"I, Lin Qingyue, would rather die than marry Su Ye!"

"I like Brother Su Ling. I want to change my marriage!"

Lin Qingyue clutched the hem of her Shenyun City First High School uniform, her pure, lovely face filled with stubbornness as her reddened eyes brimmed with tears.

Inside Su Manor, the expressions of the Su Family and Lin Family members changed dramatically upon hearing this.

"Qingyue, enough! Is this a place for you to Make a Scene?"

"Eighteen years ago, the Monster Tide flooded Shenyun City. Old Master Su burned his blood essence and charged into the sea of monsters to save your Grandfather, only to disappear in the end!"

"The marriage between you two was arranged by the two old masters when you were both newly born. If you break off this engagement, where will that leave the Lin Family's face?"

Lin Qingyue's father, Lin Yue, darkened slightly. He slammed a hand on the table and shouted.

Lin Qingyue bit her lip as tears of grievance fell drop by drop. She remained incomparably stubborn.

"I don't care!"

"And this isn't breaking off the engagement. I only want to change the marriage and marry Brother Su Ling! In any case, I absolutely will not marry Su Ye!"

"Su Ye and I are both third-year students, yet he hasn't even mastered the basic Azure Cloud Breathing Technique and Tiger Form Bone Forging Method. He doesn't even qualify to register for the Martial Arts Class a week from now. I, Lin Qingyue, will never marry him!"

The expressions of both families present could not help turning strange.

Their gazes shifted as well, falling upon the two youths in the center.

The youth on the left wore expensive clothes, a confident and arrogant smile curving his lips. As he played with his phone, he cast an amused glance at the youth on the right.

Su Ye, on the right, had a slightly youthful yet strikingly handsome face, but his expression carried a composure and calmness that did not match his age.

Suddenly, from the main seat at the table—

Su Li, the current head of the Su Family and Su Ye's second uncle, spoke blandly.

"Su Ye, what do you think about Qingyue changing the marriage?"

Seeing everyone's gazes focus on him, Su Ye could not help sighing inwardly.

Having lived two lives, his powers of observation naturally surpassed those of an ordinary youth. Looking at the unsurprised expression on his second uncle Su Li's face and the amused look on his cousin Su Ling's face—

How could he not know that this so-called Make a Scene over changing the marriage had likely been discussed in private by them and Lin Qingyue long ago?

They had probably waited for him to arrive so they could stage a "palace coup."

Then, if he agreed on the spot, outsiders would have nothing to say.

"I only returned to the Su Family a month ago. Lin Qingyue and I do not even know each other."

"There is naturally no need to force this marriage."

Su Ye's voice was calm, without much emotion in his words.

Eighteen years ago, the Monster Tide had attacked Shenyun City, causing a shocking upheaval.

Not only had Old Master Su disappeared, but even Su Ye's parents, who should have inherited the position of family head, had vanished with infant Su Ye in their arms.

It was only a month ago that the Su Family's Head Steward had found Su Ye at his adoptive parents' home and brought him back to the Su Family.

Su Ye had never felt much attachment to this childhood betrothal in the first place.

After all, although this world bore similarities to his previous life and was likewise highly technologically advanced, there was one greatest difference.

This was a world where everyone practiced martial arts. Powerful Martial Artists nearly monopolized everything and held transcendent status!

His cousin Su Ling was also a third-year student, but he had awakened a Martial Dao True Bone. He was destined to become an Origin Fusion Realm Martial Artist in the future, and entering one of the Five Great Academies was practically a sure thing.

"If there is nothing else, I'll be leaving first."

Su Ye's voice was icy as he lowered his eyes.

Though he felt no real attachment to this marriage, how could his State of Mind remain relaxed and steady after being plotted against and Looked Down Upon like this?

Suddenly, Su Ye's expression froze slightly before a trace of delight flashed through his eyes.

Is this thing finally about to reveal its true form?!

His mind was instantly drawn in, stirring faintly.

