MTL - City Exchange Life Club - Chapter 32 : Praying mantis catches cicada, oriole is behind

Lan Xi made a mistake during her interstellar travel and landed on Earth.

As the princess of Planet Moyi, she decided to save herself. First, solve the money problem.

So she took out the “Guide to Conquering Earthlings 2003 Edition” that experts from Planet Moyi had carefully compiled years ago –

“Chapter 1 How to Elegantly Make Money”:

“Beginner’s Guide: Find a high-end building, take a broken bowl, and sit there for a day to elegantly make enough money to spend for one day.”

However, after sitting bitterly for a day, Lan Xi didn’t make a penny and was driven away by security guards –

“Don’t sit here begging, President Xie already criticized us for negligence! Besides, it’s not that era anymore, beggars use QR codes now!”

No problem, there’s still –

“Intermediate Guide: Find a luxury car, pretend to be hit by it, lie on the ground paralyzed, and you can elegantly make enough money to spend for three months.”

However, before Lan Xi could lie down, a driver got out of the car –

“We have dash cams installed! Move away quickly, President Xie is in a hurry. I’ll sue you if you try this scam again!”

This tactic also failed. But no worries, there’s still –

“Ultimate Guide: Find a rich Earthling, conquer him, marry him, and you can elegantly make enough money to spend for a lifetime.”

Very well, might as well go all out and get it done once and for all!

Lan Xi already had a perfect candidate in mind, the boss of the company she begged at on the first day, the owner of the luxury car – Xie Cheng!

Xie Cheng met a strange beautiful woman.

On the first day, she begged at the door of his company;

On the second day, she staged a car accident scam on him;

On the third day, she blocked him in an alley, with a face of great mercy –

“I really like your money, I hope it becomes mine.”

“So I’ve decided to marry you.”

She coughed –

“Are you going to voluntarily be conquered by me, or be forcibly conquered by me?”

[Story background is Earth in 2023 AD]

Chu Yang, the Ninth Master of the Nine Tribulations Sword, sacrificed almost everything he had for the sake of improving his martial arts, including the love of his life. After spending three years locating the fifth fragment of the Nine Tribulations Sword, he was ambushed by all sides at that very place. Mortally injured with no means of escape, Chu Yang executed a sacrificial technique by plunging the Nine Tribulations Sword into his very own heart. “With the blood of my heart, ten thousand tribulations will collapse!”

After witnessing the death of all his ambushers, Chu Yang’s vision began to darken. At a distance, moments before his death, he saw the mastermind who had plotted his downfall — Mo Tian Ji. With that, his eyes finally closed.

However, with a start, Chu Yang once again awoke to find that he had returned to when he was sixteen years of age! Furthermore, the Sword Spirit of the Nine Tribulations Sword now resided within his Dantian, the energy center of his body! From that very moment, Chu Yang would then begin to right all of his past regrets, and carve his very own legend by fulfilling his destiny as the final Master of the Nine Tribulations Sword, and defeating the Heavenly Devils beyond the realm of the Nine Heavens Continent.

Taking a quick peek into life on normal planet earth, a vicious alien race called the Xollante attacked the planet with their nuclear weapon. But that's not the story...Shortly before the alien attack, the story was based on an orphan boy named Leo Rayden who somehow discovered that he possessed interstellar communication ability. With this ability, he communicated with a being from a planet friendly with Earth. The being told him that he must warn earthlings of the attack from the Xollante race. But Leo saw himself too young and too weak to carry out this assignment. So, neglecting the warning, the Xollante finally arrived on Earth's atmosphere and just like that, Northern Earth became destroyed... The Space Guardians of Earth couldn't stand the almighty Xollante fleet.And to make matters worse, Earth's core became weak and split.But that is still not the story...A second era now was set in place after the nuclear attack. Earth became split from the core after the nuclear attack and slowly, the Northern and the Southern part of earth started drifting apart. The wild Xollante race occupied the North, while the surviving earthlings occupied the South.But now Earth must do everything to destroy the Xollante race and send them away from the planet. And that was when another scheme was set.Earth had discovered a Lone and barren mutant planet called Luxus which gifted earthlings with superpowers. Humans call these superpowers “Quirks”. So, for the grand scheme, Earth's authorities started sending men and women on the planet to become mutated in readiness for the huge war that was looming against the Xollante. Earth was now full of mutants, and soon enough, non-mutants became outcasts in the society. The system only favoured the powerful and scorned the weak. And that was when Leo woke from his coma of 78 years on planet Luxus.And this, guys, is where the story starts...Leo managed to survive the nuclear attack with some strange hidden quirk he didn't know he possessed. When he opened his eyes 78 years later, he was on planet Luxus, being taken care of by his mind communication partner, Loca. But there was no time to frolic. He has to get back to Earth and try to rediscover that powerful quirk that saved him from the nuclear attack. To do this, he must attend Earth's quirk academy to learn all he needs to get stronger. He knew somewhere within him lies the most powerful quirk ever in existence, and his only aim is to rediscover it. He must become stronger, beat earth's power system and one day help the top earth Avengers fight off the Xollante race.But first, he must overcome every obstacle thrown at him from his fellow Earthlings and fellow mutants before he could even think of fighting the aliens.He must attain the highest rank level possible to atone for his sin as a child for not saving Earth when he was informed.His guilt being the major drive, he soon found that the highest rank was within reach of him, but can be pay the price?This story incorporates the use of hi-tech weapons and ancient weapons, and the use of acquired quirks to wield these weapons to victory. It is truly a story about weak-to-strong, action, survival, mutants, adventure, academy and superpowers.A mix of sci-fi and fantasy, yes.And yes again, local beast weapons have been smuggled into sci-fi. Let's deal with it.
