The reason he had been able to hold out with his willpower for over seven hundred breaths was, more than anything, because his mindset remained calm.
No matter what he faced, he could maintain sufficient composure and tranquility. At the very least, he would not lose his temper over a few words from others. That was what true strength of will looked like.
Of course, he would still remember what these people had done.
Revenge was out of the question, but they certainly could not become friends.
As he pondered this, Yang Chen began considering his own mission.
He was confident he could complete the vast majority of bounty missions. With his life and death Dao Intent and space-time Dao Intent, he could accomplish things several people together could not.
However, the point rewards for those bounty missions were too low, making it difficult to satisfy Yang Chen's requirements.
This caused Yang Chen to set his sights on the more difficult plaque-unveiling missions.
The plaque-unveiling missions on the second floor were inherently more difficult than those on the first floor. That was precisely why such missions were generally completed by teams.
Take Gu Renjie, for example.
Now that Yang Chen had set his eyes on plaque-unveiling missions, he naturally seemed rather out of place in the eyes of others.
Yang Chen did not care what others thought. He only followed his own judgment.
And sure enough...
These plaque-unveiling missions did meet his requirements. The points were not a problem, and although the difficulty was higher and they took longer, they were not impossible for him to complete.
