He listened to the notifications ringing in his ears.
Chen Zhian grinned, a radiant smile spreading across his face.
"Hahahaha!"
"That felt good! That really felt good!"
He turned to Chen Changqing, his eyes brimming with pride.

"So that ferocious beast at the ninth layer of Great Sage Realm was barely enough to fill a gap between my teeth?"
Chen Zhian's mouth twitched, and he inwardly marveled.
However.
When his gaze fell on the "Cultivation realm"
