"Hey, look! Isn't that Lin Tian?"
"Where? Let me see?"
The two looked across the road at a boy dressed in white. He kept walking, seeming to be in a hurry.
"That's definitely him! I heard he just awakened Authority [Mind's Eye]? Doesn't that make him a complete loser?"
The boy beside him seemed rather displeased. "Lin Tian's parents died for the country. He's the son of heroes. You can't call him a loser just because of that!"
"Besides, didn't you say he was your role model before?"
"Oh, give me a break! Him, the son of heroes? He's nothing but a loser in my eyes."
The boy wanted to defend Lin Tian further, but he was cut off directly.
"Stop making excuses for him! Trash like him doesn't deserve to be my role model!"
With that, he turned and left without looking back. As he watched Lin Tian's retreating figure, a violet-black glint flashed through his shadowy eyes before vanishing...
The streets and alleys of Yatuo City all sang praises of Lin Tian's parents' heroic deeds. As mere mortals, they had slain gods against all odds, shaking the entire nation. Lin Tian had thus been given the title of "son of heroes."
Countless people envied and admired him, treating Lin Tian as their role model. Everyone believed he would surely inherit his parents' Authority, perhaps even surpass them in one stroke and become a new-generation powerhouse of East God Star!
But everything changed three days ago, when Lin Tian awakened his Authority. No one could believe that their former role model had awakened the weakest Authority! No one could accept that they had actually idolized a loser!
For a time, insults erupted everywhere. Lin Tian went from being admired by all to ridiculed by all. His talent became gossip
