Stunned.
Completely dumbfounded.
No one dared believe it was real.
"Young Friend Yang Chen, are you serious?" The crowd swallowed hard.
A breakthrough in merely two or three days?
Yang Chen knew this was difficult for them to believe, and smiled wryly. "Of course it is true. Though I cannot quite explain what is happening, my comprehension of Dao Intent may indeed be advancing somewhat faster."
Hearing Yang Chen's words, the group did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Somewhat faster? This was so fast it made them want to weep without tears, alright?
"I still can't quite believe it..."
"This..."
"Is this for real!"
Commander Bei Long had initially found it unbelievable as well, but upon careful thought, he felt it was very likely true.
"Young Friend Yang Chen may not be boasting. Since he could defeat Nirvana Stage opponents while in the Enlightenment Stage, that proves he truly possesses extraordinary talent. Moreover, Young Friend Yang Chen is still so young, which further proves his talent. Though I am somewhat envious as well, a genius is a genius. There is nothing to be done about it. It is perfectly normal that we cannot understand the things geniuses accomplish, isn't it?"
With Commander Bei Long putting it that way, everyone could more or less accept it.
Come to think of it, Yang Chen was a genius. How could the things that happened to a genius be measured by ordinary logic?
The only thing they could not accept was...

At this point, everyone could only choose to believe Yang Chen.
"There is nothing selfish about it.
