I Break through Crazily

After hearing Wang Bi’Er’s explanation, not only did Tang Yi’s interest get piqued, but Mu Xianling, Tang Piaomiao, and the others also became deeply intrigued by the Eight Palaces Deer Battle Hall and its leaderboard.

The group prepared to head to the Eight Palaces Deer Battle Hall to experience the marvel of being able to battle disciples from all Eight Palaces in a single location. Just then, they heard the surprised cries and excited conversations of some other candidates nearby.

"Did you see it? Did you see it?! Everyone, look! Oh my god!"

"I see it! That can’t be... It can’t be one of the candidates from our year, can it? So incredible!"

"It looks like our year has really produced an incredible genius. They actually broke into the top three thousand on the leaderboard."

"I saw it too! Temporary Number 59886, rank 2995. But it only shows a temporary ID. Do any of you know who it is? Getting on the leaderboard with just a temporary number... That’s truly unbelievable."

"Of course I know! That’s a candidate from the East District named Yuh Jili. He’s already a Seven-Star Battle Spirit, incredibly strong! They say he’s the most brilliant young genius in a century!"

"How do you know it’s him?"

"I snuck a peek when he was getting his temporary number. I saw the number on his arm..."

"So it really is him. He hasn’t even entered the West Mansion yet, but as a mere candidate, he’s already at the level of a Seven-Star Battle Spirit and has broken into the top three thousand of the Outer Mansion leaderboard... It seems we’re not in the same league as him."

"Sigh... Some people just have more Talent. At the same age, he’s already broken through to Battle Spirit and is even on his way to becoming a Battle King. Meanwhile, we’re just Battle Grandmasters. Who knows when we’ll even reach Battle Spirit."

"..."

The candidates sighed wistfully as they discussed amongst themselves.

’Yuh Jili? A young genius? Rank 2995? Heh, interesting.’

Hearing this, Tang Yi glanced at the leaderboard. Sure enough, he found a temporary number five spots from the bottom.

"It seems the quality of candidates this year is really high, much better than last year! To think that besides you, Brother Tang Yi, someone else was able to break into the top three thousand on the Outer Mansion leaderboard," Wang Bi’Er remarked with a sigh.

"There’s always someone better out there. It’s not strange for incredible geniuses to appear every so often," Tang Yi said with a smile.

"Exactly! Like you, Brother Tang Yi. You’re the most amazing person I’ve ever met. In fact, the word ’amazing’ is hardly enough to describe you anymore." Wang Bi’Er gazed at Tang Yi with wide, worshipful eyes.

The others deeply agreed with Wang Bi’Er’s sentiment.

Indeed, Tang Yi could no longer be described as merely "amazing." "Demon" was a more fitting term.

Who had ever seen a candidate capable of defeating a Battle Emperor Powerhouse? Who could kill countless Battle Kings with a single, casual move?

No one!

But Wang Bi’Er and the others had.

That person was Tang Yi!

Although she agreed with Wang Bi’Er, Mu Xianling frowned. She felt Wang Bi’Er’s words were a little too intimate, which made her feel quite uncomfortable.

"Bi’Er, we were talking about someone else. Why the sudden praise for me? I mean, I’m happy to hear it, but... you’ll make me arrogant."

Tang Yi chuckled.

’Of course, I don’t really think of myself as a genius,’ Tang Yi thought. ’I just got lucky and acquired the Battle God System. Without it, I’d still be a good-for-nothing shut-in.’

"I want to make you arrogant," Wang Bi’Er said.

"Heh."

Tang Yi gave a small laugh and didn’t say anything more to Wang Bi’Er. Mu Xianling was already glaring daggers at the two of them, her eyes wide with displeasure. Who knew what would happen if they kept talking.

He quickly looked away. Just then, Tang Yi noticed on the leaderboard that Temporary Number 59886 had risen another spot, reaching rank 2994.

’In just that short amount of time, his ranking has gone up again!’

This candidate, Yuh Jili, hadn’t even entered the West Mansion, yet his strength already ranked within the top three thousand of the West Mansion Outer Mansion Disciples, and he was still climbing. His Talent was clearly remarkable; calling him a young genius was no exaggeration.

’Still, one Yuh Jili isn’t enough to catch my attention. After all, he and I are not on the same Level. My goal isn’t just the top three thousand—it’s first place!’

’If I’m going to do this, I’m going to be number one!’

Seeing that a temporary number could indeed appear on the leaderboard, Tang Yi’s anticipation for the Eight Palaces Deer Battle Hall grew even stronger. However, he didn’t rush off. Instead, he lingered for a moment, wanting to overhear a bit more of the other people’s conversations.

He might pick up something interesting from the gossip, just like that tidbit about Yuh Jili.

"Sigh, to break into the top three thousand of the Outer Mansion at his age, and as just a candidate... his future is limitless. It’s a shame a genius like him won’t be coming to our Dui Palace."

"Yeah, our Dui Palace is getting weaker and weaker. Right now, there isn’t a single one of our disciples in the top thousand of the leaderboard. Sigh... we can only blame this damned Spiritual Power for being so hard to cultivate."

"Don’t be so down. Didn’t Senior Brother Mo Ran just have another breakthrough? He’s already in the top 2000, at rank 1566! Our Dui Palace isn’t doing too badly."

"Senior Sister Ye Feihan has improved too. She’s at rank 1050 now. It’s only a matter of time before she breaks into the top thousand."

"That’s right, let’s not get too discouraged. Spiritual Power may be difficult to cultivate, but once we master it, we’ll definitely rise to prominence and become powerhouses admired by all!"

"Yeah, let’s all keep working hard! That day will come!"

"..."

The ones speaking were disciples from the Dui Palace.

’From their conversation, it’s easy to imagine that the Dui Palace’s current situation is anything but optimistic,’ Tang Yi thought.

’For a Palace as large as Dui, not having a single disciple ranked in the top thousand is... The other Seven Palaces occupy all the spots.’

’How utterly tragic is that?’

’Spiritual Power is formidable, no doubt, but this just goes to show how incredibly difficult it is to cultivate!’

’To be so much weaker than the other Palaces!’

’As more and more talented disciples join the West Mansion, this disadvantage will only become more pronounced.’

’Eventually, they might not even have a place in the top two thousand, let alone the top one thousand.’

’However...’

’The Dui Palace disciples still have a good cultivation atmosphere. As soon as someone gets discouraged, others jump in to offer encouragement, giving each other a moral boost. With an environment like this, as long as they persevere, they’re bound to achieve something.’

This also increased Tang Yi’s favorable impression of the Dui Palace.

He also came to a better understanding of why Mo Ran had attacked with so little provocation before. ’They’ve been under constant pressure for a long time, probably suffering endless suppression and ridicule from the disciples of other Palaces. For a candidate to come along and kick them while they’re down... of course he would snap. It’s only normal that he’d act rashly.’
