I Break through Crazily

”Tang Yi is really this year’s biggest dark horse. We were all fooled by him.”

”Who said Tang Yi was a good-for-nothing? Step up, I dare you! I’ll beat you to death.”

”I was wondering why so many disciples from the Noble Families were just falling off the stage themselves. The acting was so obvious! I never thought it wasn’t an act, but that Tang Yi really had that kind of power!”

”Tang Yi versus Fan Wei... who’s stronger? I can’t wait to find out!”

”...”

On the Saint Martial Continent, the strong were revered. If Tang Yi was a good-for-nothing, everyone would naturally scorn him. But if he possessed immense power, then everyone’s opinion of him would change.

At this moment, the audience’s opinion of Tang Yi hadn’t just done a one-eighty; they were even starting to boast about his strength.

As for the Tang Family disciples watching from the stands, their faces were flushed red with pride.

”I told you! Brother Yi is super strong, but you all just wouldn’t believe me!”

”What’s so great about Su Four Sabers? My Brother Tang Yi could crush him with a single finger.”

”Tang Yi has finally made us proud. I thought he was going to hold back the whole time.”

”He didn’t even need to act against those other guys. If that Su Four Sabers hadn’t been so arrogant, Tang Yi wouldn’t have bothered to make a move.”

”No matter what, our Tang Yi is just that amazing. You have to admit it!”

Whenever the Tang Family disciples spoke of Tang Yi, they held their heads high, acting all high and mighty. Tang Yi had finally brought them glory!

After all, everyone had been calling Tang Yi a good-for-nothing before. The Tang Family disciples wanted to argue, but their pleas fell on deaf ears. It had been incredibly frustrating.

Now they could finally hold their heads high, so if they didn’t show off a little, it would be an insult to all the grief they’d endured.

...

And so, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Tang Yi returned to the waiting area.

Seeing Tang Yi return, Mu Xianling looked as if she wanted to say something but held back, her exquisite face a mask of complex emotions.

”What is it you want to say?” Tang Yi couldn’t help but ask when he saw her expression.

Mu Xianling glanced at Tang Yi, then said with sudden seriousness, ”Tang Yi, so you really do have the strength to fight us. But don’t celebrate too early. I won’t lose to you! I will win Little Tiger from you, and I will defeat you!”

”Heh, maybe,” Tang Yi said with a smile, glancing at Mu Xianling. ”But I think the odds of you becoming my servant are a bit higher.”

At that moment, as he looked into Mu Xianling’s eyes, he suddenly noticed something peculiar.

Although Mu Xianling wasn’t as beautiful as Tang Lian or Shangguan Siyu, she possessed an incredibly ethereal air, like a celestial fairy who had descended to the mortal world, carrying a transcendent quality.

This quality was unique and made Mu Xianling stand out from the crowd.

At first, Tang Yi thought this aura emanated from her entire being. But now, looking at her eyes, he suddenly felt that Mu Xianling’s ethereal quality seemed to radiate from them.

Moreover, her eyes seemed to hold a captivating magic; a single glance was enough to be eternally unforgettable, to be lost within them.

Tang Yi didn’t know why he felt this way. The sensation was extremely strange, and it made him very curious about Mu Xianling’s eyes.

”What are you looking at!” Mu Xianling snapped, her expression turning sour.

”N-nothing,” Tang Yi said, awkwardly rubbing his nose. He just remembered that staring at a girl like that was incredibly rude, so he quickly averted his gaze.

’Although he was extremely curious about her eyes, Tang Yi wasn’t in a hurry. Once he defeated Mu Xianling and she became his servant, he’d have plenty of time to look at them. He could stare all he wanted and study those strange eyes then.’

”Hmph!” Mu Xianling snorted coldly. Seeing Tang Yi’s odd expression, she assumed he was thinking of something lewd and said with disgust, ”Pervert! Don’t even dream of it. You can’t possibly win against me!”

With that, Mu Xianling stomped off to the side, putting some distance between herself and Tang Yi, and ignored him completely.

’After Tang Yi’s intense stare just now, Mu Xianling had already made up her mind. Even if it cost her her Life, she would absolutely not lose to Tang Yi!’

’She was the young lady of the Mu Family! She would rather die than become Tang Yi’s servant!’

”Uh...”

’Tang Yi froze. He didn’t understand how this girl got angry so easily. He had only glanced at her eyes; it’s not like he did anything.’

Sensing Mu Xianling’s hostility, Tang Yi could only give a helpless smile. He didn’t say anything more, instead sweeping his gaze across the surroundings and listening in on the crowd’s discussions about him.

When he heard everyone pegging his strength at the Battle Grandmaster level, Tang Yi was instantly relieved.

’The fact that Su Four Sabers had been able to sense his aura was actually something Tang Yi had done on purpose.’

’After all, he couldn’t just have people mysteriously falling off the stage forever, could he?’

’Sometimes, you had to reveal a little bit of your power.’

’That’s why he had deliberately fought Su Four Sabers and released a bit of his aura, suppressing it to the level of a Battle Grandmaster. This was what made Su Four Sabers mistakenly believe that Tang Yi only had the strength of a Battle Grandmaster.’

’This was also in accordance with Wang Zongyao’s instructions to hide his true strength and make a stunning debut during the House Entrance Examination.’

But in reality, right after Little Tiger had killed the group of men in black robes, Tang Yi had gained enough Experience to advance from a Nine-star Battle Spirit to the Battle King Level. He was now a true Battle King Powerhouse.

He had just been too busy to stop and check his Level and the rewards he’d received.

However, even though Tang Yi hadn’t checked his Level, he could still feel his current state.

He felt strong. Incredibly strong. His entire body was brimming with Power, as if he could shatter the heavens with a mere wave of his hand.

Take someone like Round Dance, for example. If Tang Yi previously needed an Earth Tier Martial Technique to win easily, now he was confident he could effortlessly crush a Battle King Powerhouse like that with just his bare fists, no Martial Technique required!

In fact, Tang Yi felt it wouldn’t be a problem even if he had to take on several powerhouses like Round Dance at once!

This was Tang Yi’s understanding of his current strength!

This wasn’t just confidence; it was a feeling born from a True grasp of his own power.

’Of course, maybe this feeling wasn’t accurate, but the data would never lie, right?’

So, back in the waiting area, Tang Yi ignored the crowd’s chatter and their astonished gazes. He calmed his mind and, first things first, opened his character panel.

He was eager to see what new things he now possessed, and he wanted to find out what exactly that System Store was!
