374, You actually sneak attacked someone as outstanding as me! [Second Update]_1

"Davis must be harboring some resentment, that's why he picked Ying Wei, this coward, to come over—he wants to embarrass us in Xingluo."

Zhu Yun analyzed with a frown from the stands.

Dai Ben laughed awkwardly, as he dared not display even a hint of his imperial majesty in front of Zhu Yun now, "That's probably the case. When I get the chance, I'm going to kill him! But Ying Wei did receive an award for confidence, right, so it shouldn't be a problem."

But why do I still feel like this is a big problem... Zhu Yun couldn't help but murmur to herself internally.

Lin Yi raised his right hand and flicked the reward orb over to Ying Wei.

After merging with the orb, Ying Wei lowered his head, his expression blank for a moment.

Suddenly, a low chuckle emanated from his mouth.

"Hehehe..."

He lifted his head, revealing a confident smile, so confident it was as if the word "confidence" was written across his face.

"Ptooey! Ptooey!"

Ying Wei spat on each palm, then ran his hands through his hair to slick it back, giving himself a "handsome hairstyle."

His eyes sharply scanning, he stroked his chin with his fingers, "I've realized something. Do you want to hear it?"

Lin Yi watched him calmly, "What is it?"

Ying Wei's lips curled into a smirk, "From the beginning, there have been many beautiful women silently observing me. I believe they have already fallen deeply in love with me, because there's a term for it, love at first sight."

Lin Yi: "..."

Zhu Yun and Dai Ben watched the scene, the corners of their eyes twitching.

They had a bad feeling about this.

At that moment, Ying Wei suddenly turned around on the stage, pointing his finger at Gu Yuena behind him, corners of his mouth lifting in a wicked smile:

"This beauty, do you like my back? You've been looking at me from the start until now. Given that you are the most outstanding in appearance here, I've decided to ignore the others who secretly adore me and satisfy all your wishes instead!"

Gu Yuena, feeling lifeless: "Can you just go die?"

Ying Wei once more slicked back his hair with both hands, laughing heartily, "An unusual request, but you are indeed a different kind of girl. I admit, you have shaken my long-sealed heart. Are you ready to take responsibility for that?"

Gu Yuena: "..."

She admitted to herself that she had never felt such an urgent desire to knife someone!

Lin Yi was already dumbfounded. Was this reward a bit off?

Is this strong confidence?

This is more like a "strongly delusional man," right?!

He saw Gu Yuena's rolling her eyes so hard they could almost reach the sky, silver scales emerging on the back of her hands, looking ready to kill.

To prevent Gu Yuena from going berserk, Lin Yi reminded Ying Wei, "You have a second attack to make. Begin."

For some reason, upon hearing Lin Yi's voice, the overly confident Ying Wei's expression tightened, and he immediately turned around, bowing respectfully to Lin Yi, "Yes! Senior Lin Yi!"

It seemed his confidence didn't work on me... No, it only had a very minor effect, merely erasing his excessive timidity, but leaving a deep sense of awe. Lin Yi immediately realized this.

But this made Gu Yuena very depressed. Why was his attitude towards Lin Yi so normal?

Why was he only disgusting towards me? Just because I'm the prettiest?

At that moment, Lin Yi suddenly said, "Don't harass any of the women present."

Ying Wei's face became panic-stricken, and he quickly said, "Since Senior Lin Yi has spoken, I shall certainly comply!"

Gu Yuena's expression eased quite a bit at this.

She suddenly raised an eyebrow. Could this be taken as Lin Yi caring for her, getting jealous?

It might really be the case.

Ying Wei's attack this time was obviously much calmer than before, each action methodical and progressively executed, completely devoid of the earlier chaos.

However, he was still using his Fourth Soul Skill.

As the Purple Soul Ring rose upward, Ying Wei's body, once more, transformed into four clones identical to himself.

Their eyes glowed crimson as they simultaneously lowered their heads, aiming the thick and sharp horns in Lin Yi's direction. Their right legs scraped against the ground, and they charged forward rapidly.

This time, Lin Yi even felt the force of Ying Wei's charge had increased significantly.

The result of confidence?

However, Ying Wei still got knocked back by the recoil, but what was shocking was that after rolling on the ground, he managed to pose with one knee on the ground, one hand steady by his side, looking cool and smug.

He slowly stood up, a smile playing on his lips, "I hope my spectacular exit wins your applause."

The entire place was silent.

So silent you could hear the Little Golden Crocodile farting.

So awkward… Zhu Yun's mouth twitched.

Is this reward poisoned or what! Is this what you call confidence? This is narcissism, right?!

Lin Yi looked at the panel.

[Blood Loss: 8976]

[Remaining Health: 899886370967]

[Damage Grade: Yellow]

[Random Reward: Air Pump]

[Host Reward: Air Pump*3]

Hm? Air Pump?

It must be a magically modified air pump.

Lin Yi looked at the notes.

[Place the air nozzle on the area of the body you want to enlarge and start pumping; it will make the muscles in that area grow, increasing your strength accordingly]

As expected, it had been magically modified into a marvelous item.

Thinking about it, it really suited Ying Wei; his Martial Soul was the "Inflating Water Buffalo," and this pump could inflate him even more.

Lin Yi said, "Damage 8976, yellow grade, your reward is an air pump."

Everyone had never heard of this term, so Lin Yi read aloud the contents of the notes.

Then, he added, "But there's a limit to how much you can inflate. Your body can feel this limit. If you exceed it, you'll go 'bang,' and you'll explode into pieces."

Ying Wei's eyes twitched at this, but he still laughed, "No big deal… No big deal!"

"Also, the air pump can only make your muscles grow; it won't enlarge your bones."

Ying Wei continued to laugh, "Got it, got it!"

Lin Yi flicked the yellow orb of light towards him, morphing into a mini air pump in midair.

Ying Wei stylishly reached out and caught it.

"Senior Lin Yi, may I show everyone my reward? Let them gain some insight."

Lin Yi: "…Yes, that's one of our traditions."

Ying Wei nodded, baring his white teeth as he headed towards the audience.

Nonchalantly tossing the air pump to Dai Ben, he laughed, "Your Majesty, I bet you're curious about my marvelous reward too. I'll give you the chance to witness a miracle by pumping air for me. Go ahead, don't you see the envious looks everyone is giving you? It's an opportunity many desire."

Dai Ben turned around and saw the pitying looks everyone was giving him…

Ying Wei, with his back to Dai Ben, raised his arms, flexing his muscles, "Look at my excellent biceps. They're probably tougher than steel. Pump them up!"

Dai Ben gritted his teeth and kicked Ying Wei in the buttocks.

"Ouch, fuck! How dare you sneak attack someone as excellent as me!"

Ying Wei, lying on the ground, quickly got up, pointing angrily at Dai Ben, and suddenly, his expression froze.

The ten minutes of confidence had passed...
