Ye Tianyi opened his eyes, utterly dumbfounded.
Before Ye Tianyi appeared a System Interface visible only to him. He saw the second system that had been activated, confirmed its name, then confirmed the task details. He was even more dumbfounded.
Big bro, what the hell were you trying to pull?
Yes, the Ye Tianyi from before he transmigrated really had been a scumbag, but you couldn't make him—a Good Citizen—become a scumbag too!
Scumbag?
Big bro, that was a Derogatory Term! Why the hell would a system want him to become something derogatory? Weren't systems supposed to temper a person, make them stronger and better, and help them develop morally, intellectually, physically, aesthetically, and in labor? This was insane!
Ye Tianyi roared endlessly in his heart!
Really, he had been looking forward to a New System beyond measure. It would have been nice if it were a Godly Tycoon System or some God of War System. Even one similar to the Heavenly Showoff System would do. But it had to give him a Scumbag System? Chase two girls with an Appearance Value of over ninety within seven days? Huo Shui was a ninety-three, for crying out loud. Was this a joke? Girls at that level were goddesses in the truest sense. Were they that easy to chase? Chasing one in seven days might still be possible, but two...
I'll chop you to death with one slash.
You're damn impressive!
But crazy as he was, the moment Ye Tianyi saw the reward, he was instantly fine...
At minimum, a Heaven Rank Martial Skill; at maximum, a God Rank Ten-Star Martial Skill. To put it simply, in Ye Tianyi's memory, no one in the entire Heavenly Water Holy City possessed a Martial Technique of the Heaven Rank. Martial Techniques had six major grades: Yellow, Profound, Earth, Heaven, Divine, and Saint. Each grade was further divided into ten stars, and the higher the star rating, the stronger the Martial Technique. Earth Rank was already the pinnacle, something ordinary martial artists yearned for yet could never obtain. As for Heaven Rank, at least in Ye Tianyi's understanding, it was a legendary Martial Technique—at least within the Heavenly Water Empire.
It was said that the destructive power of a Heaven Rank Martial Skill could truly overturn mountains. When the gap between martial artists of a single Major Realm was already as vast as heaven and earth, using a Heaven Rank Martial Skill could even allow one to cross an entire Major Realm and instantly kill an opponent. That was the terrifying part of Heaven Rank Martial Skills.
He had to complete it! If he kept hesitating, it would be gone! Why were your Task Punishments always like this!?
Ye Tianyi got out of bed and began thinking about which girls with a score over ninety he could win over within seven days.
After thinking it over, he barely even knew any girls who scored above ninety. Bai Hanxue, whom he did know, wanted to kill him, while Huo Shui... was a Monster. He couldn't fool her.
"Ahhh! How am I supposed to do this!?"
Ye Tianyi clutched his hair and walked out of his room. Ye Xian'er had already prepared breakfast for him, arranging it delicately on the table, while she herself had gone out.
Whether she had gone to Heavenly Water Academy to get to the bottom of the matter, Ye Tianyi didn't know. She might have headed to the Demon Beast Domain early in the morning instead.
Ye Tianyi bit into a sandwich and walked outside.
"Sister Hong."
Ye Tianyi greeted her and walked over.
"I brought you the news. Tomorrow night at eight, on the ninth floor of Beining Building, someone will interview you. We originally planned to leave tomorrow, but since we don't have enough Manpower for now, it's been pushed back to the day after tomorrow."
Sister Hong spoke to Ye Tianyi.
"Thanks, Sister Hong. I've transferred the money to you."
Sister Hong took out her phone and glanced at it.
"Oh? Ten Thousand Yuan? Young Master Ye is Rich and Powerful."
Ye Tianyi waved his hand, then walked off with a smile.
When he arrived at Heavenly Water Academy, Ye Tianyi clearly sensed the students inside the academy Pointing and Gossiping about him.
The name Ye Tianyi was very well-known in Heavenly Water Holy City, though not that many people actually recognized him. But what happened yesterday had directly made everyone know who he was.
