• Ling Yi knocked Long Xiaotao down twice, crushed his ribs underfoot, and sent his two frightened roommates carrying him out of the dorm.

After reaching Martial Venerable, Ling Yi discovered that his system only granted experience once a year and chose to attend Hao City Advanced Martial Academy rather than move to Dragon Capital. Powerful figures decided not to approach him after Emperor Chi warned them off, but three girls from Dragon Capital arrived in Hao City and tried to secure a place in Ling Yi’s manor.
