Ke Ziheng was dumbfounded by what he saw.
He could accept being injured with playing cards, since there are some skilled players online who can use their skill to throw cards and embed them into wooden boards.
Although we knew the Nam was definitely faulty, it proved that a well-thrown deck of cards could indeed cause injury.
But Ling Yi's is a little Taiyi; it doesn't seem like a skill, but rather more like a coincidence.
The playing cards flew out limp and posed no threat, but just as they were about to hit the ground, a sudden Gale blew in through the corridor window.
Gale whipped up the playing cards that were about to hit the ground, sending them swirling and dancing in the corridor. Then came a series of screams as the six burly men were covered in playing cards, their faces, hands, and ankles all stuck together.
Although the wound wasn't deep, the scene still looked incredibly bizarre and frightening.
"This is too much of a coincidence, how tragic," Ke Ziheng muttered.
Ling Yi ignored the six people in front of him and turned around to close the door.
"I'm going to start my live stream. Don't say anything next to me." Ling Yi said, walking to the live streaming equipment, logging into his account, and preparing for today's live stream.
"Aren't you worried about your safety? How about I ask my dad to find you some bodyguards?" Ke Ziheng asked.
"Need not!"
Actually, Ling Yi was somewhat annoyed at the moment, not because he was annoyed with Ke Ziheng or those who wanted to take revenge on him.
Instead, even though he could have done so much in this world, Yin Wanqing insisted that he leave.
Does he have to give up just because he thinks readers might not like this kind of world?
Besides, he chose random time travel, meaning he could encounter any world. Does that mean he'll abandon the project if he thinks readers might not like it when he encounters similar worlds in the future?
But he knew that Yin Wanqing was right, and he never doubted Yin Wanqing analytical abilities.
But I'm just not happy.
"What do you think is the root cause of the internet becoming so chaotic?" Ling Yi asked Ke Ziheng, who was sitting obediently on the sofa.
"Money, it's basically capital." As the son of a top tycoon, he had that much insight.
"Yes, capital. If you were given enough power, what would you do?" Ling Yi asked again.
"You mean purging the internet? There's no really good way, unless you do what you did in your livestream and expose all the darkness."
"But..." Ke Ziheng pointed to the doorway.
"What a damn nuisance!" Ling Yi muttered, tossing the live-streaming equipment aside and unsealing his power.
A glint flashed in his eyes, and all of Ke Ziheng's memories and past experiences were clearly displayed before him.
This person seems alright.
Although he is a second-generation rich kid, he doesn't have the typical problems associated with them.
He's just too addicted to games, but that's not a problem, as long as his mindset is right.
Ling Yi Void out and grabbed a ball of colorful light in his hand.
This is the golden finger of Causality Control.
This is a Manifestation Power of Laws, with a relatively simple function.
Ling Yi thought for a moment, then infused the Law of Faith and the Law of Force into it, casually creating a soul consciousness to upgrade his cheat ability.
Then, while Ke Ziheng was completely bewildered, Ling Yi implanted the ball of light into his soul.
Ling Yi's methods were too casual and crude; how could A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality like Ke Ziheng withstand such a drastic change in his soul? The excruciating pain from the depths of his soul caused him to faint.
When Ke Ziheng woke up again, a mechanical voice echoed in his mind.
" Causality Control System successfully bound..."
"Generate system interface..."
"System interface generated."
A semi-transparent window interface appeared in front of Ke Ziheng.
Host: Ke Ziheng!
System: Causality Control!

When Ke Ziheng finished understanding the system and came back to his senses, he heard a pleasant female voice sounding beside him.
"Have you finished familiarizing yourself with the system?"
"Finished getting acquainted... Um, who are you? Where's Ling Yi?" Ke Ziheng asked, somewhat surprised, looking at the beautiful woman in front of him.
" Ling Yi has left. My name is Yin Wanqing. Congratulations on becoming the Protagonist of this world. Also, welcome to the Myriad Worlds Protagonist Legion."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
" Ling Yi has handed you the cheat code; you are now the Protagonist of this world. However, the level of your world is too low."
Ke Ziheng was even more confused. He blinked and looked at Yin Wanqing with a question mark on his face.
Yin Wanqing took out a novel and placed it in front of him. "You'll understand after you finish reading it. First, familiarize yourself with the functions of the cheat system in this world and improve your strength. I'll come back to find you in three years."
After speaking, a vortex of World Passage appeared behind Yin Wanqing. She turned around and walked into it, disappearing along with the Teleport vortex.
"..."
After a long pause, Ke Ziheng came to his senses, picked up the novel on the table, and began to read it.
