I Break through Crazily

”If one day you fall off a cliff or into a cave, do not panic. Take two steps forward, and perhaps you will become a powerhouse.” —An ancient Ultimate Powerhouse.

Bullshit. Take two steps forward and you’ll fall off an even deeper cliff!

Such were Tang Yi’s cynical thoughts before he fell from the cliff.

...

”Ah!” Tang Yi shot upright, panting heavily. Large beads of sweat dripped continuously from his forehead.

’Huh? Didn’t I jump off a cliff? Could it be...?’ As his senses returned, Tang Yi looked around. His eyes widened in shock, and a wave of wild joy surged through him.

He found himself dressed in a white, long robe, a style completely different from modern clothing. He was lying on a large bed inside a room built in an ancient style. It had no fancy decorations—it was simple, clean, and bore no trace of modern construction.

He’d jumped from a cliff but hadn’t died. He’d appeared in a strange place, wearing strange clothes, inside an ancient-style house.

Instantly, Tang Yi pieced the clues together and reached a conclusion.

He had transmigrated!

”Ah... My head hurts so much!”

While Tang Yi was still trying to process things, a massive stream of information suddenly flooded his mind, causing his head to throb in agony.

After a long while...

The pain finally receded like a tide, and Tang Yi finished processing the information that had poured into his mind.

”Fuck!”

’I really did transmigrate!’

After processing the information, Tang Yi was deeply conflicted, unsure if he should be happy or sad.

The old masters weren’t wrong. Jumping off a cliff really did lead to a miracle. He had transmigrated.

But...

...he had transmigrated into the body of a good-for-nothing.

Just like the opening of most online fantasy novels, the body he now inhabited belonged to a good-for-nothing with no talent who was unable to cultivate.

His name was also Tang Yi, but he was far more handsome than the Tang Yi from his previous life.

Furthermore, he had an incredibly impressive identity: the only son of the Tang Family Patriarch!

His father was a Five-star Battle Grandmaster!

Tang Yi now had a basic understanding of this new world.

This world was called the Saint Martial Continent. The cultivation realms for Martial Artists were divided into ten stages: Battle Disciple, Battle Master, Battle Grandmaster, Battle Spirit, Battle King, Battle Emperor, Battle Supreme Master, Battle Lord, Battle Dominator, and War God. Each stage was further divided into Nine-Stars.

A Five-star Battle Grandmaster might only be the third stage, but reaching that level of strength was incredibly difficult. Some people might strive their entire lives and never achieve it.

In the circle of Noble Families in the Western Domain, Tang Yi’s father was already an incredibly formidable figure.

And yet, he had fathered a good-for-nothing like Tang Yi, a son who was unable to cultivate.

On the Saint Martial Continent, might makes right. If you couldn’t cultivate, you were finished.

”Sigh!”

No matter how much he complained, the situation was what it was. He had transmigrated, become the legitimate son of the Tang Family Patriarch, and was a good-for-nothing who couldn’t cultivate. These were indisputable facts he had to accept.

BUZZZZ~

As if sensing Tang Yi’s frustration, even a fly decided to get involved, buzzing tirelessly around his head.

”Damn it!”

With a wave of his hand, Tang Yi swatted it dead.

DING!

The very instant he killed the fly, a voice suddenly rang in his ears.

’What was that sound?’ Tang Yi glanced around, but he didn’t see anything.

’Did I hear that wrong?’ Tang Yi muttered. ’Or is this whole transmigration thing actually driving me crazy?’

DING!

”Congratulations Player Tang Yi for killing a fly. You have gained 1 Experience Value point and 0 Battle God Value points.”

”Congratulations Player Tang Yi on your first kill. You have been rewarded with 10 Battle God Value points.”

”Congratulations Player Tang Yi on activating the Battle God System. Would you like to view your Attributes?”

”Congratulations Player Tang Yi on successfully activating the system. You have been awarded a Newbie Gift Pack. Would you like to view its contents?”

’What the hell is this?’

The series of melodious prompts ringing in his ears left Tang Yi stunned.

Staring at the fly he’d mercilessly swatted, he felt as if a herd of ten thousand mythical beasts were stampeding through his mind.

’This actually works?’

Getting a golden-finger cheat just for killing a fly? It was completely illogical!

”Yes! Yes! Yes! This is amazing! Amazing!”

Tang Yi was overcome with ecstasy.

’Show me my Attributes!’

DING!

At his thought, an interface appeared in his mind.

Player: Tang Yi

Level: 0

Experience: 1/100

Battle God Value: 10

Cultivation Technique: None

Skill: None

...

Below the main interface, there was a series of grayed-out icons, meaning many more functions were waiting to be activated.

”Hahaha... So it’s a System-style transmigration!”

Staring at his ridiculously overpowered cheat, Tang Yi burst into wild, almost crazed, laughter.

He had played online games.

He had read web novels.

He was even a budding author trying to break into the writing scene.

Of course he was no stranger to the System genre.

When it came to cultivation, cultivation techniques, and alchemy in this strange Otherworld, Tang Yi didn’t have a clue.

But as someone from Earth, he understood online games!

He understood leveling up and grinding mobs!

He understood doing quests and running dungeons!

So what if he had transmigrated into the body of a good-for-nothing?

With the Battle God System, his rise would be meteoric.

In short: with the System in hand, the world was his!

DING!

”Do you wish to claim the Newbie Gift Pack?”

As Tang Yi was reveling in his newfound system, a prompt sounded in his mind. His voice filled with anticipation, he immediately said, ”Claim!”

”Congratulations Player Tang Yi on claiming the Newbie Gift Pack. You have been awarded 900 Experience Value points by the Battle God System.”

”Congratulations Player Tang Yi. You have obtained the Earth-level Lower Grade Martial Skill ’Mountain Collapse’.”

”Congratulations Player Tang Yi. You have obtained the Finishing Move ’Mountain Shattering Earth Splitting Slash’.”

”Congratulations Player Tang Yi. You have obtained Basic Fist Technique, Basic Swordsmanship, and Basic Saber Technique.”

”Congratulations Player Tang Yi. You have obtained all Secondary Professions on the Saint Martial Continent.”

The system’s voice chimed for a while before fading. As it disappeared, golden rings of light—the kind that signaled a level-up—began to surge from beneath his feet.

”Congratulations Player Tang Yi, you have leveled up. Current Level: One-Star Battle Disciple.”

”Congratulations Player Tang Yi, you have leveled up. Current Level: Two-Star Battle Disciple.”

”Congratulations Player Tang Yi, you have leveled up. Current Level: Three-Star Battle Disciple.”

...

”Congratulations Player Tang Yi, you have leveled up. Current Level: Nine-Star Battle Disciple.”

In an instant, Tang Yi went from a good-for-nothing who couldn’t cultivate to a Nine-Star Battle Disciple.

At a speed like this, who could possibly compete?!

Even the most monstrously talented genius on the Saint Martial Continent probably couldn’t level up this fast, right?

On top of that, he had obtained all the Secondary Professions in the Saint Martial Continent, and even an Earth Tier Martial Technique!

On the Saint Martial Continent, Martial Techniques were divided into four tiers from highest to lowest: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow. Each tier was further subdivided into the Upper, Middle, and Lower Three Grades, making for twelve levels in total.

Tang Yi didn’t know if there were any Martial Techniques higher than the Heaven Tier, but an Earth-level Lower Grade Martial Skill was already something incredibly impressive.

Even his father, the Tang Family Patriarch and a Five-star Battle Grandmaster, only used a Profound Tier Middle Grade martial technique at best!
