"What did you say?!"
Hearing this, the most shocked person was not Chen Deng, but Xu Ligong, who had been silent from the beginning.
As a teacher in a martial - arts high school, he knew better than anyone present how absurd that sentence just now was.
One person defeating over a hundred people?!
Xu Ligong stared intently at the girl, an incredulous look on his face. "You're really not joking?!
Tang Yao replied casually, "I've already asked over a dozen people. What's the point of joking?"
Even after knowing that Ye Li had single - handedly defeated over a hundred people, there was not the slightest trace of tension on the girl's proud and beautiful face.
Upon hearing this, Chen Deng on the hospital bed slumped back onto the bed. Between breaths, he smiled bitterly and said, "Besides you, there's actually such a genius in Ying Province...."
Originally, in his view, a genius like Tang Yao, looking across the entire Ying Province, there probably wasn't a second one.
Even if the young miss of the Jiang family in Linhai City awakened an A - grade martial - arts talent, it was the same.
After all, the girl had once held a sword and commanded the entire school's students. Chen Deng had witnessed it with his own eyes.
Precisely because of this, he admired her so much.
So much so that he regarded her as the goddess in his heart and pursued her regardless of everything, just to catch up with her steps.
Unfortunately.... It was nothing but a fool's dream.
Chen Deng smiled bitterly.
That Tang Yao in the past and Ye Li today were so similar!
Tang Yao slightly furrowed her delicate brows. Unlike Chen Deng, she didn't think Ye Li was comparable to herself.
She merely found the other side a bit interesting.
But forget it.
She had no intention of arguing with Chen Deng.
Such mediocre people were doomed to be mediocre.
There was no need to spend time befriending them, not in the slightest.
Thinking of this, Tang Yao turned around and was about to leave.
The reason she came was to find out the situation. Now that she knew, and there was nothing worthy of attention, she naturally had to go back and prepare for the exchange competition in the afternoon.
She slowly walked out of the hospital room.
At this moment, Xu Ligong, who was sitting on the chair, suddenly let out a sigh, looked at Chen Deng on the hospital bed, and smiled bitterly.
"It seems that the exchange competition this afternoon is a no - go. I'll go and forfeit for you later. You should recuperate well."
"Forfeit?" Tang Yao's doubtful voice rang in his ear.
Xu Ligong turned his head to look and saw the beautiful girl who had just left return. She looked at him with dissatisfaction and said coldly,
"Who said we're forfeiting?"
"But...." Xu Ligong was a bit stunned. "Six out of our seven - person team are seriously injured!"
"So what?" Tang Yao asked calmly.
"This... this...."
Xu Ligong didn't know what to say for a moment.
In his opinion, with the current situation, of course, they should forfeit the competition and recuperate well!
But when he thought of the girl's extremely proud and extreme personality, he swallowed these words back.
At a young age, she could unleash the attack power of a B - grade talent to surpass that of an A - grade talent. Her martial - arts cultivation was at the peak of the second - rank sixth - layer, and she had countless precious martial - arts skills from the Sword Pavilion.... Tang Yao indeed had the capital to look down on others.
Taking a deep breath.
For some reason, Xu Ligong felt his confidence soar.
He looked at the girl and asked in a deep voice,
"Then what do you mean?"
"Need you ask?" A hint of mockery flashed in Tang Yao's eyes, but it quickly faded.
Immediately after, an extremely fierce sword intent erupted from her, as if it was going to split the hospital beneath her feet in half!
In Xu Ligong's dazed gaze, this extremely confident and beautiful girl raised her cold eyes and said indifferently,
"We'll participate as normal. I'll take the stage."
"But that Ye Li...."
"He's indeed not bad."
Tang Yao suddenly interrupted Xu Ligong's words. Her cherry - colored small mouth spat out cold words:
"But that's all."
"He just cleared out a group of weaklings. Anyone could easily do such a thing. It's nothing to brag about."