Ye Tianyi then entered Class Ten and sat beside Huo Shui.
The previously noisy classroom inexplicably fell silent because of Ye Tianyi's arrival.
When Huo Shui saw Ye Tianyi enter, she was rather startled. He actually dared to keep coming to Heavenly Water Academy? Who knew how many people wanted to kill him? She truly didn't want to see Ye Tianyi. Thinking of the bet she had lost to him yesterday made her feel awful all over again.
In everyone's eyes, he was a scumbag. But in the eyes of every man, he was also a godlike man.
Ye Tianyi really wanted to know how this Scumbag System earned Swagger Value. The Heavenly Showoff System corresponded to Tianxiu Operations, which matched its name. But the Scumbag System...
"Ding... You have triggered the task [Crying Huo Shui]. Task details: Use every possible means to make the Little Demoness Huo Shui cry. Task Reward: At minimum, 5,000,000 Swagger Value. The amount of Swagger Value will increase depending on the extent of her crying. The system Grand Roulette will be unlocked. Time limit: While the Scumbag System exists. Task Punishment: Swagger Value -3,000,000."
The suddenly triggered task made Ye Tianyi pause slightly.
Every system had an Ultimate Task. The methods of gaining Swagger Value during that time differed, and some smaller tasks matching the system would also be triggered. This was one of them. This really was a Scumbag System—making a young lady cry. Seriously... was it trying to drive him into a corner?
But making Huo Shui cry? Making this Little Demoness cry would be rather difficult.
"Hey, flat-chested girl."
Ye Tianyi sat down and glanced at Huo Shui beside him.
Huo Shui froze.
Eh? Something was wrong. She had already tampered with this chair. He should have fallen straight down when he sat on it, and there was a thumbtack underneath. His butt would land right on it. That had been her plan. Why was the chair fine?
Why was it fine? Ye Tianyi wasn't some little kid—how could he let her set him up? He had long heard that Huo Shui's tricks for tormenting people were endless. The first thing he would do upon entering was definitely sit in this chair, so there was a high chance she had tampered with it. Though Ye Tianyi appeared to be sitting on it now, he wasn't actually putting any weight on it. His legs were supporting him.
"Who are you calling that, idiot?"
Huo Shui glared at Ye Tianyi.
"Oh? You lost to me yesterday. What, are you going back on your word?"
Ye Tianyi said with a grin.
"Going back on my word? Hah, stop pretending. Someone already asked about you and Bai Hanxue. She personally admitted that you two aren't boyfriend and girlfriend."
Huo Shui said disdainfully.
Everyone appeared calm, but they were all actually following their conversation.
Yes, many people had asked about it in confusion this morning, and it had been clarified. Bai Hanxue couldn't be bothered to say much. She only said they weren't, then walked away.
"Right, we really aren't boyfriend and girlfriend. I dumped her yesterday."
Ye Tianyi shrugged.
"You weren't yesterday either."
"I dumped her, so naturally she refused to admit it. If we really weren't, then how do you explain her letting me kiss her yesterday and even kissing me first?"
After hearing Ye Tianyi's words, they suddenly felt that it did make some sense.
Huo Shui couldn't figure that part out either, but letting him have one night? How could that be possible?
"Flat-chested girl, lend me your facial cleanser. If you do, I won't pursue the matter of you losing yesterday's bet. Anyway, you wouldn't honor it."
Ye Tianyi said.
"You said it."
Huo Shui knew she was in the wrong about this matter, so she unhesitatingly tossed the facial cleanser from her handbag to Ye Tianyi.
"I meant this one."
Ye Tianyi pointed at her.
Huo Shui: "..."
Everyone: "..."
"Ding... Successfully teased a young lady. Swagger Value +30,000."
The system notification rang out, and Ye Tianyi smiled inwardly.
Huo Shui took a deep breath.
At that moment, a beautiful figure walked in, interrupting Huo Shui just as she was finally about to lose control and erupt.
