A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

"Why is she suddenly so strong?" The senior student, who had been knocked to the ground, finally had the strength to stand up. Clutching her chest, she weakly asked for advice.

"I wonder, do you think she might have some kind of treasure? Otherwise, I've never heard of someone's cultivation level increasing so quickly." Another person's expression was very solemn, with a hint of greed in their eyes.

Everyone wants to have a sudden increase in strength. There are no shortcuts in cultivation. Every step must be taken steadily. Even if you have the best aptitude, your final achievement will only be slightly higher than that of an ordinary person. In actual cultivation, the speed increase is not too exaggerated. However, Feng Jiutian has almost broken the ironclad rule of thousands of years. In just a few days, his cultivation level has increased so much. It is impossible not to be jealous.

"Treasure?" The senior student who had been knocked down noticed the word after getting up and sneered, "Impossible. If she could always be as strong as she appears, how could she not accept challenges? Being able to represent the academy in the Four Nations Tournament is something many people would want to do. Unless her strength is fake, she would not refuse at all."

The people around them exchanged glances and nodded in agreement, finding the idea to be true.

"As for whether it is true or not, we don't need to know too clearly. As long as everyone thinks she is, that's enough." The senior student's lips curled into a mocking smile, and she had some plans in mind.

Soon, rumors began to circulate throughout the academy, with widespread speculation that Feng Jiutian, the academy's top genius, dared not participate in the selection of elite students for seniors and disdained the event.

The academy itself is a place with a large number of people, so such news naturally spreads faster with the help of those who are interested, and it didn't take long for it to reach Feng Jiutian's ears.

"Is what they said true?" a classmate quietly asked Feng Jiutian.

"If you think it's true, then it's true; if you don't believe it, then it's false," Feng Jiutian explained casually. Such rumors wouldn't bother her in the slightest. She knew her own strength, and she really didn't care much about the so-called genius title.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as she had imagined. The rumors, which seemed insignificant, intensified and soon caused a stir throughout the entire academy.

If an inconspicuous person suddenly gains power, people might be amazed for a while and then move on. But the news that a genius's power might be fake makes everyone excited, and they can't wait to announce it to the whole world.

Human beings' inherent weaknesses.

Feng Jiutian was overwhelmed by all sorts of gazes and probing inquiries, and had to deal with many subtle tests almost every day.

This experience wasn't particularly pleasant, so he found a mentor, took a long leave of absence, and prepared to go into seclusion to cultivate, determined to further improve his strength.

In the basement, Feng Jiutian sat cross-legged, quietly sensing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Countless streams of spiritual energy surged toward her, gentle and nourishing, slowly healing Feng Jiutian's wounds, gradually fading them, and leaving not a single scar.

Feng Jiutian couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Feng Jiutian composed himself and solemnly opened the incomplete book of Contract Master in his hand, on which were written obscure and difficult-to-understand sentences.

Having learned from his first experience, Feng Jiutian took a deep breath and began to concentrate on comprehending the contents of the incomplete book.

After an unknown amount of time, Feng Jiutian exhaled a deep breath, his mind filled with complex incantations.

The deeper Feng Jiutian went, the more he realized the complexity of the Contract Master. This single page contained countless essential points. It seemed easy to understand at a glance, but when it came to actually implementing them, he found that he could not grasp them at all.

Gradually, a week passed before Feng Jiu truly experienced its wonders.

As Feng Jiutian chanted an incantation, a huge golden contract array appeared in his field of vision, imbued with rich spiritual power.

This is the contract array of the contracted demon, but because Feng Jiutian's enlightenment is insufficient, it is still only a cone shape at present.

Feng Jiutian frowned slightly.

The deeper she delved into her cultivation, the more she realized that even with the incomplete version, it was still missing something, and some parts simply didn't match up.

It seems that this Contract Master's Manual is still incomplete; it's just unknown where the rest is.

A dark light flashed in Feng Jiutian's eyes. He lowered his gaze slightly and became engrossed in his comprehension.

Xuanji Zi watched silently without saying a word.

At this point, he couldn't offer any help at all; he could only watch and let Feng Jiutian try to understand on his own.

However, he could keenly sense that Feng Jiutian's strength was increasing significantly, and the surrounding spiritual energy was becoming increasingly dense.

It seems I need to figure it out.

Xuanji Zi thought to herself.

Sure enough, not long after, the surrounding spiritual energy suddenly surged and rapidly flowed into Feng Jiutian's body.

Feng Jiutian sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, chanting incantations as his hands gradually formed a strange hand gesture.

A golden contract array suddenly appeared out of thin air on the ground, more complex and more dazzling than before.

Feng Jiutian suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the contract array. His eyes showed fatigue, but even more so, excitement.

She finally succeeded in comprehending the Contract Array!

This is the contract array of a contracted demon. Although it took a lot of time, I finally managed to comprehend it.

Feng Jiutian clenched his fists tightly, feeling the boiling spiritual energy within his body and the increase in his strength.

After months of stagnation, such a significant improvement suddenly excited even Feng Jiutian.

"What's this!"

A panicked voice suddenly appeared in Feng Jiutian's mind.

Feng Jiutian blinked. "This is a contract formation for a contracted demon."

Although the tone was flat, it carried a hint of schadenfreude.

You should know that snow foxes are also demons.

As expected, the snow fox fell into an eerie silence after hearing this, while Feng Jiutian heard a few squeaking sounds above his head.

The snow fox looked at the golden array on the ground with some fear. The tremor from the depths of its soul made it unable to speak, and all it wanted to do was submit.

This is the oppressive force of heaven and earth!

Snow Fox was secretly shocked, not expecting that Feng Jiutian would actually use a contract formation with the pressure of heaven and earth.

After a long while, it suddenly made a decision.

"Form a contract with me, otherwise this formation will be wasted," the snow fox said without the slightest hesitation.

Feng Jiutian lifted the snow fox from his head and into his arms, saying softly, "No need. This formation is only for comprehension purposes."

Demons are all proud and arrogant, as can be seen from the snow fox. It rarely takes the initiative to talk to Feng Jiutian unless Feng Jiutian is in danger.
