"This is... just a joke!"
The immensely powerful Ancient Red Dragon had fallen right before their eyes. Even now, the group of legendary powerhouses present had yet to recover their senses.
They had come for a "righteous battle" to "save the world." Every legendary powerhouse had been prepared to fight to the death; some had even prepared themselves for sacrifice.
But... the current situation was simply beyond words!
The promised "fight to the death" had somehow turned into "beating a dog that had fallen into the water." The contrast was too great—they could not keep up with this pace!
"Um..."
Li Yu looked at everyone somewhat awkwardly, coughed dryly, and began spinning another tale. "I never expected that, at such a critical moment in the fight against evil, my understanding of Holy Light would deepen further. I suddenly broke through a realm, and my strength increased too much. I still can't control it perfectly, so I hit a little too hard."
To keep the legendary powerhouses from feeling that they were "too useless," Li Yu had no choice but to offer a few "explanations."
Was he really fooling these legendary powerhouses in order to fight the Ancient Red Dragon? Li Yu's target had never been the Ancient Red Dragon. It was merely a pretext for fooling people.
Why had Li Yu come to this world? To study how to achieve Spirit transformed into Chaos and attain the Third Step of Chaos as soon as possible. That was Li Yu's fundamental goal.

The legendary powerhouses present had all become users of Holy Light, which meant they had effectively become believers in Holy Light.
