With years of experience reading novels, what Su Yu was best at was studying survival in desperate situations.
After all, in this novel, Chu Feng’s greatest talent was simply that he never died.
He could undergo tribulation and, without even stabilizing his cultivation, turn around and kill higher-level martial artists.
If it were an ordinary martial artist, after finishing a tribulation, their Vitality would be unstable. The most important thing would be to find a place to consolidate it in order to regain peak combat strength.
Now Su Yu had experienced that feeling before Chu Feng did, and it was immensely satisfying.
Not only had this tribulation granted him the power of destruction, but his recovery ability had also greatly improved.
That was an unexpected bonus.
“I wonder how big the gap is between me and an ordinary 7th stage Grandmaster,” Su Yu thought.
“Open the personal attribute panel.”
A pale blue, translucent interface unfolded across his vision.
[Host]: Su Yu.
[Realm]: Early 7th stage.
[Vitality Value]: 28,000 points (proficient/control rate: 91%).
[Spiritual Power]: 6,722 Hz.
[villain points]: .
[System Shop]: Click to open.
[Items]: Heavenly Origin Sword, 8th grade Origin Marrow ×50 kilograms, Nine Refinements Golden Body Technique, Soul Forging Scripture, Heavenly Origin Pill.
[Current Mission Progress]: Change the original plotline and kill the Chosen One – Chu Feng. Current progress (5%).
[Main Mission]: Become the Destiny Villain who reigns over all realms!
Seeing that both his Vitality and spiritual power had doubled, Su Yu felt refreshed.
Comfortable!
His Vitality had broken through the 20,000 mark and was approaching 30,000. His control rate had reached 91%, with 25,000 points of Vitality proficiency!
With this level of strength, even if a mid-7th stage Grandmaster came, Su Yu could defeat them with a single palm strike!
His spiritual power was comparable to a Late 7th stage Grandmaster!
This breakthrough had been a massive gain.
Su Yu felt elated and muttered confidently, “As long as I obtain a bit more villain points and exchange for some cultivation-enhancing items in the System Shop, once we reach the Extraterritorial Battlefield… I alone can kill that old woman Han Shuang!”
“Forget it. No need to think about that for now. Tomorrow, after the Heaven Ranking is finalized, obtaining the key from that old fellow is the most important thing.”
Just then, Su Zhanhuang’s voice rang out.
“Hahaha, well done, brat Yu!”
Su Zhanhuang stepped in front of Su Yu and looked him up and down. The more he looked, the more satisfied he became, nodding repeatedly. “Not bad, not bad. Your martial cultivation is solid, and your Vitality is robust.”
“It seems your foundation is very well established.”
This was the Young Master designated by the Su Family, the future Patriarch.
He was also the successor chosen by Su Zhanhuang’s elder brother.
The stronger Su Yu performed now, the more others would fear the Su Family, and their position would remain secure. New chapters come out on g.com first.
Su Yu bowed slightly and smiled. “Second Granduncle, you flatter me. I merely suppressed my cultivation for a long time and happened to gain sudden insight.”
“I am still far from reaching your level.”
He did feel a strong sense of belonging toward the Su Family. If one person encountered trouble, the whole family mobilized.
Su Zhanhuang waved his hand and said seriously, “With your talent, you will become a 9th stage Grandmaster within twenty years. Becoming a Martial Saint within fifty years is not impossible!”
Su Yu merely smiled without replying.
Fifty years…
Too long.
For him, the Martial Saint Realm was not the end. Even the Martial God Realm was only a starting point!
Not to mention the center of the universe, even in the nearby Galactic Empire, a twenty-year-old Martial God could only be considered a genius, far from a true monster.
Blue Star… was still too small.
Principal Wang stood nearby, his expression complicated as he looked at Su Yu.
“Su Yu, since you have already broken through, you should first stabilize your Vitality. After the Heaven Ranking is finalized tomorrow, come to the retirement home behind the school in the evening.”
