Universe's Ultimate BOSS

"Ugh… my head hurts!"

Wang Hao rubbed his head. He couldn't remember how many bottles of beer he had been forced to drink last night.

"Hmm… wait, where is this place?!"

When Wang Hao opened his sleepy eyes, what he saw was not his familiar room, but a laboratory filled with various chemical instruments like test tubes, alcohol lamps, and measuring cups.

"Am I dreaming?!"

Wang Hao looked bewildered. Last night, he had been drinking with a few colleagues. Surely, those guys wouldn't have thrown him in a laboratory?

Could it be that these guys were jealous of his good looks and envied his superior work skills, harboring resentment and planning to dissect him?!

"This is…"

When Wang Hao looked at his hands, he was completely stunned. Not only did his hands look small, but they were also so fair, almost like a woman's hands.

"Ugh…"

Suddenly, a flood of unfamiliar memories surged into his mind, causing Wang Hao to break out in a cold sweat from the pain.

As the two sets of memories intertwined, Wang Hao was completely bewildered.

He had traveled through time?!

He had really traveled through time!

And this world was very different from his original world. Although there were high-tech products here, they were incredibly advanced, making space travel seem as ordinary as taking a train.

The most incredible thing was that there was a complete cultivation system here, where breaking stars with a punch and stepping across the heavens with a kick were really achievable.

However, because of the existence of this cultivation system, strength was revered here—the strong ruled, the aristocrats governed, and the commoners could only submit unconditionally.

"Ding-dong, the Great Villain System has successfully activated, commencing distribution of the newbie starter pack," a mechanical voice echoed in Wang Hao's mind.

"System? Newbie starter pack?!"

Wang Hao was initially stunned, then immediately replaced by excitement. It was a system, the ultimate cheat for those who had traveled through time.

He was indeed a man favored by the heavens, uh, a man beloved by the heavens, destined to stand at the pinnacle of the universe.

"Wait, what is the name of this system? The Great Villain System?!" Once Wang Hao snapped back to reality, he had a very bad feeling.

"Who cares what it's called, let's check the newbie pack first." Wang Hao shook his head, summoned the system in his mind, and opened the newbie starter pack.

"Ding-dong, congratulations to the host on acquiring one Skill Upgrade Card (Peak Perfection)."

"Ding-dong, congratulations to the host on acquiring one Level 1 Potential Pill."

"Ding-dong, congratulations to the host on acquiring the Martial Radiance Heavenly Demon Skill."

"Ding-dong, congratulations to the host on acquiring one Resurrection Golden Coin."

Hearing the delightful sounds echoing in his ears, Wang Hao couldn't stop smiling. This newbie starter pack was quite the treasure trove!

He clicked on the newbie equipment to check, and Wang Hao took a deep breath, finding it incredibly luxurious and exaggerated.

Skill Upgrade Card (Peak Perfection): Upon use, it could instantly enhance one of the host's martial skills to Peak Perfection.

Level 1 Potential Pill: Upon consumption, it could unleash the body's initial potential, allowing rapid cultivation breakthroughs without side effects, so there was no need to worry about an unstable foundation.

Martial Radiance Heavenly Demon Skill: A divine skill jointly created by eighteen God Demons, it possessed extraordinarily marvelous effects.

Resurrection Golden Coin: Activates automatically upon death, fully reviving the user with the added benefit of Heavenly God Possession, allowing divine intervention to slay gods and knock back Buddhas, lasting ten days.

After reading through, Wang Hao was at a loss for words. Just looking at the first Skill Upgrade Card, he felt like he was going mad.

It's known that martial skills were the means by which a martial artist attacked, divided into four stages: initial insight, mastery, peak perfection, and transcendence.

Achieving the initial insight stage was very easy; one could do it by just following the gourd and learning it until skilled.

However, wanting to achieve mastery took some effort; it was practically impossible to do so otherwise.

But reaching peak perfection required not only continuous day-and-night cultivation but also an extraordinary talent to grasp. Yet now, just by lightly activating this upgrade card, he could instantly achieve peak perfection. It was unbelievably simple.

As for transcendence, only a first-generation grandmaster could master this level; without decades of honing, intense cultivation, and practice, there's no hope of mastering it.

Among the four pieces of newbie equipment, the item Wang Hao found most exhilarating was the Resurrection Golden Coin, which could not only revive him upon death but also provide Heavenly God Possession to rampage across the land; more terrifyingly, it lasted ten days.

This made Wang Hao want to go out immediately and arrogantly shout: Who the hell is coming to chop me?!

"Calm down, calm down..."

Wang Hao steadied his pounding heart. This was not the time to get excited. He needed to understand what exactly this Great Villain System was.

"Host, what is your understanding of villains?" the system inquired.

Wang Hao thought for a moment and lightly said, "Actually, when it comes down to it, there's no real difference between heroes and villains; everything they do is to survive better. The only difference is that the hero's ideology gains societal recognition, while the villain's ideology is acknowledged only by a few."

"As expected from the host selected amidst the myriad star systems, truly hitting the mark," the system felt gratified. "The Great Villain System's purpose is to nurture the host into a clothed beast whom some batter, a fierce demon whom some fear, a debonair rogue whom some curse, a shrewd deceiver whom some hate, and a hypocrite whom some trust—a role misunderstood by society and condemned by the world."

For the next few minutes, the entire laboratory was silent…

"Screw you, are you kidding me? I was the Little Red Flower awardee in kindergarten, the darling child in every parent's heart, the role model in everyone's eyes, the class officer praised by teachers, the 24-carat boyfriend cherished by beauties… And I've always survived on looks. If I worked hard, I could leave a glorious legacy, but you actually want me to live in infamy. Do you think I don't care about my reputation?!"

The system was speechless. Would the system not know Wang Hao's actual character? If he were truly as wonderful as he claimed, the system wouldn't have picked him!

"Uh, this… I feel it might be worth considering…"

Wang Hao suddenly changed his tune, eyeing the exchange menu that appeared before him, unable to suppress a gulp.

Barbaric Saint Scripture, Divine-level, achieves mastery, one punch can destroy the entire Galaxy, priced at 100… Villain Points;

Heavenly God Mecha, Divine-level, upon wearing, one shot can destroy the entire nebula system, priced at 100… Villain Points;

Starry Sky Chain, Divine-level, once mastered, it can lock whoever I want in the universe, priced at 100… Villain Points;

Yin Yang Realm Pen, Divine-level, once mastered, it can resurrect the dead and kill the living by writing their names, priced at 100… Villain Points;

...…

Upon seeing the prices, Wang Hao felt utterly bewildered. Though he didn't understand the endless row of zeros or what these Villain Points were all about!?

Yet he believed within his heart that as long as his willpower remained steadfast and his resolve to open doors was rewarded with rotten eggs, these treasures would eventually be his.

"Oh well, since the world fails to appreciate me, I shall undertake the task of saving the world alone," Wang Hao's eyes sparkled with a touch of solemnity, recalling in his mind the saying: when Heaven is about to confer a great mission upon a person, it must first torment his spirit, exert his muscles, starve his body...

The system felt deeply gratified, proud that it had meticulously selected such a host. How quickly he'd cloaked himself in the guise of righteousness, truly his shamelessness was unrivaled.
