Soft footsteps approached, accompanied by a faint fragrance unique to a young girl.

Click—

She switched on the light, revealing a tall, fairy-like woman.

She was around twenty-two or twenty-three, her skin seeming to glow with snowy light. Her pale blue eyes were as cold as Siberia's frozen soil, while her high nose bridge drew sharp lines across her face. Her lightly pursed thin lips seemed to signal her aloofness. She possessed the beauty of a Snow Lotus and the bearing of a Winter Plum, clear and lovely yet imposing, pride written into the corners of her eyes and brows. Yet when she looked at Ye Tianyi, there was a trace of tenderness. Her features were exquisite, capable of toppling nations and cities. For a moment, Ye Tianyi was utterly at a loss for words!

This woman with the somewhat icy temperament was so beautiful.

She was Ye Tianyi's older sister, Ye Xian'er.

Why did Ye Tianyi say this body's original owner had been a complete scumbag? Aside from enjoying cuckolding others, the most crucial reason had to do with Ye Xian'er.

Ye Tianyi had been adopted by Ye Xian'er's parents when he was young. As the main city of the Heavenly Water Empire, Heavenly Water Holy City gathered heroes and experts from all over. The Ye Family had once been one of the Four Great Families of the Heavenly Water Empire. Ye Xian'er was a Heaven's Favored Daughter, possessing extraordinarily monstrous talent. Combined with her beauty that could make fish sink and geese fall, she had once been called the Number One Beauty and Number One Genius by Heavenly Water Academy, the strongest academy in Heavenly Water Holy City. Even now, she remained a legend of Heavenly Water Academy.

But everything had changed Six Years Ago.

Six Years Ago, the Ye Family had been slaughtered overnight by an unknown force. Ye Xian'er had been at Heavenly Water Academy at the time, while Ye Tianyi had been at a club. The two of them had survived, but who had done it remained a mystery even now. Ye Xian'er had continued investigating, but there were almost no clues.

The reason Lin Yang feared Ye Tianyi was actually because he feared Ye Xian'er. After all, the Ye Family had once been one of the Four Great Families, and Ye Xian'er still knew many elders from Great Families. They might offer her some protection and assistance.

After that, Ye Xian'er had left Heavenly Water Academy and given up the best Cultivation Resources, devoting herself wholeheartedly to taking care of him. Many people had lamented it!

But the most scumbag thing this body's original owner had done was... Three Years Ago, he had drugged Ye Xian'er. Perhaps he had harbored thoughts about her long before then.

Would Ye Xian'er have guarded against him? Naturally not. Fortunately, he had not succeeded in the end.

Afterward, she had never blamed Ye Tianyi. Perhaps she blamed him in her heart, but she had never said it aloud. She still took care of him and cleaned up his messes outside. Yet she certainly had become wary of him.

"Damn! What a beast!"

Ye Tianyi cursed inwardly.

"Mm, you're back."

Ye Tianyi nodded, took the Slippers Ye Xian'er handed him and put them on, then walked toward the sofa.

Ye Xian'er put away Ye Tianyi's shoes, closed the door, then went into the kitchen. She brought out the food she had kept warm for him and poured him a glass of water.

"Eat something."

"Mm."

Ye Tianyi took the chopsticks she handed over and began shoveling food into his mouth.

The taste was simple and homely, but delicious.

Ye Xian'er sat not far away from Ye Tianyi, watching him as she softly said, "You're going to Heavenly Water Academy tomorrow. Rest early."

Ye Tianyi put down his chopsticks and looked at her.

"What's the point of me going to Heavenly Water Academy?"

This body's talent was weak. After cultivating for so many years, he was still only like this. He had even been born without attributes. Compared with those who could not cultivate at all, he was not much better off—at most, he could sense Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. Perhaps that was one reason he had become so useless and unlearned. Ye Tianyi felt miserable. In novels, many transmigrators ended up in the bodies of trash, but those people had Golden Fingers! Their Golden Fingers chimed the moment they transmigrated, but where the hell was his?

"Nothing is difficult in this world if one is determined. Your talent may be weak, but as long as you are willing to work hard, you can become strong too. Heavenly Water Academy can give you better help. I only hope you won't remain useless and unlearned like you were at Heavenly Star Academy." With that, she stood and walked toward her room.

"Who did you ask to get me into Heavenly Water Academy?"

Ye Tianyi raised his head and looked at her slender back as he asked from behind.

Ye Xian'er's delicate body paused.

"Just cultivate properly." With that, she entered her room and shut the door.

Ye Tianyi had been expelled from Heavenly Star Academy because he had been too much of a scumbag. As the number one academy in Heavenly Water Holy City, Heavenly Water Academy naturally would not normally accept him. Therefore, Ye Xian'er must have secretly begged some powerful and influential people to get him admitted.

"Ah, what a beast!"

Ye Tianyi sighed inwardly. Such a wonderful person had given so much and sacrificed so much for him, yet that bastard had actually still...

After eating, Ye Tianyi returned to his room. It was very tidy, and even the quilt had been folded. Clearly, he had not done it himself. Then Ye Tianyi lay on the bed, pondering what he needed to do next.

Since he had come to this world, he had to adapt to it. At the same time, he had to take on some of this body's responsibilities, such as finding out who had massacred the Ye Family back then—and taking good care of her.

