The blinding white light from the screening room had not yet completely faded from my retina.
Aren suddenly sat up from the creaking wooden bed.
His chest heaved violently, as if his heart was about to jump out of his throat, and his whole body trembled slightly with uncontrollable ecstasy.
"What the hell! What the hell! What the hell!"
Aren almost exclaimed as he called up the system panel that only he could see.
[Emotional value balance: 48,800 points! ]
"Forty-eight thousand eight hundred points...?"
He stared at the numbers on the panel, his eyes almost popped out, and he rubbed his eyes quickly, unable to believe that he was not seeing things.
Then, a huge surprise came.
"I made a fortune! I made a fortune! I really made a fortune this time!"
The harvest from the second dream far exceeded his imagination.
Aren originally estimated that even if the content of the dream was upgraded, it would be good enough to earn an emotion value of just over 10,000 this time.
After all, I only got more than 6,000 points the first time.
However, he never expected that the appearance of Minato and Kushina would trigger such violent emotional fluctuations, and his emotional value directly showed an explosive growth.
Especially Kakashi.
That guy is simply a walking super emotional value ATM.
And Naruto.
During the whole dream, although the boy was laughing foolishly most of the time, in the end he actually got a special reward for fulfilling his dream, and earned a full 10,000 points in one go!
Although Sasuke and Sakura's contributions are not much, a small amount is still meat, and it is better than nothing. A little bit adds up to a lot.
Hehehehe…
He is one step closer to his ultimate goal of exchanging for the Rinnegan, the Otsutsuki bloodline, and even helping the uncle to open ramen restaurants all over the ninja world.
"Calm down! Calm down!"
Aren shook his head violently, forcing himself to calm down from his ecstasy.
"Now is not the time to pop the champagne!"
"No matter how much emotion I accumulate, if I don't quickly convert it into strength, it will just be a bunch of numbers that can be wiped out at any time if I die!"
Aren knew better than anyone how dangerous the ninja world he was currently in was.
The death rate here is definitely at the top of the list among all the worlds.
Without sufficient strength, there is no sense of security.
Not to mention protecting his own little piece of land, I'm afraid he can't even save his life.
"We must quickly convert all the points into combat power!"
A hint of determination flashed in Aren's eyes, and with an idea, he reopened the dazzling mall interface.
On the interface, all kinds of exchange options are clearly displayed: blood limit, ninjutsu scrolls, physical skills, props and equipment, special abilities...
Aren simply skipped over the absurdly expensive Kekkei Genkai section and clicked on the "Ninjutsu" and "Special Abilities" columns.
"Last time, I randomly awarded three types of chakra affinities: water, lightning, and yang..."
Aren stroked his chin and pondered, "Yang attribute is mainly biased towards auxiliary medical treatment, which can speed up recovery, but lacks offensive means. So... at this stage, the focus should still be on water escape and lightning escape."
Just as he was about to carefully select from the long list of ninjutsu like he did last time——
A shiny new icon suddenly popped up in the upper right corner of the interface!
The icon flashed with cool dynamic fonts: "This week's sale! Limited time discount! Don't miss it!"
"Damn, there is such a good thing?!"
Aren's eyes lit up and he clicked on the promotion icon without hesitation.
Swish!
A new mall page popped up.
There were several tempting special gift packages listed on the page, each with a conspicuous label such as "Limited time discount" or "Buy and you'll make a profit".
Aren looked at the dazzling array of gift packages with great interest.
[Wood Release Entry Pack: Feel the power of the Thousand Hands of the Forest! Contains "Wood Release: Tree World Advent (Trial Version)", "Wood Release: Wood Clone Technique (LV1)", "Wood Release: Four Pillars Technique (LV1)", and can slightly increase Wood Release Chakra affinity! Limited time special offer: 88,888 points of emotion value! ]
"What the hell! Wood Release... Wait, 88000?!"
Aren almost drooled.
"I don't have the Wood Release bloodline, so I can't use it even if I buy it... Damn it, I'm dying of greed! Damn system, it just keeps me on edge!"
He forced his reluctant gaze away and continued reading.
