiao Yu felt like he had discovered a huge secret!

  "Silly, they can form teams, okay?! Besides, they have a sect, before level 10, no need to do any combat quests, just sit and meditate well! At most, it's just helping their own master run errands!" Yuanyuan said with ruthless sarcasm.

  Xiao Yi decided not to bother with this dead girl, he still had a lot of things to do, and this wasn't even a bad thing, soloing always gave more experience than teaming up to kill monsters, and this meant he could challenge higher levels!

  "Alright, I had a lot of fun today, thank you, I'm off to sleep. There are still things to do tomorrow!"

  "No way, it's still early, let's play a bit longer! Your leveling speed is really too slow, don't you want to level up faster? Don't you want to learn new skills after reaching a higher level? Alright alright, the punishment time is almost over, as long as you can withstand my lightning attack, I'll let you take advantage of this opportunity!" Xianxian was a bit reluctant.

  Everyone said that there is something tomorrow, tomorrow I will have a farewell dinner with high school classmates! At that time, the two goddesses of our class will come, and I need to prepare well!

  "Losers are losers, destined to be single for a lifetime!"
