Gained 19 Resentment Value

"Anything the host does that triggers negative emotions in others can earn Resentment Value.

Once the host accumulates a certain amount of Resentment Value, it can be exchanged for items in the All Heavens Mall."

After seeing the system's explanation, Yun Shenwei felt rather strange. He involuntarily recalled similar things he had read about in certain novels before transmigrating, something that seemed to be called a negative emotion system.

"Hahaha, anyway, this is a good thing. I can make good use of it. With my abilities, I'm sure I can easily draw out other people's Resentment Value. Then I'll be able to thrive in this world. Although I possess the Heavenly Flame, Fighting God Flame, its level isn't high. If I want to become invincible in this world, leveling up is the true foundation."

After gaining the ability to collect Resentment Value, Yun Shenwei was quite happy. However, he was not blindly confident. He knew that only with a higher realm could one live more freely in this world.

If he remained at his current realm, he would ultimately be no match for some of the older generation's experts.

Exceptional talent was one thing, while great strength was another. Before absolute strength, all talent was useless. After all, this was a world where the strong were revered. Before one matured, one was still weak.

"If I didn't have the status of the Misty Cloud Sect's eldest disciple, and if I hadn't bragged about having a reclusive master, Pill King Gu He probably wouldn't have been so easy to talk to."

Yun Shenwei understood survival of the fittest, so he resolved to work even harder.

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

Over the past few days, Yun Shenwei had been busy cultivating while also testing the Resentment Value ability as much as possible.

After observing it over the past few days, Yun Shenwei discovered that any of his actions that provoked negative emotions in others could be converted into corresponding Resentment Value. Moreover, as the Extraordinary Romance System had said, hatred value could be converted into All Heavens Mall currency of equal value.

"Shenwei Senior Brother, are you there?"

Yun Shenwei was cultivating in his room that day when Nalan Yanran's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

This girl must have missed me...

Yun Shenwei immediately opened the door. Sure enough, he saw the young girl outside in a pink dress.

"Shenwei Senior Brother, why did you agree to the duel? I'm so worried about you."

The moment Nalan Yanran saw the man she loved, she threw herself into his arms, her eyes filled with resentment.

After Niu Xuante and Xin Daorong had angered her into leaving that day, she had furiously gone back into seclusion to cultivate for several days. When she emerged today, she happened to hear people discussing Yun Shenwei's wager with Pill King Gu He. It had worried her terribly, and she hurried over to find out what was going on.

"Ding! Resentment Value increased by 15 points!"

The mechanical notification sounded beside Yun Shenwei's ear. He had grown used to it over the past few days and was no longer surprised.

"Yanran, you don't need to worry too much. Since I agreed to it, I naturally have absolute confidence in winning. That so-called genius from the Gu Family thinks he can defeat me? Keep dreaming."

Yun Shenwei spoke calmly as he reached out and rubbed the girl's cheek. Seeing tears in the corners of Nalan Yanran's eyes, he felt deeply moved.

"But I heard that Gu Ming is already a three-star Dou Master, and he has unique insights into mastering combat techniques..."

Nalan Yanran was still very uneasy.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this. Let's go for a walk. It's rare for you to come see me after all these days."

Yun Shenwei clearly did not want to waste time on the matter, so he took the girl's hand and led her outside.

It was late spring. Flowers bloomed and fell, and the fragrance of blossoms could be smelled everywhere.

The two looked like an immortal couple, drawing the attention of many Misty Cloud Sect disciples along the way.

"Look, it's Senior Brother and Senior Sister Nalan Yanran."

"Oh my god, Senior Sister Nalan Yanran is so beautiful. I'm so jealous of Senior Brother."

"What a pity. If I had Senior Brother's abilities, perhaps Senior Sister Nalan Yanran would take a liking to me."

Many Misty Cloud Sect disciples who had been cultivating opened their eyes, their faces showing envy and jealousy.

It was no wonder. They were at just the right age for adolescence, when their longing for the opposite sex was at its strongest.

"Ding! Gained 15 Resentment Value!"

"Ding! Gained 18 Resentment Value!"

"Ding! Gained 23 Resentment Value!"

In just a short while, Yun Shenwei gained more than a hundred points of Resentment Value. Delighted, an idea suddenly struck him, and he kissed Nalan Yanran in public.

"Hey! You're bullying me again."

Nalan Yanran was a girl and rather thin-skinned, especially in public. Her little face immediately flushed red as she puffed out her cheeks and glared at Yun Shenwei.

"Ding! Gained 23 Resentment Value!"

Listening to the notification in his ear, Yun Shenwei gave an awkward smile, wondering if he had gone a little too far. Even Nalan Yanran had developed resentment toward him...

At the same time, the other Misty Cloud Sect disciples nearby erupted into wolfish howls at the sight.

Nalan Yanran was the goddess in their hearts, yet this goddess had been kissed right in front of them. They could do nothing about it, because the man was their Senior Brother! "Ah, my life is so bitter!"

"Heavens, just kill me already."

"Why must you torment me like this?"

The Misty Cloud Sect disciples felt as if their hearts were being twisted by knives.

"Ding! Gained 26 Resentment Value!"

"Ding! Gained 19 Resentment Value!"

"Ding! Gained 23 Resentment Value!"

As the system notifications continued ringing in Yun Shenwei's ears, his mood grew better and better.

"Liu Ling, is that the person who defeated you a few days ago? He doesn't look like much."

In the distance, a burly young man spoke.

"That's him. Brother Mo Wu, do not underestimate him. He is highly skilled and is said to be the number one among the younger generation of the Misty Cloud Sect. Both my younger brother Liu Wen and I were defeated by him."

Beside him, Liu Ling spoke furiously. When he looked toward Yun Shenwei, it was as though blazing flames burned in his eyes.

"He's nothing but an arrogant fool. I can't imagine Nalan Yanran would take a liking to him."

The young man named Mo Wu looked disdainful, then said to Liu Ling, "Don't worry about your matter. I'll deal with this brat for you."

With that, his figure flashed as he charged toward Yun Shenwei. In mere moments, the distance between them had narrowed to less than a few dozen meters.

"Shenwei Senior Brother, shall we go for a walk by the waterfall?"

Nalan Yanran had barely begun speaking when she suddenly sensed someone rushing rapidly toward them. At the same time, Yun Shenwei reacted as well. Instinctively, he pushed Nalan Yanran away, swiftly turned around, and threw a punch behind him.

"Boom..."

A violent collision resounded through the area, sending shockwaves rolling outward. Many Misty Cloud Sect disciples stared dumbfounded.