[Uchiha Fire Style Mastery Pack: Let the world feel the art of fire! Contains "Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique (LV1)", "Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique (LV1)", "Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique (LV1)", and additionally gives Uchiha Style: Shuriken Throwing Technique (LV1) (Note: It works better when used with the Sharingan). Limited time special offer: 50,000 emotion points! ]
"Fire Style... Uchiha... Still not working, can't use it. Next one!"

"Tsk...it looks like I won't be able to get the promotional gift pack this week."
Aren was about to close the promotion page in disappointment, and go back to the list of ninjutsu to slowly select, but suddenly found that there was a page-turning button on the interface.
His heart moved and he quickly switched to the next page.
Upon seeing this, his originally depressed eyes suddenly became extremely hot.
His eyes were fixed on the first gift package after turning the page.
[Water Style: Mist Hidden Demonic Person Pack: Silent killing intent from the blood mist! Control the flow of water and transform into a dark night Shura! Contains "Water Style: Water Prison Technique (LV1)", "Water Style: Water Clone Technique (LV1)", "Water Style: Mist Hidden Technique (LV1)", "Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet Technique (LV1)", "Water Style: Waterfall Technique (LV1)", and comes with the top assassination technique "Silent Killing Technique" (LV1)! Limited time discount price: only 8,000 emotion points! ]
Kirigakure Kito? Zabuza?
The man who almost forced the future Sixth Hokage into a desperate situation in the early part of the original plot?
His signature water escape technique...all of them are here?!
Water Prison Technique! Trap the enemy and win, full control!
Water clones! It's hard to tell the real from the fake, disturbing your vision!
The art of hiding your body and assassination is simply unstoppable!
There are also Water Dragon Bomb and Great Waterfall - two incredibly powerful water-based attack ninjutsu!
What's more important is… this gift pack actually comes with the "silent killing technique"!
You know, Zabuza was weak in the later period only because he died too early in the early stage of the plot.
But his fighting ideas and assassination skills are most in line with the essence of a ninja.
If this set of abilities is cultivated to the level of "Sea Escape" like Tobirama Senju...
Wow, this gift package seems to be tailor-made for Aren!
And this price...
If you buy them individually, the original price is at least 20,000 points, but now the package is only 8,000 points?
Not buying? That's stupid!
"I bought it! I have to buy it!"
Aren was so excited that he could hardly contain himself and clicked the confirmation purchase button without hesitation.
[Ding! Successfully purchased the "Water Style: Mist Hidden Demonic Person Selection Pack", consuming 8000 emotion points. ]
Buzz!
Accompanied by a low roar, a large amount of knowledge about water-style ninjutsu flooded into Aren's mind at an unimaginable speed.
The construction principle of the Water Prison Technique, the tricks of using the chakra of the water clone, the skills of performing the Mist Hidden Technique, the order of seals and power control of the Water Dragon Bullet and the Great Waterfall...
In an instant, all the experience and insights from these five water-style ninjutsu turned into instinct and were deeply engraved into his soul.
Not only that, his body seemed to have undergone some subtle changes as well.
A bloodthirsty assassination instinct lurked in his limbs and bones, greatly increasing his sensitivity to the surrounding breath, sounds, and light.
How to sneak silently in silence, how to take lives in darkness...
Even though his "Silent Killing Technique" was only at Level 1, he had already mastered the invisible murderous intent.
After getting the Water Style gift pack, Aren immediately turned his attention to the Lightning Style promotional pack.
[Lightning Release: Lightning Bolt Starter Pack: As fast as lightning, attack by surprise! Contains "Lightning Release: Ground Movement (LV1)", "Lightning Release: Discharge (LV1)", and "Lightning Release: Chakra Flow (LV1)", limited time special offer: 3000 emotion points! ]
"I need some Lightning Release as well." Aren grinned and muttered, "Ground Walking can paralyze the enemy at a medium distance, Discharge is suitable for close-range sneak attacks, and Lightning Release Chakra Flow can be attached to weapons or enhance physical skills... Although it's just an entry-level package, 3,000 points is not expensive, so I'll buy it!"
[Ding! Successfully purchased the "Lightning Release: Lightning Flash Starter Pack", consuming 3000 emotion points. ]
In an instant, the knowledge about the application of Thunder Release flooded into his mind.
After a moment, Aren slowly opened his eyes and let out a long breath.
Now, his emotional value balance is: 37,800 points.
