Call me trash? I can instantly kill an S-level talent with just one yuan!

at the same time.

Deep in the forest.

Several students who had left returned.

They hid not far away, watching the raging fire, a deep sense of unease flashing in their eyes.

"Ye Chen is definitely in trouble this time."

"With such power, let alone Ye Chen, even a Qi and Blood Realm expert would die!"

"Will we still be able to get the bounty on Du Cheng's head?"

"Dream on! Someone died; you should be thankful you're not punished!"

"Don't worry, it wasn't us who did it. Punish that guy instead."

"That would be best."

"Shh! He's coming, let's go!"

As soon as he finished speaking...

The group quickly darted into the forest and disappeared.

Another side of the forest.

"Ye Chen!!!"

Du Cheng, carrying a long, black knife, slowly walked out with a sinister grin.

He slowly walked to the burning fire and stopped.

Looking at the weak and frail figure inside, a manic light gradually appeared in his eyes.

"Do you know how long I've been preparing for this day?"

"Do you know how scared I was when you tested and found out you had S-rank talent?"

His voice trembled slightly.

"I thought I was finished, I thought the Du family was finished too."

"But my dad told me not to be afraid."

"So what if you're S-rank? You're just an orphan with no connections. You're still human, and you'll die too!"

"As long as you 'accidentally' die during the practical assessment, no one will hold us accountable for a dead person."

His eyes turned fierce.

"Only when you are dead will I be the number one genius in Wangjiang City!"

"Only when you're dead will I be the center of attention!"

"I will only be at peace when you are dead."

"Ye Chen..."

"You must die!"

He slowly raised his knife, locking onto the blurry figure.

"Die!"

The black blade fell with lightning speed.

"clang!"

At the critical moment, a golden dragon claw suddenly extended flames.

He grabbed the blade!

Du Cheng's pupils contracted instantly.

"What?!"

As he finished speaking...

The figure in the flames slowly rose.

Golden scales spread from his arms to his entire body, covering every inch of his skin.

A faint dragon's might emanated from it.

"What...what is this?!"

Du Cheng's face turned deathly pale.

A figure bathed in golden light slowly emerged from the flames, his face cold.

It was Ye Chen.

At this moment, he was completely naked, his entire body except for his face was covered with golden dragon scales, even his penis was no exception.

A dazzling golden light slowly emanated.

"You really want to kill me."

From the moment he was engulfed in flames and the shadow of death loomed over him, he knew the man's purpose.

Not for shame, not for ranking.

He really wanted to...

Kill yourself!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

"Let me go!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

"Get out of here! Let me go right now!"

Du Cheng, in a state of frenzy, frantically pounded on Ye Chen's arm.

But his arm was like it was made of steel, and no matter how hard he attacked, it didn't budge in the slightest.

Suddenly, a figure descended from the sky with a terrifying aura!

"Ye Chen!"

Li Wan has arrived.

Ye Chen did not turn around; his gaze remained fixed on the deranged Du Cheng.

"tutor."

"You...you're alright?!"

Li Wan looked at Ye Chen, whose body was covered in golden scales, and a look of surprise appeared in her beautiful eyes.

She witnessed him being hit by a stun talisman.

Even if an ordinary Body Tempering Realm cultivator survives, they will often lose an arm or a leg and become crippled.

But at this moment, Ye Chen showed no signs of injury, and even his... area was well protected.

Upon seeing that… her face flushed slightly, and she quickly looked away.

"I activated my innate potential when I was near death, and only by overdrawing my body could I survive."

Ye Chen answered calmly.

This was the wording he had just come up with.

At the same time, he felt a pang of regret.

What activation of potential? My survival was all thanks to a Nine-Turn Golden Elixir!

Just as his consciousness was about to fade away, he used up his instant kill of the day, using his last bit of strength to successfully exchange for a Nine-Turn Golden Pill and swallow it.

Otherwise, he would be gone.

However, to his surprise, the effects of the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir far exceeded his expectations.

Not only were his injuries repaired in the blink of an eye and his dragon energy replenished, but his Qilin bloodline was also greatly activated. At this moment, his [Qilin Bloodline (Juvenile Form)] has evolved into [Qilin Bloodline (Adult Form)]!

Even his cultivation level skyrocketed to [Body Tempering Level 7 (Peak)]!

The drug's effects even allowed him to unleash the full power of the Great Perfection Dragon Transformation Technique!

"I see."

Upon hearing this, Li Wan breathed a sigh of relief.

This situation is rare; it can only be said that Ye Chen is really lucky.

However, her gaze immediately turned icy.

An S-rank assassination talent?!

As a mentor at Dragon Soul University, she has the right to act first and ask for permission later!

So the next second she said without hesitation:

"Kill him!"

Fear flashed wildly in Du Cheng's eyes.

"No! You can't kill me! If I die, the Du family will never let you go! Absolutely not!"

Ye Chen's lips curled up slightly.

"Do you think I'd be afraid of a family like yours that doesn't even have S-rank talent?"

Du Cheng panicked completely.

At this moment, he finally realized that Ye Chen was no longer the poor orphan he could bully at will, just half a month ago.

With Dragon Soul University backing them up, the entire Du family can't afford to offend them!

"I was wrong……"

"I was wrong! Ye Chen, please forgive me this once!"

"Please, please, let me go this time!"

"What do you want? Money? One hundred... no! Ten million!"

"Woman! Yes, Liu Ruyan, I'm breaking up with her right now! She's yours!"

