I Just Wanted to Live, but I Somehow Became Better Than the Main Character Book 2: Chapter 4: Bully

The ones maintaining order were two stewards at the early stage of Nascent Soul Realm, responsible for organizing battles for over two hundred years. Even they had never seen such a scene before a few disciples at the middle stages of the Nascent Soul Realm had co. Those who don’t know might think an elder was coming to impart knowledge.

However, they also understood Ye Yong’s value. To be honest, he wasn’t really much lower than the Elders. As long as he doesn’t die prematurely and has enough ti to grow, he will undoubtedly beco a strong Void Realm expert and even have the chance to reach the Great Ascension Realm and Saint Realm.

If the future seems too distant and full of uncertainties, then they could point to sothing that happened recently. He had sched together with elders and killed thousands of demonic sect disciples, which was a real achievent. Even the stewards themselves didn’t have that kind of ability, let alone the disciples.

It would be great if Ye Yong could join our Sword Pavilion Hall. It’s such a waste of his exceptional talent for him to enter the Music and Art Hall, How can playing the flute and painting drawings be better than slicing a mountain with a sword? Fortunately, we have a Qin Shing among the new disciples, who also has a promising future. Otherwise, the quiet and unassuming Music and Art Hall would steal all the lilight.

With a silent sigh, the two stewards stopped thinking about irrelevant things and began to direct the progress of the battles. There were more than 3,000 new disciples in the Sword Pavilion Hall this year, more than twice as many as in previous years due to the secret realm. Half of the people who ca were from other continents.

The battle venue was divided into ten areas, each with a list of participants. First, battles were held between those of the sa cultivation level.

Ye Yong didn’t dare to look at Long Tian too much because this guy was too sensitive. Back during the assessnt of the Heavenly Luo Sect, he was detected even though he just glanced at him for a bit. With more than 3,000 new disciples present, looking at Long Tian was basically telling him that Ye Yong was paying special attention to him.

Ye Yong currently has had no contact with Long Tian so far, and Long Tian hadn’t done anything remarkable, so Ye Yong had to try to treat him like air; otherwise, it would be troubleso if he beca suspicious.

Long Tian had shown his cultivation to be at the 3rd layer of the Foundation Establishnt Realm, so he was in the 3rd area, while Ye Mao was in the 7th area.

Hmm? Ye Yong couldn’t help but frown. How did that spirited young man end up in the 7th area? The 7th area ant that he was at the 7th layer of the Foundation Establishnt Realm…

The competition allowed disciples to fight with a biggest difference of 3 layers. In the novel, Long Tian was at the “3rd layer” of the Foundation Establishnt Realm, like he was now, while Ye Mao was at the 6th layer of the Foundation Establishnt Realm, so they were arranged to compete against each other in the end. But in reality, Ye Mao was at the 7th layer of the Foundation Establishnt Realm, which ant they wouldn’t be matched against each other. But why?

Ye Yong recalled that before coming to the Heavenly Luo Sect, he gave each of the younger generations of the Ye Family a bottle of Beyond Grade Spirit Gathering Pills. Although Ye Mao is a brain-dead villain, villains had to have good talent, for it to be satisfying for the male lead to step on. They were idiots, yes, but there were no problems with their cultivation.

The effect of a Beyond Grade Spirit Gathering Pill was several tis stronger than that of a Perfect Grade Spirit Gathering Pill. Even a pig could break through after eating it. However, Ye Yong was an oddball with his eighth spiritual vein, which had an insane appetite. He ate Beyond Grade Spirit Gathering Pills as his als and still improved at an extrely slow pace.

In any case, the current developnt was good news. An unplanned event changed the conflict between Ye Mao and Long Tian. However, this didn’t an that Ye Yong could be at ease. As long as they were in the sa hall, conflicts were likely to occur. He never doubted the male lead’s innate ability to attract trouble and the villain’s ability to cause trouble.

Ye Yong has decided to draw all of Ye Mao’s hatred towards himself, leaving him no ti to pay attention to Long Tian.

…

The competition continued until dusk. Although 3,000 people sounded like a lot, divided into 10 regions, the strong were quickly chosen.

Long Tian was the strongest among those at the 3rd layer of the Foundation Establishnt Realm. He was hiding his cultivation level, so he was basically bullying little kids, so the result didn’t surprise Ye Yong at all.

