1: Chapter 1 Rebirth!

Whoosh!

Ye Qing opened his eyes abruptly, staring at the ceiling before him. He had just dreamt of the scenes before his Rebirth again!

That Divine-Grade sword with Sword Qi like a Dragon!

That giant cauldron that could bring the dead back to life!

That green lotus with thirty-six petals!

And that giant beast that blotted out the sky!

The dream was still as real as reality itself!

In that world-shaking battle, a King-level Expert held a divine weapon and fought the giant beast until the heavens crumbled and the earth split!

As a small fry like him, naturally, he could not escape the fate of being crushed into meat paste.

But fortunately, he had Rebirth-ed decades ago, returning to this apocalypse.

In the hundred years since the apocalypse descended, humanity has built Barriers to defend against exotic beasts!

Furthermore!

Young Women can incarnate into tools, weapons, etc. Initial Incarnations are divided into F, E, D... SSS Ranks. Besides the initial Incarnation, they can also undergo Ancestral Return!

With every Ancestral Return, Young Women can incarnate into weapons or tools from the Wuxia period, the ancient era, or even further back!

Their strength will also increase accordingly!

Correspondingly, although males cannot incarnate, they Cultivate themselves more rapidly. There are Ranks from one to nine, Rank-Breaking, Grandmaster, Town General, Marquis, and King-level Realm, with Early, Middle, and Late Stage divisions for each Rank.

Males and females can both fight alone, but there is no boost to their strength!

If a male utilizes a contracted spirit, they can achieve an effect where one plus one is far greater than two.

Ye Qing thought to himself, staring blankly at the campus outside.

At this moment, inside the campus, quite a few people were discussing him.

"Have you heard? That pretty impressive first year combination in our university has disbanded?"

"Heard about it, Ye Qing and Wang Tingting, right."

"If you ask me, they should have disbanded long ago. That Wang Tingting can take the Incarnation of a Flying Dagger, while Ye Qing just stands there watching Wang Tingting fight every time. What use is he?"

"The key is that I heard they split their final wealth fifty-fifty. Is this Ye Qing a vampire? He eats soft rice so comfortably, doing absolutely nothing in the fighting, yet still wants to take half the benefits?"

"By the way, what is Ye Qing's strength? We don't even know Ye Qing's strength yet."

"Heh, how strong could he be? I, for one, have never seen him show his own strength. According to Wang Tingting, she does all the fighting during battles, and that guy just stands there."

"Don't think about it. Wang Tingting is a B-Rank contracted spirit. Although she hasn't undergone Ancestral Return yet, she's still pretty good. If Ye Qing had decent strength, Wang Tingting wouldn't have terminated the Contract."

"I saw the scene when they terminated the Contract that day. Tsk tsk, it was too ruthless. The words were too harsh. Wang Tingting must have already found a new partner; it's the classic 'first sword after going ashore' move."

"However, that guy Ye Qing is living quite comfortably now, staying in a single-occupancy dormitory. It's much more comfortable than ours."

"It looks like it has already spread outside." Ye Qing thought, letting out a cold sneer.

After his Rebirth, he turned a misfortune into a blessing and accidentally activated the Many Children, Much Blessing Sign-in System.

Thinking this, he pulled up the System's personal information page.

[Many Children, Much Blessing Sign-in System] [Name: Ye Qing] [Height: 185cm] [Age: 20] [Spirit Master Rank: Second Rank Late Stage] [Contracted Spirit: None] [Skill: God-Tier Hunting Skill] [Note: The Host can sign in at irregular intervals to obtain ordinary rewards. Contracts, contracted spirit pregnancy and childbirth, etc., can all yield Divine-Grade rewards! Furthermore, it shortens the time for contracted spirit Ancestral Return!]

Ye Qing looked at his System and felt quite a headache.

After all, in this world, although theoretically one Spirit Master can Contract multiple contracted spirits, adding even one more increases the burden on the body exponentially. Especially with high-Rank contracted spirits, it increases by nearly a hundred or a thousand times!

Therefore, most people only Contract one contracted spirit! They Contract the highest-Rank contracted spirit they are capable of!

And his System requires him to Contract multiple contracted spirits. But if he were to Contract multiple, it would mean that the multiple contracted spirits would all be of extremely low Rank, with almost no combat power!

Furthermore, although it can shorten the time for Ancestral Return, even for high-Rank contracted spirits, Ancestral Return is extremely difficult, taking years or even over a decade to occur once.

Let alone low-Rank ones; they might never undergo Ancestral Return in their lifetime! Even if they do, there is a high probability they will still be trash contracted spirits!

This is a dead end! This is also the reason why, even after his Rebirth and possessing such a System, he had only Contracted one contracted spirit.

Thinking of Wang Tingting, Ye Qing let out a cold snort. The scene of Wang Tingting terminating the Contract with him that day was still vivid in his mind. She probably still thinks that she was the one who managed to find the weak points and kill the exotic beasts in one blow so many times.

After standing by the window for a while, Ye Qing felt tired and walked towards his room.

Little did he know. In the distance, a Young Woman was watching him by the window.

The Young Woman had a slender figure and wore a form-fitting white dress.

At this moment, she looked at Ye Qing, her pearly teeth gently biting her cherry lips, hesitation on her face.

Ever since her parents were buried in the jaws of the Grandmaster-level exotic beast, the Titan Python. Although she was not a student, she had been lingering in the school.

All for the sake of a Contract!

She knew that if she couldn't Contract a Spirit Master while in school and was expelled, as an F-Rank contracted spirit who had never undergone Ancestral Return, she would fall to the very bottom of society within the Barrier, making it even more impossible to Contract.

How could she even talk about avenging her parents!

She recalled the news she heard about Ye Qing and Wang Tingting disbanding, looked at the single-occupancy dormitory in front of her, and walked over.

Then, she knocked on the door!

Creak. Opening the door, Ye Qing saw Zhou Lingxue.

At this moment, due to nervousness, her hands were clutching the hem of her skirt, looking shy and hesitant to speak. She was truly pitiful to behold!

However, as Ye Qing looked at her face, his heart suddenly jolted! This! Zhou Lingxue?!

She was in the top five of the artifact spirit ranking list before his Rebirth, and after multiple Ancestral Return-s, she became the divine sword he saw before his death! He knew the artifact spirit ranking list from his previous life by heart! There was absolutely no way he could be wrong!

On this side, seeing Ye Qing not speaking, Zhou Lingxue looked up at him, "Hello, my contracted spirit is an f-rank tetanus blade... can we be together?"

Zhou Lingxue spoke rather cryptically, but the meaning was expressed very clearly.

f-rank tetanus blade? Ye Qing narrowed his eyes. He didn't expect that the divine weapon of the future was actually just a small, broken F-Rank blade right now!

He thought about his System and the dead end! Now, it was perfectly resolved!

Ye Qing suppressed the excitement in his heart. "Come in first."

This! Zhou Lingxue's heart skipped a beat.

"However!" Ye Qing's next sentence pulled her back to reality.

"For the two of us to demonstrate our strength, we need to increase our Contract level. You understand what I mean. If you are willing, we will be together; if you are not..."

Zhou Lingxue also gripped her skirt tightly, her face turning somewhat pale; the joy from just a moment ago was washed away.

Of course, she knew what Ye Qing was talking about.

At this moment, Ye Qing looked at her and slowly closed the door, though the speed of closing the door was overly slow.

Just as the door was about half closed, a small hand grabbed the corner of Ye Qing's clothes.

Zhou Lingxue said with a trembling voice, "I... I agree."
