373. How did it go from always being confident to being occasionally confident? [First update]_1

Ying Wei evaluated Lin Yi's appearance from an extremely objective perspective, or rather, from a straight man's perspective.

Before this, he thought the most handsome man was their team captain, Davis, but upon seeing Lin Yi, Ying Wei suddenly felt that Davis was nothing!

Compared to Lin Yi, it was simply a one-sided dimensional suppression!

Ying Wei "gulped" and swallowed his saliva, walking towards the stage with some trepidation.

Prior to arriving, Davis had briefly introduced him to the rules, which were to attack the person sitting on the stage and receive amazing rewards as a result.

Ying Wei undoubtedly believed in it, for even His Majesty the King was here, so there was no reason for it to be fake.

The reason for his nervousness now was because of the aura emanated by the person on the stage, an all-encompassing oppressive aura that made even Ying Wei, who studied at the Xingluo Imperial Academy and had seen much of the world, feel somewhat at a loss.

"Senior Lin Yi, may I assist him in the attack? Judging by his damage, I suspect the outcome might not be ideal..."

Dai Ben suddenly stepped forward and said.

Lin Yi: "Discuss the methods of assisted attack after you return, and implement them tomorrow. To save time today, let him come by himself."

"Yes!"

Dai Ben stepped back.

His Majesty actually wants to help me attack, what an honor... Ying Wei thought excitedly, when suddenly he froze, realizing another more terrifying fact, even His Majesty the King referred to this young man who didn't look older than me as Senior?? What the heck!

Ying Wei suddenly stood in place, doubting himself.

Am I really supposed to attack someone of such high status? How can these people dare to go through with it?!

"Don't waste time, or I'll cancel your qualification to attack for today."

Lin Yi said calmly.

At that moment, Ying Wei felt two murderous gazes coming from behind, making him feel as if he were on pins and needles as though he could be killed by the two ferocious tigers behind him the next second. Without time to consider, Ying Wei immediately charged onto the stage.

"I'm going to at-attack! I'll attack now!"

But Davis had only given him a brief overview of the rules, and Ying Wei had no idea that the damage and the award were proportional, nor the precondition that the follow-up damage must exceed the initial damage.

Therefore, he prepared to use his strongest skill straight away. Of course, it made no real difference, because even with the strength of four soul rings, Ying Wei's maximum ability would not be enough to pick the teeth of the powerhouses present.

As he released his Martial Soul, Ying Wei's already robust body began to inflate like it was being pumped up, and his muscles swelled inch by inch. The bellowing of a water buffalo echoed around him, deafening.

Soon, the fourth purple Soul Ring rose from his body.

Now expanded to a size of three to four meters, Ying Wei's eyes suddenly turned blood red, and two solid, huge bull horns appeared on his head, pointing straight ahead.

At the same time, a row of four identical figures appeared around his body.

"Fourth Soul Skill! Bull Charge!"

The number replicated equaled the quantity of his Soul Rings; with four rings, that meant four clones of himself.

This move, in a competition, would undoubtedly send anyone who couldn't fly being smashed out of the arena by his sheer brutality.

This was the "sweeper" of the battlefield.

Five Ying Wei figures, whose sizes had expanded to three to four meters, were puffing out white breath through their nostrils. Ying Wei rubbed his right leg backwards against the platform and immediately charged forward.

Just as Lin Yi was ready to take the hit, the advancing Ying Wei suddenly stopped, his body collapsing as if it had gone soft.

He immediately released his soul skill, sweating profusely, and said nervously, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I was out of it just now! I'll try again!"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he returned to his starting position, taking deep breaths repeatedly.

Too terrifying, the closer I got the stronger the aura was... how could the others dare to attack under these circumstances?

Ying Wei took several deep breaths and finally regained a bit of self-confidence. He repeated the same operation, and five robust "Bulls" charged at Lin Yi once again.

What made Lin Yi's mouth twitch was that this guy actually closed his eyes in fear at the last moment... Your Martial Soul is called Inflating Water Buffalo, yet you don't inflate at all! How timid can you be to get into Xingluo Imperial Academy?

When the attack ended, Ying Wei completely threw off balance from the rebound force produced by Lin Yi's body, flew backward, and tumbled before coming to a stop. He awkwardly sprawled on the ground, took a moment to recover, then quickly got to his feet and hastily apologized to Lin Yi, "I'm sorry! Sen... Senior Lin Yi!"

It seems everyone apologizes after each attack...

After all, they were attacking such an esteemed person!

Ying Wei wasn't idle; his gaze wandered around. Could that dignified and beautiful woman possibly be Bi Bidong?

His eyes fixed intently on Martial Soul Hall.

This place... truly is filled with powerhouses!

What Ying Wei didn't know was that behind him, there were ferocious beasts from Aquipeia Forest.

As expected, there was no Damage Rebound from the attack this time.

Lin Yi looked at the panel.

[Blood loss: 7986]

[Remaining Health: 899886379846]

[Damage Grade: Yellow]

[Random Reward: Strong Self-Confidence]

[Host Reward: Strong Self-Confidence (No Critical Hit)]

A Yellow-level reward... they gave self-confidence?

There wasn't even a description to explain the reward.

As for the self-confidence in the host reward section, Lin Yi planned to leave it in the warehouse to gather dust. He never lacked for self-confidence; it was completely unnecessary to integrate it.

Lin Yi said to Ying Wei, "The damage was 7986, Yellow level, and your reward is strong self-confidence."

"The reward is as the name suggests, an ability that will boost your self-confidence. Do you want to integrate it?"

After speaking, Lin Yi picked up a yellow glowing orb from his hand. The color of the reward orb was as rare as a jackpot.

Ying Wei's expression went from surprise to eagerness. If he could attain an ability that would boost his self-confidence in this environment, then he absolutely wanted it!

"Yes! Yes!"

Just as Lin Yi was about to toss the orb over, he suddenly noticed an additional line of text in the reward description section.

[Reward effective for ten minutes at a time, activates once every ten minutes]

Does this mean… is it supposed to give Ying Wei ten minutes of confidence? And after those ten minutes pass, will he return to his former state? Then stay in his original state for another ten minutes before switching back to being confident?

System, are you playing with him?

[Damage too low, reward too strong, this is an appropriate weakening]

Alright, you have your reasons.

Lin Yi could only explain this sudden change to Ying Wei, who still happily accepted it!

For Ying Wei, being calm for even a second or two in such an environment was a gift! He really didn't want to repeat the half-hearted retreat he had experienced earlier. At that moment, he felt the killing intent from behind him had become even more tangible.

Wuu wuu wuu His Majesty must think I've disgraced Xingluo.