"Let me make this clear."
"In this competition, they are the challengers."
In the city center of Qingshan City.
In a high - end hotel.
Ye Li was sitting cross - legged on the bed, feeling a bit down.
According to what Wang Yongfeng said, in the exchange competition this afternoon, Qingshan No.1 Middle School would most likely forfeit due to a lack of people. His plan to beat up that sword - path genius girl would go down the drain.
No chance to earn evil values....
Ye Li let out a sigh, calmed his emotions, and summoned the panel.
[Current evil value: 46000 points. Can draw treasures]
Even with his state of mind, upon seeing this number on the panel, he couldn't help but smile again.
Sure enough, no one would see their account balance and not smile.
If they didn't smile, it meant their account balance was at rock bottom.
Although the evil values provided by those students from Qingshan No.1 Middle School were small, there were so many of them!
With over a hundred people contributing, it directly brought his foundation to a terrifying level.
Through several experiences, Ye Li had also discovered some rules for the system to determine evil values.
Only when defeating martial artists who had animosity towards him could he obtain evil values at the normal level.
Take Jiang Qingzhu as an example.
When he was guiding that young miss in martial - arts skills, Ye Li didn't hold back at all, aiming for evil values.
But even if he made Jiang Qingzhu collapse to the ground and lose her senses, the evil values recognized by the system were only in the double digits.
Damn it, is this to prevent me from farming values infinitely?....
Ye Li let out a sigh. Anyway, now that he had successfully obtained the breathing method, he could start adding points to his long - unupgraded martial - arts level.
Saying it was long - unupgraded, it had actually only been two or three days.
But before that....
Ye Li turned his gaze to the new words next to the evil value.
As the evil values were farmed, it seemed that new functions would gradually appear in the system.
For example, when he first crossed over and defeated Wang Ren, the system added the "Cultivation Point - adding" function.
This was really a good thing.
Not to mention that he was still lacking a suitable gun - type treasure.
Ye Li had an idea, and the words on the panel immediately began to change.
[Spend a thousand evil values to draw a treasure wheel once]
[Treasure Wheel: A magical wheel that contains all kinds of treasures. Any kind of magical item can possibly be drawn from it. If you want to rise to the top, why not try your luck?]
[Note: This treasure pool guarantees a draw after forty tries, and a golden - quality treasure is guaranteed in the Guaranteed draw!]
Damn it, no wonder this thing appeared only after forty thousand evil values!
Ye Li suddenly realized. It turned out that the system thought he had the courage to gamble, so it immediately presented this wheel.
System, you've misjudged me. Ye has never been a gambler!
Ye Li sneered.
Then he unhesitatingly chose to give it a try.
Nothing else.
With a new pool in front of him, would anyone not give it a shot?
[Ding!]
[Congratulations on obtaining a purple - rare - quality treasure ——]
A purple light illuminated Ye Li's handsome face.
Fortunately, although it wasn't a golden draw, purple was not bad either.
He nodded slightly and looked at the panel.
[Functional Treasure: Harmony - inducing Ring]
[Effect: Consume true qi to force enemies within a five - meter radius to kneel towards oneself. The higher the enemy's level, the more true qi is consumed!]
[Cooldown: One day]
"...?"
Ye Li was speechless for a while. Are you sure this treasure can make people get along harmoniously after using it?
This treasure not only had no rank but only had quality, and this effect was also too....It suited him!
Ye Li's black pupils glimmered slightly.
Dang dang——
At this moment, a soft knock on the door sounded.
"Are you still resting?"
Jiang Qingzhu's slightly surprised voice came from outside the door:
"Qingshan No.1 Middle School isn't forfeiting. They asked us to go for the competition."
Hmph, not only are they not forfeiting, but they're coming for us?
Inside the room, the corner of Ye Li's mouth slowly curled up.
This Tang Yao, her courage is worthy of praise.
But unfortunately, that's the only thing he can praise her for.
