One night of hard work,
and it finally paid off!
Looking at the pile of jade and gemstones before him, Su Yang finally let out a sigh of relief.
He had more or less figured it out by now: these items contained trace amounts of special energy that the system could absorb and convert into simulation points.
The problem was...
"They're way too expensive!"
Su Yang sighed. Only top-tier jade, the best of the best, met the system's absorption criteria.
For example, the imperial green jade pendant in his hand, worth over 30 million yuan, only yielded 3 simulation points after being absorbed.
In other words, it took 10 million yuan just to get 1 simulation point.
To be fair, if the exchange rate really was 10 million per point, Su Yang wouldn't have hesitated. He'd even considered blowing through his entire fortune just to rack up simulation points.
Too bad cash had no effect at all.
"Maybe some special minerals would work too?"
Su Yang mused to himself.
Then he immediately gave orders for his team to gather and deliver large quantities of rare ores and minerals.
As for attending class?
Forget it. Until he confirmed a reliable method of earning simulation points, school was the last thing on his mind.
Throughout the day, Su Yang received a flood of messages asking if something had happened to him, every single one from girls.
Seriously, being too handsome was a curse.
But by the end of the day, some good news finally came in:
Some of the ores did, in fact, contain special energy the system could absorb and convert into simulation points.
Though the cost was still steep.
On average, he estimated it took about 1 million yuan to generate 1 simulation point.
And it wasn't just about money, some of these ores were extremely hard to come by.
[Simulation Points: 169]
"Still not enough," Su Yang muttered, shaking his head. But he didn't hesitate to claim his reward from the previous simulation.
[You spent 100 simulation points to claim the Chakra Proficiency reward.]
[You have gained a small amount of chakra.]
As soon as the system prompt appeared, Su Yang felt a strange energy surge within his body.
"So this is chakra…"
Guided by instinct, he activated it. A soft layer of chakra shimmered faintly around his hands.
There was no awkwardness or difficulty, like he'd done this countless times before.
"Even though the simulation didn't go into detail, I must've trained tree climbing and water walking techniques pretty well."
Su Yang suddenly understood, not everything from the simulation is described in full.
Sometimes, a single line could represent a huge gain.
His chakra reserves were modest, but the difference between having chakra and not having it was night and day.
He tested it a bit and realized, he could now easily take on ten of his previous selves.
Especially with chakra enhancement, leaping several meters high was effortless. No normal human could match that.
"Does this make me a superhuman?"
Su Yang thought it did.
No ordinary person could jump seven or eight meters without a running start, punch a hole in a concrete wall and walk away unscathed.
All of this came from gaining chakra.
Even without mastering any ninjutsu, just having chakra had already elevated him beyond human limits.
But it wasn't enough.
Not nearly enough.
His eyes turned toward the simulator panel:
[World Simulator]
Host: Su Yang
Profession: None
Level: None
Talent: Sharingan (Not Yet Awakened)
Skill: Chakra (LV1)
Simulation Points: 69
Simulation Attempts: 1 (Resets daily)
LV1 chakra… Su Yang wasn't sure how much that really meant.
He could only guess.
A new day meant a refreshed simulation attempt, but with just 69 points left, he couldn't afford to gamble on drawing a green-tier talent.
He didn't even have enough points to claim rewards, how could he splurge on talents?
Time to simulate again.
[World Confirmed. Entering the Naruto Universe Simulation.]
[You may consume simulation points to generate a green-tier talent. Insufficient points. Random white-tier talent will be generated…]
[Simulation Start!]
[Random talents generated. Choose one for this simulation:]
Physically Gifted (Green-tier)
Looks Like Pan An (White-tier)
Slow But Steady (White-tier)
Physically Gifted: A green-tier talent. Your limbs grow stronger than average, granting you strength far beyond ordinary people. However, there are side effects, like a simple mind.
Looks Like Pan An: A white-tier talent. Grants you extraordinary good looks.
Slow But Steady: A white-tier talent. Repeated effort guarantees results, do something enough times, and you'll eventually gain something from it.
Huh?
A green-tier showed up?
Su Yang was surprised. So even random draws had a chance to produce green-tier talents.
But this one…
Physically Gifted, yet simple-minded?
Even if it was green-tier, the downside was a little concerning.
"This won't help me survive past age 6."
He quickly ruled that one out.
And Looks Like Pan An? Useless!
Better to go with Slow But Steady, at least it offered long-term benefits.
[You are born!]
[You find yourself with a small reserve of innate chakra. Fortunately, your control over it is precise, and no one has noticed. You keep it hidden.]
[You realize you were born into the Uchiha clan. You also know the Uchiha Massacre is just 8 years away.]
[Naturally, you're extremely cautious not to let anyone know about your chakra.]
Just as I thought!
Any power or skill I possess in the real world carries over into the simulation.
Su Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
And with the Slow But Steady talent, if I run enough simulations, I won't just make it to age 8.
At this rate, I could probably take down Itachi Uchiha by age 4!
[Even though you already have chakra, you're aware that your young body isn't yet suited for refining it. You instead use chakra to nourish your body.]
[One year later, your chakra-enhanced body reaches a level where you can begin chakra refinement.]
[You realize chakra cultivation has significantly strengthened your physical development.]
No doubt,
That had to be the Slow But Steady talent at work.
Su Yang's eyes sparkled. He was genuinely impressed.
For his current stage, this might just be a god-tier simulation talen
