Chapter 25 Tang Clan Charm, Cultural Tourism Town
Shrek Academy.
The legendary academy in "Douluo Continent" is the place that nurtured the Shrek Seven Devils, a legend in the world of soul masters.
If I could really go there and experience it...
Lin Yi took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement.
First, build up the credibility.
At the current growth rate, it won't be long before it reaches 150,000.
......
On the day the town went on sale, Lin Yi posted a video on Kuaishou.
In the video, he stands on the main street of Tangmen Town, with rows of Tangmen-style buildings behind him, their gray stone walls, dark brown wooden windows, and roofs with flying eaves and brackets gleaming warmly in the setting sun.
"Qingshi Village Tangmen Style Cultural Tourism Town is officially open for sale."
"A detached house with exquisite decoration in the Tang Dynasty style, featuring a private courtyard and a hot tub."
"Purchase now and receive a free annual pass to the Martial Soul Awakening Experience Hall, an annual pass to the Mountain Forest Trail, and a VIP card to the Herbal Cuisine Restaurant."
"Limited quantity, first come, first served."
At the end of the video, he paused and added:
"In addition, all homebuyers will receive a one-day tour of Shrek Academy."
"You'll find out the details later."
Within an hour of the video being posted, it had received over a million likes.
The comments section exploded.
"Tangmen Town??? Boss, when did you start a town???"
"I checked, and it really is a newly built town! Three hundred detached houses! Right next to Qingshi Village!"
"That's incredibly fast! Just three months ago it was a river valley, and now it's a small town?"
"What the heck is this 'Shrek Academy day trip'? The Shrek Academy from Douluo Continent?"
"Boss, you're not going to take us through time, are you?"
"I'll buy it, whatever it is! How much? Name your price!"
"I'll buy it too! Anything made by Martial Soul Awakening Bro is guaranteed to be top-notch!"
That afternoon, the town's sales center was inundated with calls.
One hundred courtyard houses in Phase 1 were sold out within three days.
The cheapest house sold for 380 million. The most expensive river-view detached house was bought by an entrepreneur introduced by Shen Rongguang for 880 million.
Lin Yi's account saw an increase of nearly 500 million yuan within three days.
When Zhou Xiuying saw the bank's text message, she almost fainted.
Lin Jianguo's hands were trembling as he held the spatula.
They worked hard all their lives running a bed and breakfast, and the money they earned was less than a fraction of this amount.
Lin Yi, on the other hand, remained calm.
With the system at our fingertips, what's five hundred million?
He opened the system and checked his data.
The first phase of the town has sold out, and with the continued accumulation of popularity on Kuaishou during this period, the authenticity has soared to 167000.
It exceeded 150,000.
Popularity score: 1520/2500.
The Nottingham City training experience is less than a thousand views away from opening.
The required 150,000 realism rating for the Shrek City renovation map is already sufficient.
Lin Yi took out the modification diagram that was glowing with a faint purple light from the system and walked towards the central square of the town.
It's time to truly transform this town into the "Tang Clan".
Lin Yi stood in the central square of Tangmen Town, holding in his hand the Shrek City-style renovation map that glowed with a faint purple light.
"Ding! A suitable renovation area has been detected: Tangmen Themed Cultural Tourism Town (312 buildings). Would you like to use the Shrek City themed renovation map?"
"Remodeling".
A pale purple light surged from the drawing, spreading in all directions like a tide.
Unlike previous renovations, this time the area illuminated by the light is astonishingly large. More than 300 buildings, crisscrossing streets, squares, green belts, and river valleys—every inch of space touched by the light has undergone profound and subtle changes.
The renovation lasted for a full six hours.
As the last ray of light faded, Lin Yi stood on the highest observation deck in the town, overlooking this completely transformed land.
The effect of Tangmen Ancient Charm +100 was even more stunning than he had imagined.
The bluestone walls of each courtyard exude a warm, weathered quality, as if they have stood here for centuries. The wooden window frames and doors reveal delicate natural grain patterns, with no two alike. The roofs, with their flying eaves and brackets, flow smoothly like clouds and water, outlining an elegant skyline in the twilight.
But the most amazing thing is not the architecture itself, but the atmosphere of the whole town.
Walking down the street, you unconsciously slow down. The air is filled with the faint scent of grass and trees and the fragrance of unknown flowers. Taking a deep breath, you feel calm and focused. The distant birdsong, the rustling of leaves in the wind, the solid feel of the bluestone slabs under your feet—every sense is gently soothed.
This is the effect of Soul Power Nourishment +80.
Although the value is one level lower than the +100 for mountain trails, the vast area covering the entire town makes this nourishing effect more lasting and profound. Ordinary people who stay here for a few days will experience noticeable improvements in both their physical and mental well-being.
The +100 inspiration boost effect is also quietly taking effect.
On the town's commercial street, Su Qing's pottery workshop branch has opened. The day after this national-level master moved into the town, he created three new works, each of which amazed him.
"Boss Lin, this town of yours is strange," Su Qing said to Lin Yi half-jokingly. "I've been here for two days, and I've had more inspiration in my head than in the past two years combined. If this keeps up, I'm going to move my entire studio here."
Lin Yi smiled and said, "Welcome."
Xia Tian and Xiao Mei were among the first "tourists" to experience the renovated town.
The two walked from one end of town to the other, filming footage for a full three hours.
"Boss, how did you build this town?" Xia Tian asked, holding up a selfie stick, her voice filled with disbelief. "I've been to many cultural and tourist towns, like Nianhua Bay, Wuzhen, and Gubei Water Town, but none of them gave me this feeling. Every stone and every tile here seems to have always been there. It wasn't built; it 'grew' out."
Lin Yi did not answer the question.
He simply pointed to the square in the center of town: "There's a Shrek Academy statue over there, go take a look."
Xia Tian followed his finger and her eyes lit up.
In the center of the square stands a group of bronze statues.
Seven boys and one girl, each with a unique posture and radiant spirit. In the very center stood a boy wielding the Blue Silver Grass martial spirit, his eyes resolute; beside him was a chubby boy clutching a chicken leg; and a cool-looking boy with the faint phantom of a white tiger behind him…
The Shrek Seven Devils.
Although Xia Tian wasn't a die-hard fan of "Douluo Continent," she had watched the anime and recognized the characters at a glance.
"Oh my god! Tang San! Xiao Wu! Dai Mubai! Oscar!" She excitedly ran over and started snapping photos of the statues. "Boss, when did you get this? It's so cool!"
The viewers in the live stream were also excited.
"Statues of the Shrek Seven Devils! That's so nostalgic!"
"I have to go check in! I absolutely have to!"
"This Martial Soul Awakening guy is definitely a die-hard Douluo Continent fan; this tribute is perfect!"
Lin Yi stood in front of the statue, looking up at Tang San's bronze statue, but his mind was on something else entirely.