Two hours later, Ke Ziheng put down the novel, gave a wry smile, and said, "So Ling Yi is Big Shot who can travel through Myriad Worlds."
He looked up at the live-streaming equipment in the room and couldn't help but laugh...
At this moment, Ling Yi had already appeared in the new world.
"This is probably the fastest time travel I've ever done. Would you call this a bad ending? This world needs to be more serious."
At this moment, Ling Yi is a university teacher, teaching computer English.
This world is clearly a modern urban world, a fictional Parallel World, and the date is September 25, 2010.
Ling Yi's schedule is not tight, with only about six or seven classes a week.
However, since the start of the semester, this morning was Ling Yi's first class of the semester.
He teaches freshmen who had just finished military training two days ago and only started formal classes yesterday.
In multimedia classroom 302 on the third floor of the main teaching building, Ling Yi was organizing teaching materials while waiting for class to begin.
Because Ling Yi arrived early, there weren't many students in the classroom, only a dozen or so scattered around.
Three girls were chatting in the first row, not far from the podium.
" Xia Wei, didn't Peng Yang ask for your phone number? Did he add you as a friend?"
"He only asked for my phone number because he lost a bet," the girl named Xia Wei said, frowning.
So, did you two add each other as friends or not?
"He did add me, but he only explained the background and then that was it." Xia Wei took out her phone, opened the Heaven, and showed the chat content to the two of them.
The round-faced girl to Xia Wei's left snatched the phone, then sent the Peng Yang contact information to herself, chuckling, "I wonder how many girls want Peng Yang's contact information right now. Selling it for a hundred at a time will definitely make a fortune."
Xia Wei said helplessly, " Zhuo Xiaomei, that's enough! Aren't you just ruining things? How awkward will it be when we meet again?"
"If we get the consent of the person involved, it won't be awkward. Oh wow, Peng Yang accepted my friend request. I'll ask him now if we're interested in doing this deal."
"Do you think he'll agree?" Xia Wei asked with a smile.
As Zhuo Xiaomei sent the message, she said, "Who can say for sure?"
A moment later, Zhuo Xiaomei suddenly laughed and showed the chat content to Xia Wei.
"Look, they've agreed. But this guy's too greedy; he wants 80% of the profits!"
Xia Wei looked at the reply on her phone and shook her head slightly in disappointment. "I didn't expect Peng Yang to be this kind of person."
At this moment, the girl with a cool and aloof demeanor to Xia Wei's right suddenly spoke up, " Peng Yang shouldn't be that kind of person. This might be someone else replying using his phone."
" Yuxin, why do you say that?" Zhuo Xiaomei asked.
"People who practice Ancient Martial Arts are not short of money," the girl named Yuxin explained.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Peng Yang's account replied with another message, roughly saying that it was just a joke from his roommates and that he should never sell his contact information.
Zhuo Xiaomei and Xia Wei both looked at Yuxin and gave her a thumbs up.
"I wish I could learn Ancient Martial Arts. Peng Yang is so powerful; he even easily defeated the coach. Yuxin, you also practice Ancient Martial Arts; can you do it?"
"That coach is just an ordinary person. I won't need a second move to beat him."
" Yuxin, how about I become your apprentice? If I learn Ancient Martial Arts, I can just carry any boy I fancy away without asking permission, and he won't even have a chance to refuse."
"Pfft!" Xia Wei was amused by Zhuo Xiaomei's words.
Are you trying to turn into a female hooligan?
"You guys are like well-fed men who don't know the hunger of starving men. To this day, I've never been pursued by anyone, never been in a relationship. The only guy who's willing to talk to me is my buddy, and he already has a girlfriend."
" Later, he even broke off all contact with me for his girlfriend."
"If I didn't go and rob it, I'd probably be singing 'Single Love Song' every day for four years of college."
Xia Wei was amused by Zhuo Xiaomei and giggled, while Yuxin shook her head and said, "Cultivating Ancient Martial Arts requires aptitude, and even if you have the aptitude, you still need your sect's permission."
" The Ancient Martial Arts is extremely strict. If it is passed on in private, the sect will severely punish the practitioner. At best, their cultivation will be abolished; at worst, they will be executed!"
Zhuo Xiaomei shuddered. "That scary?"
"There's no other way. The destructive power of Ancient Martial Arts is too great. If it's left unchecked, the consequences would be unimaginable."
"So, in your Ancient Martial Arts, what level can the most powerful achieve?"
Yuxin thought for a moment and said, "You all saw that video of an old man carrying a cart on his shoulders online a while ago, right?"
"Isn't that fake?" Xia Wei asked.
"That's true, that old man is my martial uncle..."