In his previous life, he had gone to a Daoist temple to seek a talisman. Yet while descending the mountain, he had accidentally lost his footing and arrived in this martial world!

And what had come with him was this Dao Talisman within his mind!

As time passed, the talisman's radiance had grown ever brighter. Su Ye had long suspected that a change would occur within these few days.

Clearly, the Dao Talisman was about to reveal its true form at this moment!

In the hall—

Lin Qingyue was delighted. She knew that this time, her Make a Scene had succeeded, and she would not have to marry Su Ye.

The Lin Family and Su Family were both first-rate families in Shenyun City, but the Lin Family was now on a downward slope while the Su Family was flourishing by the day!

Su Ling was bound to inherit the position of family head in the future. Naturally, she was willing to become engaged to Su Ling. That way, she would also be able to hold her head high among her wealthy young lady friends!

"If only you could enter the Martial Arts Class, I wouldn't have gone this far."

Lin Qingyue curled her lip.

At the thought of marrying Su Ye in the future and being scorned and mocked by her friends in their social circle, her scalp went numb. She absolutely could not accept it!

Fortunately, the marriage change had succeeded!

This made Lin Yue lose face somewhat. "You little bastard! Apologize to Xiao Ye!"

Yet Su Ye had no time to care about the others at this moment!

His heart shook violently!

Just then, the seal within his mind erupted with light, and streams of information flooded into his mind!

Manifestation Talisman!

[Manifest all Myriad Laws, Instant Mastery; endless techniques, Heaven Rewards Diligence]! [Current Dao Talisman Master: Su Ye] [Can manifest the current Dao Talisman Master's main cultivation methods: Azure Cloud Breathing Technique (Uninitiated), Tiger Form Bone Forging Method (Uninitiated), Military Fist (Proficient)] [Available manifestations: 3]

"What is this...?!"

In an instant, Su Ye understood the heaven-defying function of the Manifestation Talisman, and his expression was stunned!

No matter how difficult a technique was, as long as he consumed a manifestation, he could reverse cause and effect and achieve Instant Mastery!

Moreover, afterward, through the diligent practice of Heaven Rewards Diligence, he could continuously deepen his proficiency and reach the realm of perfection without encountering any bottlenecks!

"With this Manifestation Talisman, there is hope for the martial path!"

Su Ye's heart surged with excitement and joy, while the light in his eyes grew ever brighter.

Beside his ears, the harsh sounds of argument grew louder and louder!

Lin Yue had already smashed a teacup. His breathing was rapid as he glared at Lin Qingyue with a face full of fury.

Lin Qingyue, meanwhile, clenched her fists tightly and lowered her head. Still stubborn, aggrieved, and angry, she let tears fall as she said petulantly.

"I just Look Down Upon him! He can't even get into the Martial Arts Class!"

"If he can meet the Martial Arts Class requirements, so what if I, Lin Qingyue, marry him?"

At this moment, Su Li coughed twice.

"Enough!"

"As the Su Family head, I'll make the decision on this matter. It's settled, then—the marriage will be changed!"

"Old Lin, don't make things difficult for Qingyue either."

Su Ye looked at the proud and smug Su Ling, then at Lin Qingyue, who Looked Down Upon him.

Suddenly, his footsteps halted. He raised his lowered eyes, revealing a trace of sharpness.

"Who said I can't get into the Martial Arts Class?"

The moment those words came out, everyone was stunned!

The next instant—

A powerful aura suddenly erupted from Su Ye's body. His blood and qi surged, and crackling sounds rang out from all over his body as his bones trembled. His breathing was ethereal yet powerful, like drifting Azure Clouds, while a fierce Baleful Intent like a tiger devouring wolves burst from his entire body.

[Consumed 1 manifestation. Azure Cloud Breathing Technique (Initiated)!] [Consumed 1 manifestation. Tiger Form Bone Forging Method (Initiated)!]

"Manifestation Talisman, please light them up for me."

"Thank you."

A Buddha fights for a stick of incense; a man fights for a single breath!