"Ding... What is the Host's ideal?"

Suddenly, the strange voice of a little girl rang out in Ye Tianyi's mind.

Ye Tianyi shot upright.

"Ding... What is the Host's ideal?"

That voice rang out again.

Ye Tianyi: "..."

Holy crap? His Golden Finger had arrived?

What was his ideal?

After a few seconds, Ye Tianyi tilted his head and tentatively said, "Pick up countless girls?"

"Ding... The Host's ideal matches the system. The Infinite Random System has officially activated. The currently randomly activated system is: Heavenly Showoff System."

"Ding... The Host has triggered the task [I am a Showoff]. Task content: Complete a series of unexpected, showoff operations before everyone. Task progress: 0%. Time limit: seven days. Task Reward: Realm Increase by Five Levels + Heaven-Defying Cultivation Talent + First System Shop activation. Task Punishment: Intelligence reduced by 30%. This task has been forcibly accepted."

The next moment, a blue screen appeared before Ye Tianyi's eyes, with several lines of text displayed on it.

[Infinite System]: Currently activated system: Heavenly Showoff System. (Time remaining until the next system activates: 6 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes, 49 seconds; or after completing the task, the system refreshes at midnight the following day.) Current triggered task: [I am a Showoff] Current Swagger Value: 0 Exchangeable: None System Shop: Not yet activated Host's current status: Weak Chicken

Ye Tianyi: "..."

He... actually had the system that male protagonists in those urban novels possessed?

Had he become stupid from transmigrating?

Wait, this young master had already transmigrated. Was there anything wrong with having a system? Nothing wrong at all! This was obviously supposed to be part of the package!

This system seemed to change into a New System every seven days, or after completing the Ultimate Task triggered by the corresponding system. If he was awesome enough, it could even change once a day. Each system would trigger an Ultimate Task, and every task came with both a Task Reward and a Task Punishment. For some reason, he was already looking forward to what kind of Dog Thing the next system would be...

"If these rewards are real, then I won't have to worry about this trash talent anymore!"

Ye Tianyi's eyes lit up.

"Ding... Congratulations, Host, for completing the [Ten People Kill] achievement. Your reward is the activation of one of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth. Please choose."

Ye Tianyi: "..."

This system... was this invincible?

Attributes were a type of power every martial artist possessed. For example, with a Fire Attribute, one could release flames and use Fire Attribute Martial Techniques. Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth were the most common attributes, though there were also some rare ones. Although this body's original owner could cultivate, he had no Attribute Power at all, which greatly affected his combat ability. Yet this system...

Of the Five Great Attributes, Ye Tianyi naturally chose the relatively popular Fire Attribute.

Then Ye Tianyi tentatively made his choice.

"Ding... Fire Attribute granted!"

The next moment, Ye Tianyi stretched out his hand and slightly circulated the power within his body. A ball of flame ignited in his palm.

"This..."

Ye Tianyi was completely dumbfounded...

This was fucking real!

"Ding... Please unlock the [Hundred People Kill] achievement as soon as possible. Current progress: 99/100. Achievement requirement: The final target must be a woman with an Appearance Value of ninety points or higher, including ninety. Achievement reward: Permanently activate Heaven-Defying Attribute Power (Time or Space). The next achievement, [Thousand People Kill], has not yet been unlocked. Please continue working hard."

Ye Tianyi: "..."

This fucking...

"System Miss... are you there, System Miss? Beep beep beep?"

Ye Tianyi muttered softly.

"Ding... Does little brother need something?"

Ye Tianyi: "..."

Holy shit! You were this human-like?

"System Miss, why does this system have something to do with women? What does this achievement even mean?"

"Ding... Because This System's concept is to help the Host chase girls—pick up more girls, and better girls."

Ye Tianyi: "..."

You were awesome. Your whole family was awesome!

"Then where's my beginner's gift pack? Doesn't every system have some kind of beginner's gift pack when it activates?"

"Ding... This System does not provide beginner's gift packs. However, because little brother's Appearance Value is astonishing, the system is making an exception and issuing a beginner's gift pack."

Whoosh—

The next moment, two cards appeared before Ye Tianyi.

Ye Tianyi: "..."

Sorry, being handsome really meant you could do whatever you wanted.

Then Ye Tianyi swallowed and blankly Picked Up the two cards.

[Explosive Card]: Choose one target within your field of vision. Use this card, and it will be heaven-shattering!

Ye Tianyi: "..."

[Contrary Card]: Choose one target within your field of vision. Use this card, and for the next hour, every original statement and action the target makes toward the Host will be reversed.

Ye Tianyi: "..."

"System Miss, you're not pure."

System: ???

Ye Tianyi curled his lips into a smile and put away the two cards.

It seemed that he... was about to become invincible!

The Heavenly Showoff System, was it? Showoff operations? He was good at that!

Then tomorrow, he would let those students of Heavenly Water Academy Feel despair!

"System Miss, your voice is so sweet. You must be very pretty, right?"

Ye Tianyi asked with a smile.

"Ding... This System is a virtual existence and has no Physical Body."

"But you must have an appearance, right? How about showing me your pretty face in my mind?"

"Ding... This System cannot show its face until it has accumulated ten million Swagger Value."

Ye Tianyi: "..."

"Farewell! Time to sleep."

"..."
