In Doulou With The Dionysian System

"How should we protect our auxiliary spirit masters on the battlefield, first of all…"

"Gulp… Gulp… Gulp…"

At Tiandou Royal Academy, Teacher Qin Ming, responsible for advanced class instruction, was writing on the blackboard. Upon hearing the gurgling sounds behind him, his face twitched in irritation.

"Although I know I might get beaten up for this, as a teacher, I can't ignore it!"

Blue veins bulged on Qin Ming's forehead as he turned around, roaring, "Lu Yuan! No drinking during class!"

The room instantly fell silent. All eyes were on the figure in the corner, holding a wine jar and carrying a long sword on his back.

"Did Mr. Qin Ming drink too much himself? How could he have the nerve to say that?"

"He must've forgotten what happened to the last teacher. Remember when Lu Yuan chased that poor guy through three streets after class?"

"Oh no, the teacher's going to get beaten again!"

Whispers broke out across the room, as many students broke out in a nervous sweat for Qin Ming. Everyone feared the class's overlord—Lu Yuan, the boy with the wine jar.

"Gulp… Gulp… Gulp… hiccup!"

"What's that noise?"

Lu Yuan, clearly tipsy, hiccupped and looked around with glazed eyes.

"Gulp…" Qin Ming swallowed nervously.

"Um… I meant to say drinking is harmful to your health! You're still young, so focus on your studies!"

Too hasty! Way too hasty! Qin Ming regretted his words immediately. Lu Yuan was a real alcoholic. On his first day at Tiandou Royal Academy, he showed up drunk. In fact, no one had ever seen him sober.

More terrifying was Lu Yuan's strength! In his first year, when he was only eight years old, he knocked the academy's top disciple to the ground. Now, at nearly twelve, no one dared to mess with him, despite being the youngest in the advanced class.

"Stop drinking? That's impossible!" Lu Yuan grinned, lifting the wine jar to his lips.

"Gulp, gulp…"

Ding!

Detected that the host is slightly intoxicated. First spirit ring age +10.

"Gulp, gulp…"

Ding!

Detected that the host is healthy. Second spirit ring age +10.

Yes, Lu Yuan was a transmigrator. When his Martial Soul was awakened at the age of six, a system called "Bacchus" came with it. The more he drank, the stronger he became!

"Gulp, gulp, gulp…"

Lu Yuan continued to drink freely until he finished an entire jar. He shook the empty container, his face puzzled.

"Hiccup… it's empty?"

Reaching into his Soul Guidance Device, he pulled out another jar. Shook it—empty. Then another—empty again.

Qin Ming stared, exasperated. How much can this guy drink?

"Lu… Lu Yuan, I have some wine here," a sweet-looking girl with short silver-gray hair said, holding a jar of wine in both hands and offering it to him.

Lu Yuan's eyes lit up at the sight of the jar. He took it eagerly and poured it into his mouth.

"Gulp, gulp, gulp…"

"Huh? What's your name? Want a drink?" he asked, smiling.

"Lingling, Ye Lingling."

"Lingling, cute name. Nice to meet you. I'll treat you to drinks tonight."

"Lu Yuan… big brother, we just ate together yesterday… and the day before… and the day before that…" Ye Lingling's voice grew quieter as she spoke. Despite being a few years older than Lu Yuan, he always called her "big brother" when drunk and forgot her name.

"Haha… really? Well then, tonight we'll do it… t-t-t… like usual!" Lu Yuan said, throwing an arm around her.

"Lu Yuan… Big Brother, we're still in class," Ye Lingling whispered, her face bright red. She was completely embarrassed, especially with the entire class watching.

"Lu Yuan! Not only are you drinking in class, but now you're harassing a female classmate! As class monitor, I can't let this slide!" a voice shouted from the back.

Yu Tianheng, with his long golden hair, slammed his hand on the desk and stood up, unable to bear it any longer. Four years ago, he had his sights set on Dugu Yan, but Lu Yuan appeared out of nowhere, stole her away, and beat him up. Recently, Yu Tianheng had fallen for Ye Lingling, the team's auxiliary spirit master, but Lu Yuan was once again in his way. And today, Lu Yuan dared to show affection to her right in front of him!

"This is unbearable!" he shouted, walking aggressively towards Lu Yuan. Three spirit rings appeared around his body.

Everyone in the room felt a chill run down their spines.

"Does the captain have a death wish?" one student muttered.

"Is he picking a fight with Lu Yuan again? Last time he barely survived!" another said.

"Captain made a breakthrough recently… maybe he thinks he can win this time," someone else whispered.

Though Yu Tianheng was one of the academy's strongest students, Lu Yuan was in a league of his own.

Boom!

In a flash, Lu Yuan's fist connected with Yu Tianheng's head, sending him crashing to the ground, feet in the air. A nearby desk shattered from the impact.

Seeing Lu Yuan prepare for another punch, Yu Tianheng quickly pulled out a jar of fine wine from his Soul Guidance Device and presented it with both hands.

"Here! Please, take it!" he pleaded.

Lu Yuan sniffed the jar, a satisfied smile forming on his lips.

"Ahh, good wine!" he said, accepting it. "For the sake of this drink, I'll let you go today."

Over the years, Lu Yuan had learned that the higher the quality of the drink, the more generous the system's rewards.

Everyone in the room exhaled, stunned by how easily Yu Tianheng was defeated. And Lu Yuan hadn't even drawn the long sword on his back. How powerful was this guy?

Amid the shock, Lu Yuan returned to his seat, his face already flushed with drunkenness again.

"Gulp, gulp, gulp…"

Ding!

Detected that the host is fully intoxicated. Soul power level +1.
