[Fictional World, Brain Depository]
"The next sparring match will be between Wang Ren of the School Team and Ye Li from Class Nine, Senior Year!"
"Both participants, please begin your warm-up. You will enter the arena in ten minutes!"
The piercing broadcast, the bright lights.
In the lounge, Ye Li looked at everything before him, his expression somewhat dazed.
Had he transmigrated?
Memories flooded his mind like a tide, helping him quickly sort out his current situation--
A high-martial world where martial arts flourished.
The previous owner of this body was dull and honest, with average talent, a happy family, and a childhood sweetheart.
At first glance, this seemed like a configuration for a winner in life, but based on the memories he received, the previous owner hadn't lived a happy life.
He was currently here to participate in a school-level sparring match...
"Ye Li! The opponent in this match is my boyfriend. You're no match for him, so forfeit quickly, understand!"
Just then, an angry, sharp voice came from not far away, interrupting his thoughts.
Ye Li rubbed his head and looked up.
Standing at the lounge entrance was a young girl in a blue floral dress.
Her sweet face was filled with impatience as she stared directly at Ye Li.
The moment he saw her, Ye Li's slightly unfocused pupils sharpened, and relevant memories surfaced in his mind.
Shen Lian, the previous owner's childhood sweetheart.
However, unlike the childhood sweethearts in anime who harbored secret crushes.
This Shen Lian not only often belittled the previous owner and elevated herself but also enjoyed brainwashing him with various lectures.
In short, she was a high-martial version of a PUA Master...
Recalling this, Ye Li frowned slightly.
Damn it.
Why did the matchmaking system give him such a childhood sweetheart?
"Ye Li, I'm talking to you!"
Seeing that he remained silent, Shen Lian, standing at the door, frowned. The impatience on her face intensified, and she said coldly:
"Wang Ren is a substitute on the School Team, with a martial cultivation of First-Tier Level Five. You, who only entered First-Tier Level Three two days ago, how can you possibly fight him?"
"I'm telling you to forfeit for your own good, understand!"
"So?" Ye Li's head throbbed with waves of pain, and he rubbed his forehead.
According to the memories, today was the school-level sparring match hosted by Linhai First High School, where School Team members would spar against registered ordinary students.
What made it special was that regardless of victory or defeat, both parties in the sparring match would receive generous Spirit Medicine subsidies.
The previous owner had managed to snatch one of the few available spots, which was a good thing.
But who would have thought he would be matched against Shen Lian's boyfriend, Wang Ren.
The rules of the sparring match explicitly stated that if one party forfeited, the other would receive double the Spirit Medicine subsidy.
In addition, it would affect their future academic records.
This was to prevent ordinary students from becoming cowardly fighters.
After all, how could a martial artist who feared battle in a match face the terrifying异兽 (monsters/alien beasts) that coveted humanity in the future?
Shen Lian running over at this juncture to tell Ye Li to forfeit clearly showed she didn't care about his future.
Truly disgusting!
Ye Li's frown deepened.
"So? So you should forfeit quickly!"
Seeing Ye Li's delay in handing over his participation token, Shen Lian grew anxious and, at the same time, felt a hint of confusion.
Normally, a single word from her would make this tool obediently do as she said.
What was going on today?
"I'll say it again, Wang Ren needs Spirit Medicine to break through recently. Use your subsidy for him first!"
Shen Lian's face completely darkened. She reached out directly towards Ye Li, frowning and urging:
"Your participation token, give it to me quickly!"
"Idiot."
Ye Li sneered and slapped away Shen Lian's outstretched hand.
The previous me was willing to dote on Shen Lian; that was the previous me's business.
But I'm a normal person, how could I put up with this kind of treatment?
At the same time, a phantom light screen suddenly appeared before Ye Li's eyes.
[Ding!]
[Detected you verbally abusing your childhood sweetheart of over ten years! Malice Points +500!]
[Malice System loading complete!]
[In this High Martial world, the strong must humiliate the weak!]
[Perform system-recognized malicious acts to gain corresponding Malice Points!]

[Current Malice Points: 500]
[Malice Points can be injected into relevant entries to increase their progress]
[Commentary: Your notorious reputation is virtually unknown]
Huh?!
