Villain? No, I'll catch up with the protagonist after passing the civil service exam.

"Beep—Connection interrupted."

The piercing sound of a mechanical system crashing.

Like a death knell sweeping the globe, it resounded deep within the minds of hundreds of thousands of "chosen ones" around the world.

Those semi-transparent system panels that accompanied them in showing off, getting humiliated, and achieving success were like cheap soap bubbles that had been popped.

After a violent mosaic flash, it shattered completely into a stream of void data that scattered everywhere.

The terrifying nuclear explosion deep in the Pacific Ocean not only destroyed the super quantum computer's host system.

It also released a superdimensional electromagnetic pulse that was powerful enough to cover the entire globe.

This pulse ruthlessly severed the cloud computing power support for all nanochips.

The great purge has officially begun.

The scene at a top-tier Sotheby's underground auction in Shanghai.

"I'll offer 10 billion! I want this authentic Tang Bohu painting!"

A young man, dressed in a bespoke suit and exuding irresistible charm, arrogantly raised his bidding paddle.

His name is Li Gousheng, and he has only been bound to the "Infinite Tycoon System" for less than three days.

He was preparing to humiliate those rich kids who looked down on him at this gathering of celebrities.

He smugly slapped a virtual black card onto the table.

"Swipe your card! The PIN is six sixes! Pack it up and take it with you right now!"

However, the expected scene of shock and gasps of amazement did not materialize.

The verification machine on the auction platform emitted a piercing red alarm.

"Beep! Insufficient balance. This card is invalid."

Li Gousheng was stunned.

He desperately called out to the system in his mind, but received no response.

Something even more terrifying happened.

The system completely crashed.

The "perfect male god aura" and "temperament enhancement liquid" that were forcibly bestowed upon him receded like a tidal wave.

The custom-made suit suddenly became ill-fitting.

His once handsome face, as if sculpted by a knife and axe, collapsed rapidly like a melting wax figure.

In less than three seconds, he transformed back into that sleazy face covered in acne and oil.

Even his tall and straight figure has shrunk by ten centimeters.

"What...what's going on? Where's my money?! Where's my stunning beauty?!"

Li Gousheng touched his bulging beer belly in terror and let out a pig-like scream.

The wealthy people around looked at the greasy, lewd man who had suddenly transformed into a different person and immediately showed expressions of disgust and revulsion.

"Where did this lunatic come from, daring to cause trouble at Sotheby's? Security! Throw him out!"

Several burly foreign bodyguards pounced on them like wolves.

They pinned Li Gousheng, who was trying to struggle, to the ground and subjected him to a frenzied beating.

The same magical reversal is unfolding simultaneously in every corner of the world.

On the antique street in Yanjing.

A renowned gem appraiser, known as the "Golden Eye," is preparing to cut open a priceless rough stone.

As a result, his X-ray vision suddenly failed, and the top-grade ice jade he bought for 30 million turned out to be nothing but inferior white jade after being cut open.

The master was so angry that he lost his temper on the spot.

He coughed up a mouthful of blood, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.

In an underground boxing ring in Jiangnan.

The invincible boxing champion, who claimed to have fused with the "Martial Spirit of the Hegemon of Western Chu," was preparing to finish off his opponent with a left front kick.

As a result, the aura of power disappeared, and his limp fist was grabbed by his opponent.

His opponent delivered a backhand over-the-shoulder throw, breaking three of his ribs.

deprivation.

Cruel and merciless physical deprivation.

Those intelligence, physical strength, and charisma that were forcibly elevated by a substandard system have all been exposed for what they truly are.

The ugly man turned back into an ugly man.

The good-for-nothing turned back into a good-for-nothing who couldn't even find a job.

This pipe dream, built on fake code, has finally come to a tragic end.

And at this very moment, at the very heart of this storm.

Jinghai City.

Without the support of higher-dimensional energy, the "protagonist aftereffects" that ran rampant in this city erupted most violently.

The famous decadent night market in the south of the city.

The air was filled with the smell of barbecue smoke and cheap perfume.

In a dark alley without streetlights, a classic scene from a wish-fulfillment novel is unfolding.

Five street thugs carrying rusty steel pipes and sporting brightly colored hair.

They had a young and beautiful girl cornered against the wall.

"Little sister, why are you running off? Why don't you come have a drink with your brothers?"

The blond thug arrogantly swung the steel pipe in his hand, making a piercing sound as it cut through the air.

Just as the girl was about to desperately cry for help.

A young man dressed in cheap street vendor clothes and wearing flip-flops walked in stylishly from the alley entrance.

His name is Xiao Aotian.

Having married into the Su family for three years, he has endured endless scorn from his mother-in-law.

But his true identity is that of a ruthless and unparalleled person who has just been bound to the "Asura Dragon King System".

The girl who was surrounded in the corner was none other than his sister-in-law, Su Xue, who usually looked down on him the most!

This is practically a stage tailor-made for him by the system to show off!

Xiao Aotian felt his blood boiling.

"Let go of that girl."

Xiao Aotian put his hands in his pockets, a standard three-part mockery, three-part indifference, and four-part nonchalant crooked smile curving his lips.

"You have ten seconds to kneel down, kowtow, and apologize."

"I might consider leaving you with intact corpses."

The blond thug looked at him like he was an idiot.

Then, a burst of unrestrained laughter erupted throughout the alley.

"Did I hear that right? These days even scavengers dare to play the hero and save the damsel in distress?"

"Brothers, teach him a lesson! Break his legs!"

Five thugs raised steel pipes and charged menacingly at Xiao Aotian.

Su Xue was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she closed her eyes in despair.

However, Xiao Aotian remained completely calm.

He even stood there pretentiously, without moving an inch.

In his subconscious, as long as he activated the "Dragon God Body" granted by the system, he would be able to achieve his goal.

These thugs, who hadn't even reached the threshold of martial arts, couldn't even break through his protective true energy.

He wanted to use the most shocking physical counterattack to make his sister-in-law, who usually yelled at him, completely submit!

"System, activate True Qi Release for me!"

Xiao Aotian confidently issued the command in his mind.

He suddenly closed his eyes.

He exaggeratedly drew a Tai Chi starting posture with both arms in front of his chest.

He took a deep breath, focused his energy in his dantian, and let out a low growl.

"The Dragon King has descended! Protect yourself with true energy! Break through!"
