"Ah... ah... Little Demon, what should I do now?" Qin Tian couldn't bear Little Demon's gaze any longer and quickly changed the subject with the "Heaven and Earth Shift," but he truly didn't know what to do. Ever since he entered here, his brain had been in a short circuit.

Little Demon gave Qin Tian a slightly pouting look and said, "Master, you only have 10 points now. I don't recommend learning skills, as beginner skills are not very useful and rarely help you at this stage. The quests are still being set up and will take at least three days before you can claim them. So, you can try your luck with the lottery first. If you're lucky, you might get a high-level skill, or even a Master-level medical skill, which could solve your immediate problems."

"Alright, I'll listen to you. Let's try the lottery then." Qin Tian thought about Little Demon's words carefully and found them reasonable. He also harbored a bit of hope, so he agreed.

"Okay, then let's start the grand lottery." Little Demon waved her little hand, and a wheel appeared in front of Qin Tian. It was densely packed with at least a hundred skills. Most were beginner or intermediate level, a few were advanced or Master level, and only a handful were Grandmaster level. There was only one God-level skill: Insight.

"Little Demon, with just these skills, won't I be at a disadvantage in future lotteries?" Qin Tian looked at the wheel, puzzled. Although there were many skills, they were far fewer compared to the skill list Little Demon had shown him. If the lottery only included these skills, Qin Tian felt he would be at a great disadvantage.

"That's not the case. The skills and levels that appear in the lottery are random, all depending on your luck," Little Demon explained, seeing the unsatisfied look on Qin Tian's face.

"Oh, I see. It seems the Goddess of Fortune is still looking after me. There's even a God-level skill. Let's strike while the iron is hot. Let's do the lottery now and see how my luck is." Qin Tian, excited, said after hearing Little Demon's explanation.

"Alright, when you say 'start,' I'll spin the wheel. When you feel it's time, shout 'stop,' and it will stop automatically. The pointer will land where your luck takes you. Are you ready?" Little Demon asked, explaining the process.

Qin Tian took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and calmed his excited heart. Suddenly, he shouted loudly, "Start!" The wheel began to spin abruptly.

Qin Tian watched the pointer spinning rapidly, occasionally passing over the only God-level skill, Insight. His heart raced; this was the skill he most wanted. Although he didn't know what Insight did, it was a God-level skill, so it must be the best.

As the pointer spun, Qin Tian felt his blood rush to his head, and his breathing quickened. "Stop! ... Stop now!" Every time the pointer passed Insight, Qin Tian shouted in his heart, hoping it would stop there, but it wasn't up to him.

Finally, the pointer slowed down, moving inch by inch. Qin Tian's heart was even more tense. It passed beginner driving, intermediate medical skills, and beginner calligraphy, and finally stopped on Insight. Qin Tian let out a deep breath, feeling drained. He was about to boast to Little Demon when he noticed the pointer hadn't completely stopped. It was still inching forward, about to leave the Insight area and move to beginner English.

"Ding, the lottery is over."

A clear chime sounded, and the wheel disappeared in a flash of white light. Qin Tian was conflicted because the pointer was right between Insight and beginner English, and he couldn't tell which side it was closer to.

"Little Demon, which one is it?" Qin Tian asked, puzzled.

Little Demon, who had never seen this situation before, was also at a loss. She bit her finger, tilted her head, and thought for a moment. "I've never seen this before. Let's zoom in and see which side it's closer to." She then closed her eyes and used the system to observe.

Seeing Little Demon's expression, Qin Tian felt a glimmer of hope and silently prayed to all the gods. The few seconds felt like several centuries to him.

"Well, what is it? What is it? Hurry up and tell me."

As soon as Little Demon opened her eyes, Qin Tian eagerly asked.

Little Demon gave Qin Tian a big pout before saying, "According to the system's final judgment, the pointer is 5 nanometers closer to Insight than to beginner English. Therefore, the final reward is the God-level skill: Insight!!!"

As she spoke, a beam of white light shot from Little Demon's hand into Qin Tian's mind.

At that moment, Qin Tian heard a beautiful voice in his head.

"Ding, congratulations, host, you have obtained the God-level skill: [Insight]"

"Ah... ah... Great... Yes... ah..."

Hearing that he had obtained Insight, Qin Tian jumped for joy. His happiness was indescribable. Seeing Little Demon nearby, he couldn't help but hug her, forgetting her manipulative nature. After all, Little Demon's innocent appearance was very deceptive. The result was...

The last "ah" was a cry of pain as Qin Tian lost his balance and fell to the ground, making intimate contact with the floor.

"Ha... ha..."

Seeing Qin Tian's狼狈样子, Little Demon couldn't help but laugh, and the room was filled with her silver laughter, mixed with a few groans of pain from Qin Tian.

After a long while, Qin Tian finally got up, holding his sore parts and muttering, "Little Demon, I got the Insight skill, but how do I use it?"

Little Demon gave Qin Tian another pout but didn't stop his lewd actions. She explained, "It's a special skill. Just look at the object you want to observe and silently say 'Insight.'"

"Oh, that's simple. Let me try."

Qin Tian silently said "Insight" in his mind. A small image appeared before his eyes, with the words [Insight] and a description.

[Insight]: God-level skill, can perceive the essence of all things.

The description was simple, but the content was powerful. Qin Tian looked around and repeated "Insight" several times in his mind, but nothing happened. He became anxious and asked Little Demon, "Why isn't it working?"

Little Demon gave him another pout. "This is the system space. What can you see here? It's no wonder [Insight] isn't working. You need to go outside to use it."

Qin Tian realized that Little Demon seemed to enjoy giving him pouts. Although her expression was alluring, he shivered at the thought of her manipulative nature. "I'll pass. I want to live a few more years," he muttered to himself.

What made Qin Tian even more frustrated was that Little Demon's pouts were often laced with contempt.

"Contempt, my sister. I just asked a few questions. Do you have to look down on me?"

Qin Tian thought to himself, annoyed.

"Alright, I'll send you out first. If you want to come back, just think about it. If you need me, just call my name in your mind."

"Who wants to come back? This place is so pale and sterile, like a lab. I don't want to come here," Qin Tian thought to himself after hearing Little Demon's words.

A flash of white light enveloped Qin Tian, and he instinctively closed his eyes. It wasn't because the light was blinding, but an instinctive reaction. When the light disappeared, Qin Tian found himself back in the small forest.

Looking at the familiar surroundings, Qin Tian felt like he was in a dream. But the torn clothes and the surging power reminded him that everything was real.

"Phew... From now on, I'm no longer the old Qin Tian. The world will change because of me."

Qin Tian declared to the moon, feeling a surge of confidence.

A cold wind blew, and Qin Tian shivered, realizing he was still naked. The few rags he had were blown away, fluttering into the distance.

"Um... The most urgent thing now is to go home and change clothes. Being naked isn't a good idea. Luckily, there's no one around, or I'd be famous," Qin Tian's confidence vanished. He looked around, confirmed no one was there, and hurried home, head down, like a thief.

The forest fell silent again, leaving only a few rags scattered by the wind.