Ye Li was stunned at first, then a flicker of spirit arose in his eyes.
Is this... my Golden Finger?
"Stupid, idiot?!"
Hearing Ye Li's words, Shen Lian's astonished voice echoed in the lounge.
Disbelief surfaced on her pretty face. After realizing what he said, she angrily retorted:
"You've really turned rebellious, Ye Li! I'm telling you, I don't have time to mess around with you now! Hurry up and give me the participation token!
"Otherwise, be careful or I'll never speak to you again!"
Good, double happiness.
Ye Li casually put away the panel and chuckled, "You slut, you think you can decide the winner for me? Is your brain filled with crap?"
[Verbally abused childhood sweetheart of ten years, Malice Points +300!]
"...?"
Shen Lian froze on the spot, her expression utterly stunned.
She never expected Ye Li's attitude to be so vile, it felt unreal.
Slut?
He actually dared to call me a slut?!
Shen Lian looked at Ye Li in disbelief, her lips trembling slightly as she shouted, "You, you, you... you dare to curse me?!"
"I'm cursing you, you idiot," Ye Li frowned slightly and said calmly, "I'm about to go on stage and beat your boyfriend to a pulp. As for you, turn left outside and go to Linhai Hospital to see a neurologist!"
[Verbally abused childhood sweetheart of ten years, Malice Points +200!]
"I'm not sick!"
Shen Lian was enraged by Ye Li's mocking gaze, as if he were looking at an imbecile.
Her face flushed to the point of bleeding, her chest heaving violently.
She stared at Ye Li for a good two to three seconds.
Then, she took a deep breath, gradually calming down, and said in a chilling voice, "Keep acting tough. Anyway, as soon as you dare to step onto the stage, Wang Ren will definitely beat you until you question your entire life!"
Her words were laced with threats.
With that, she turned and walked out of the lounge.
On her way to the spectator stands, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became, grinding her molars.
Damn it—
"A quiet person with hardly any friends, doesn't he know I've always taken good care of him?"
"How ungrateful!"
"You still want to defeat my boyfriend? That's hilarious. You'd be lucky if you weren't crippled!"
In the lounge.
Pulling his gaze away from where Shen Lian had been standing, Ye Li silently took out his phone and quickly blocked all of her contact information.
He chose to keep his distance from such brain-dead individuals whose brains were underdeveloped and whose cerebellums were completely undeveloped.
Afterward, he summoned the system panel and focused his gaze on it.
[Current Malice Points: 1000 points]
This was the reward for humiliating Shen Lian just now.
The system's judgment of malicious acts seemed quite strict.
The reason he gained so many Malice Points was likely because the previous owner had harbored a secret crush on Shen Lian for ten years, pouring a vast amount of his heart and soul into it.
Therefore, a few short sentences had caused Shen Lian to completely break down.
It could only be said that the shot fired by the previous owner in his youth had hit himself squarely between the eyes today.
Less than five minutes remained until the match.
Ye Li's eyes flickered.
According to his memories, the gap in strength between him and Wang Ren was significant.
Before he understood the specific value of "Malice Points," the correct course of action was to save them, to avoid wasting them.
Therefore, his best course of action in this sparring match was to endure a few rounds and then concede.
After all, he would still receive Spirit Medicine subsidies even if he lost.
According to his memories, the previous owner had originally planned to do just that.
However...
The thought of Shen Lian's attitude ignited an unnamable fire in Ye Li's heart.
He was not the previous owner.
He genuinely detested people like Shen Lian and Wang Ren from the bottom of his heart.
If he lost here, no matter how he tried to comfort himself afterward, Ye Li would feel disgusted.
After enduring the faces of those damned leaders in his previous life, he was going to act subserviently after transmigrating?
Ridiculous!
All I know is that I'm going to go on a killing spree!
Ye Li sneered, waved a hand, and a light blue screen quickly unfolded before him.
"Patience is a virtue of mortals, and timidity is the greatest taboo of a gambler."
"System, I'm going all-in!"
Buzz!!
As the Malice Points were rapidly consumed, the progress numbers for the two martial skills began to jump wildly!
