[Next, let's compare what happened after they enrolled.]
Across the two timelines, countless residents were eager to see how Ye Tianyun and Tang San would perform after starting school.
On the tournament platform.
Xiao Wu looked at Tang San with admiration and praised him:
"Third Brother, I'm sure you'll be the best at school."
As for Tang San's defeat at Ye Tianyun's hands, Xiao Wu subconsciously ignored it. She couldn't exactly say Tang San wasn't good enough.
"I believe in Third Brother, too."
Ma Hongjun eagerly buttered him up. After all, Tang San was the protagonist of the Douluo world, his dear Third Brother.
As long as Ye Tianyun wasn't around, Tang San was his dear big brother.
Tang San was swayed by their praise. He held his head high, certain that during his school years, he'd crush Ye Tianyun in an instant.
[There's not much to say about Tang San. With Innate Full Soul Power and the Tang Sect's secret manuals, he grew stronger step by step.]
[Then again, he had cheats, and his Innate Soul Power was high. There really isn't much to say. A comeback against the odds is what makes a story truly classic.]
???
Tang San was very unhappy. What did the Live Broadcast Room mean? Was he not even worth explaining?
Well, he was an unparalleled genius, after all. There really wasn't much to say about him.
[Next, we'll focus on how Ye Tianyun grew stronger step by step. Starting with just 0.1 Innate Soul Power, he caught up with Tang San in only six years, becoming a model example of a weakling's comeback.]
Countless people felt those words struck close to home.
Geniuses were few and far between. Most people were ordinary, and they all wanted to be like Ye Tianyun and stage a comeback against the odds.
"I really want to know how he got stronger."
Xiao Chenyu, a weakling who had been defeated by Tang San, couldn't help murmuring to himself.
He really wanted to make a comeback like Ye Tianyun, defeat Tang San in the end, turn the tables, and claim Xiao Wu for himself. Just thinking about it made him a little excited.
The Live Broadcast Room suddenly split into three screens.
The screen on the left showed Tang San diligently cultivating every night. The one on the right showed Ye Tianyun studying all kinds of books. He had never cultivated.
The middle screen showed the Parallel Timeline—in other words, Tang San from the same timeline as Ye Tianyun. He was diligently cultivating, too.
Seeing this comparison, Tang San couldn't make sense of how Ye Tianyun had defeated his other self. If he hadn't known the outcome, he would never have believed it.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Tang San cursed under his breath:
"He never cultivates, and he can still beat me? Just how useless is the other me?"
He had decided that the Tang San who had been defeated by Ye Tianyun in the other timeline was a useless fool, nowhere near as outstanding as himself.
Otherwise, why hadn't Ye Tianyun in this world defeated him?
Xiao Wu thought he had a point and couldn't help praising him:
"Third Brother, you're the one who's really outstanding. You defeated the Ye Tianyun in this world."
The Shrek Seven Devils fell silent. Was it really as Xiao Wu said?
Tang San, however, felt rather pleased. Being praised by a girl felt pretty good.
The Live Broadcast Room resumed its introduction.
[Ye Tianyun knew that as a Spirit Master with just 0.1 Innate Soul Power, simple meditation would never lead him to great achievements in this lifetime.]
Tang San started lecturing again:
"At least he knows his place. A useless Spirit Master thinks he's so great? He's trash, nothing more."
Feng Xiaotian, across from him, was utterly speechless.
He kept calling others trash and useless. Then why had Tang San across from him been defeated by Ye Tianyun?
And he was supposed to be the protagonist. Yet he still lost to Ye Tianyun.
Everyone else focused on the Sky Screen in the air. They wanted to know what Ye Tianyun had done to defeat the protagonist, Tang San, and establish himself as a force to be reckoned with.
The Live Broadcast Room continued its introduction of Ye Tianyun.
[Ye Tianyun gave up on meditation and instead studied a medical text he had come across by chance, learning about the human body. He wanted to use his own methods to create a new cultivation technique that would increase the speed of meditation.]
"Him? Create a meditation technique? Dream on."
Tang San sneered again.
If he couldn't do it, what made Ye Tianyun think he could?
If he really could, why would Tang San have secretly snuck into the Tang Sect's Scripture Library to steal the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record?
Why not create one himself?
Clearly, he couldn't.
Qian Renxue kept an eye on Tang San. Hearing his arrogant remarks, she couldn't help shaking her head in mockery:
"He thinks he's a genius, but he relies on stolen manuals. What could he possibly accomplish compared to someone else?"
Perhaps even the Live Broadcast Room couldn't stand it anymore. It launched a scathing attack right then and there.
[At last, with a medical manual and a meditation technique as his foundation, Ye Tianyun created an entirely new cultivation method: Guidance Method 1.0 Version.]
[By contrast, Tang San had stolen the Mysterious Heaven Skill manual. Although it increased his cultivation speed, his talent was far inferior to Ye Tianyun's astonishing brilliance.]
???
Tang San was covered in question marks. What? They were already mocking him?
So what if he'd stolen the Tang Sect's secret manual? Such a cultivation method could only be obtained by someone destined to find it. Besides, he'd had to work hard to steal it.
All in all, he was very talented.
The others, however, had never cared about Tang San. They were focused on the Guidance Method Ye Tianyun had created.
[Ye Tianyun created the Guidance Method. By using a series of special movements and adjusting his breathing, one could strengthen Bloodline Power, improve one's physique, and increase one's innate talent.]
In the scene, after creating the Guidance Method, Ye Tianyun began his first session of cultivation.
Everyone watched intently, including Tang San. Even though he looked down on Ye Tianyun, he was still eager to see the Guidance Method.
After all, it had helped Ye Tianyun defeat him, so he needed to learn it. Without the advantage of the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, he would have to master the Guidance Method.
Tang San was very confident in himself. He activated his Purple Demon Eye to its full extent and kept his eyes fixed on Ye Tianyun in the Live Broadcast Room, learning the Guidance Method.
"Everyone, eyes wide open. Watch carefully. This is a brand-new cultivation method."
Ning Fengzhi ordered everyone around him to keep their eyes on the screen.
Although he had the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, Ye Tianyun had defeated the Tang San from the neighboring timeline—and that Tang San was a protagonist, too. It proved that the Guidance Method Ye Tianyun had created was better.
Of course he wanted to learn the better method.
Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, the people of Sea God Island and the Clear Sky Sect, and the people of Spirit Hall all stared at Ye Tianyun on the screen.
They all wanted to learn the Guidance Method he had created.
But would the Live Broadcast Room really give it away for free?
Suddenly, a beam of light flashed, blinding everyone. They reflexively covered their eyes.
You people? You think you deserve to learn the Guidance Method?
Seriously, do you think you're worthy? Worth a damn?
Tang San, who had been using the Purple Demon Eye, let out a cry of agony:
"Ah..."
The Live Broadcast Room had always been fair and impartial. It never singled anyone out, not even Tang San, the notorious hypocrite.
To be fair, someone else was responsible for Tang San becoming a hypocrite. Everything he did was supposedly in the name of justice.
"Damn it!"
Tang San gritted his teeth in fury. He was so unlucky. He only wanted to see the Guidance Method. Did they really have to blind everyone?
After a long while, Tang San finally recovered. The others slowly opened their eyes as well, all at a loss for words.
Seriously, why wouldn't they let them watch the whole thing?