"I'll be your slave from now on! I'll follow your every command! Please, let me go!"

Ye Chen looked at him.

His gaze was calm.

"Du Cheng, do you remember what you said to me at the hospital that day?"

Du Cheng was taken aback.

"It's too late to regret it now!"

"No! Don't!"

Du Cheng struggled desperately.

"Ruyan! Ruyan, save me!"

"Liu Ruyan!"

The edge of the forest.

Liu Ruyan stood beside a large tree.

She was holding a bunch of tokens; she had come to meet up with Du Cheng.

But what she saw now was Ye Chen, covered in golden scales, carrying Du Cheng with one hand, while Du Cheng desperately begged for mercy.

They were still calling her name.

Liu Ruyan's legs felt weak, and she couldn't take another step.

She looked at the "good-for-nothing" she had once abandoned, and the man she thought could lead her to enjoy wealth and luxury, clutching him in her hand like a dead dog.

At that moment, she realized she was wrong.

That's completely wrong!

But she dared not move, not even breathe, and dared not let anyone discover her whereabouts.

……

Ye Chen's lips curled into a sneer.

Thinking about women at a time like this?

His gaze swept over Du Cheng.

"I remember your talent is the ability to weaponize objects, right?"

"The book says that those who possess this type of talent all have a conversion source within them?"

After saying that, Ye Chen suddenly thrust his left hand forward.

With a soft thud!

His entire palm was embedded in his chest cavity, and blood gushed out.

"No!"

Du Cheng suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

Liu Ruyan, who was in the distance, covered her mouth and swallowed her tears, which flowed uncontrollably.

Ye Chen's hand searched inside Du Cheng's chest.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

"It should be this one!"

After saying that, he suddenly pulled his left hand back, bringing with it a gray energy sphere about the size of a thumb.

Du Cheng suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face filled with despair.

"No! Give it back to me! Give it back to me! Give it back to me!"

Du Cheng roared madly, his hands flailing wildly.

Ye Chen looked at him coldly.

Apply slight pressure with your left hand.

The gray energy ball gradually couldn't withstand the pressure.

Under Du Cheng's watchful gaze, it exploded with a bang, turning into energy and dissipating into the air.

This scene made both the audience inside and outside the theater gasp in shock.

The energy source of an A-level talent is gone just like that?

In this world, some talents and abilities are hidden in genes, while others are manifested as a source within the body.

Talent can be forcibly stripped away.

However, once separated from its host, the source will quickly dissipate.

Fortunately, if stored properly, it can be preserved.

Although it cannot be used for anything else, it is of great research value.

A Grade A talent source is definitely worth tens of millions!

But now, it's been crushed in one clenched fist.

The moment the sphere shattered, Du Cheng spat out a mouthful of blood, his vision went black, and he fainted.

Ye Chen threw it on the ground like trash.

After doing all this.

He slowly relaxed.

However, the dragon transformation state was not removed, and the powerful medicinal force of the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir continued to impact his limbs and bones, keeping him in peak condition at all times.

Furthermore, he was currently completely naked, and if he were to withdraw his dragon transformation, he would be exposed completely.

Li Wan didn't care about any of that.

She walked to Ye Chen's side and whispered, "Do you still want to continue?"

Ye Chen nodded.

Li Wan nodded. "Okay, then be careful from here on out."

"Um."

Li Wan is gone.

The assessment is still ongoing.

Ye Chen walked past Liu Ruyan.

The two exchanged a glance.

Liu Ruyan opened her mouth, as if to say something.

However, Ye Chen didn't give her that chance and turned to walk into the depths of the forest.

At this moment, Liu Ruyan truly realized...

What does it mean to only appreciate something after you've lost it?

But... it's always too late.

A few hours later.

The assessment is over.

The assessment results will be announced.

Ye Chen won first place with 192 tokens!

Du Cheng, with zero tokens, was expelled from school for intentional injury.

Instantly, the entire city of Wangjiang was in an uproar!

……

Studio.

Current viewership: 283 million!

Total number of bullet comments: 5683 million.

It's still refreshing at an astonishing rate.

"This result...is what everyone expected."

"Brother Chen is incredibly fierce!"

"I'm officially a fan now!"

"Did you see him fight those dozens of people at the end? It was so brutal!"

"I hereby declare! From this day forward, the survival rate of a Body Tempering Realm Hardened Shock Talisman is no longer 0!"

"Brother Chen, I love you! I love you so much! I will marry no one but you in this lifetime!"

"Brothers! I just got a tip-off and confirmed Ye Chen's talent. Guess what it is?"

"Say it!"

"Speak up! Don't force me to beg you!"

"Brother! I'm begging you!"

"Hahaha, it's a Qilin! Ye Chen possesses the Qilin Physique! It was personally confirmed by a Grandmaster from Dragon Soul University!"

"The Qilin?! It's one of the twelve ancient beasts' innate talents?!"

"Those scales... they're actually the scales of a Qilin."

"Holy crap! Does that mean he can evolve? I heard there was a powerful figure with the Qilin physique who later became an SS-rank!"

"..."

There was a moment of silence in the live stream.

"I'm begging for your help!"

"Could you please provide Brother Chen's home address?"

"I am his classmate. My home address is 500, my contact number is 800, and my personal information is packaged together for 1200. Only 100 copies will be sent. First come, first served."

"Give me one!"

"Pack it all up! I'll send it to you privately!"

"..."