The people around him didn’t pay much attention to Long Tian soone at the 3rd layer of the Foundation Establishnt Realm was weak. If they were to discuss soone, it would be soone at the 7th layer of the Foundation Establishnt or above.

For example, Ye Mao.

He was indeed born to be a villain. Just a few days after breaking through to the 7th layer of the Foundation Establishnt Realm, he had firmly occupied the position of the strongest Foundation Establishnt Realm 7th layer new disciple. At the mont of victory, his expression was so proud that it almost broke through the sky.

“Is that cultivator at the 7th layer of the Foundation Establishnt Realm Ye Yong’s family mber?”

“It seems like he’s Ye Yong’s older cousin, older by 2 years.”

“It’s quite impressive to reach the 7th layer of the Foundation Establishnt Realm at the age of 20, but compared to Ye Yong, he’s far behind in both talent and looks.”

“Indeed, Ye Yong’s looks surpass those of the younger generations in the Ye Family by a lot.”

Listening to the discussion among his senior brothers and sisters, Ye Mao instantly fell from the sky, smashing through the ground and into the core of the earth. His expression was even more uncomfortable than if he had eaten feces.

Am I, Ye Mao, not worthy of having a na? Did Ye Yong win the fight, or did I win the fight? Why the hell is everyone discussing Ye Yong?

Ye Mao hadn’t expected that even though he won, he wouldn’t receive any praise and was instead compared to soone else, and in the end, others didn’t even discuss him anymore and praised Ye Yong instead.¹

Clenching his fists, Ye Mao’s face twisted with anger.

Today’s fight had temporarily co to an end, and the next day would begin the cross-layer battle. Tomorrow, I, Ye Mao, will challenge soone at the 10th level of the Foundation Establishnt Realm! I will defeat soone at the 10th layer to prove that I’m not worse than Ye Yong!

Ye Yong didn’t know what Ye Mao had gone through. He only saw that Ye Mao looked arrogant and confident but suddenly changed to an expression of pain and left with a dejected look.

Indeed, the world of a spirited young man is incomprehensible.

…

When Ye Yong returned to Echo Mountain, it was already evening. He could have left earlier, but the sword cultivator senior sisters were too enthusiastic and insisted on him finishing his al before leaving. Liang Xiao Rou didn’t help and instead just hmphed and shook her head, looking like she didn’t want to be bothered, a textbook tsundere.

As for the al the sword cultivator senior sisters made… although it wasn’t bad, it definitely wasn’t as good as the cooking of the senior and junior sisters at the Music and Art Hall. After all, one side practiced martial arts, while the other side studied literature. Each had their own strengths.

As soon as he entered the mansion, Ye Yong saw Wu Xue running hastily towards her room like a startled rabbit that got caught searching for food.

How could Ye Yong let her get her way? He was very petty.

Swimming Dragon Steps! The terrifying Earth Grade movent technique!

Ye Yong instantly blocked Wu Xue’s path. Wu Xue dodged left and right, but there was no way to escape. She was very anxious and finally covered her face in place, as if everything would be fine if she couldn’t see anything. She beca an ostrich.

Doing this makes want to tease you even more. Ye Yong pulled Wu Xue’s hand away forcefully while smiling.

Wu Xue’s face was red, and her gaze wandered aimlessly. She couldn’t keep her gaze on Ye Yong. Her eyes flickered with tears, and anyone who didn’t know ould think Ye Yong was bullying her, though he actually was.

“Lil Xue~ why aren’t you looking at ?”

Wu Xue didn’t answer. Her heart was beating extrely fast, and she admitted that what she did in the morning was too exciting, but who could bla her? She couldn’t control herself when Ye Yong said those things to her.

“You don’t want to look at , I’ll make you look at .” Ye Yong leaned down and pressed his forehead against Wu Xue’s.

Wu Xue trembled all over.

But that wasn’t all. Ye Yong even lightly rubbed his nose against Wu Xue’s little nose, and they could feel each other’s breaths.

“Young… Young Master…” Wu Xue’s lips were slightly parted, her voice soft, her eyes hazy, and she was anxious, expectant, and longing.

However, in the next second, Ye Yong quickly retreated, pretending as if nothing had happened. “Hm? Lil Xue, did you call ? Is there sothing you need?”

Wu Xue blinked, seemingly realizing sothing, then burst into tears, “Young Master is a bully!”