After saying that, Wang Tianming left.
Su Yu simply nodded lightly.
Capital Martial University was a place with a wavering stance. It was not worth investing too much effort in.
This was merely a transitional stage.
After conversing further with Su Yu and stuffing him with many resources suitable for Grandmasters, Su Zhanhuang also left.
With Su Yu successfully advancing to a 7th stage Grandmaster, the news completely ignited the entire capital.
Countless great families were shaken. Those forces friendly with the Su Family were overjoyed.
After all, if their ally had produced a monstrous genius, their own status would be more secure.
However, while some celebrated, others despaired.
Capital’s Lin Family.
Ever since Su Yu had come to break off the engagement, followed by the online public opinion storm, the entire Lin Family had fallen into decline.
The Lin Family no longer displayed its former arrogance.
Now, none of them dared to act high-profile outside, afraid someone would take offense and beat them up.
Several family businesses had suffered repeated setbacks, at one point nearing bankruptcy.
Inside the Lin Family’s main hall.
A Lin Family disciple ran in nervously, shouting, “Patriarch, something terrible has happened!”
At that moment, Lin Hao was discussing cooperation matters with the Patriarch of a second-rate family. He glared at the reckless disciple and rebuked, “Why are you panicking? Where is your composure?”
The disciple swallowed nervously and said, “Patriarch, we just received news. The genius who broke through as a Heavenly Soul Grandmaster… is Su Yu!”
Boom!
Hearing this, Lin Hao’s mind went blank. His face turned pale almost instantly.
His grip on the chair tightened sharply.
Crack!
The armrest shattered on the spot.
“Is this news true?” After a moment, Lin Hao regained his senses and demanded harshly, “That Heavenly Soul Grandmaster is really Su Yu?!”
Facing the Patriarch’s ferocious expression, the disciple shrank his neck and answered weakly, “It’s true. The entire capital already knows.”
Lin Hao’s pupils contracted violently. At that moment, he felt fear once again.
The first time had been when his father died and the Lin Family stood on the brink of collapse.
The second time was when Su Yu came to break off the engagement and he was trampled underfoot by an 8th stage Golden Body Realm powerhouse.
The third time was now, upon hearing that Su Yu had become a Heavenly Soul Grandmaster.
The Patriarch of the second-rate family beside him was equally terrified. His own family had only one Early 8th stage expert. He had come to negotiate business with the Lin Family merely to pick up some bargains and acquire part of their industries.
But now, he no longer had the slightest interest.
“Patriarch Lin, let’s forget about the acquisition. I’ll take my leave first,” Patriarch Wei said decisively. He stood up, gave a perfunctory cupped-fist, and left the hall without looking back.
His speed was faster than flying!
Yet Lin Hao did not attempt to stop him. He had only one thought in his mind.
“The Lin Family… is finished!”
“No! We must obtain Su Yu’s forgiveness at any cost!”
“Yes! Let Panxi go and talk to him! He loved Panxi for so many years. As long as she is willing to kneel and beg him, he should spare the Lin Family!”
With that thought, Lin Hao hurriedly took out his phone to contact Lin Panxi.
…
The news of Su Yu becoming a Heavenly Soul Grandmaster spread like wildfire, shocking the entire capital.
But the excitement outside did not affect Capital Martial University.
The next day, the battle for the Heaven Ranking in the arena entered a feverish stage.
From early morning, the rankings kept changing continuously.
Except for the top ten, which remained stable, the remaining ten positions shifted repeatedly. Only when the ranking was finalized did the battles in the arena finally cease.
8:00 p.m.
Outside the retirement home behind Capital Martial University.
Twenty students arrived one after another. After everyone had gathered, Wang Tianming said loudly, “Stay close to me. No wandering off!”
Within the crowd, Chu Feng stood at the back, dressed simply.
However, his gaze was gloomy yet burning with ambition.
“The martial inheritance of a 9th stage Grandmaster… I must obtain it!”
