I Break through Crazily

SQUISH. It sounded like something had just been pulped.

The candidate whose crotch Tang Yi had stomped let out a bloodcurdling scream. He clutched his lower body, rolling back and forth on the ground, his face a mask of excruciating pain.

Every male who witnessed this scene immediately covered his own crotch, a look of horror on his face.

Even Tang Piaomiao, who was watching from outside the Qi Shield, instinctively squeezed his legs together and unconsciously brought his arms up to protect his front.

As the stomped candidate wailed in agony, his heart was filled with regret. ’Why did we have to run our mouths for no reason? Why did we have to say anything about stomping someone? Look at us now. Payback’s a bitch, isn’t it?’

However, he was only the first!

Tang Yi was still moving at high speed. WHOOSH! He appeared beside a second candidate. SLAP! SLAP! SLAP! After ten quick slaps to the face, he brought his foot down, crushing the second candidate as well. Then, he moved on to the third...

Just like that, in the blink of an eye, a total of seven candidates from the East District had each received ten slaps and a stomp. All of them now lay on the ground, wailing in pain.

Even Liu Tao’s number one lackey, Qian Xiaoliu, who was at the One-star Battle Spirit Level, was part of the wailing crowd. No one was spared.

Regardless of their strength, whether they were terrified or fought for their lives, every single one of them received Tang Yi’s punishment.

In the blink of an eye, of all the East District candidates, the only one left standing was Liu Tao himself.

”You... you... you...”

Liu Tao was so terrified his teeth were chattering, unable to speak a complete sentence.

He was scared. Terrified.

Tang Yi was too strong. So strong that none of them could even withstand a single move before getting slapped ten times.

At the same time, he was cursing that group of candidates for their stupid ideas. ’Why did they have to mention stomping anyone?’

If they hadn’t, even if they got their faces slapped, it would have just been ten slaps. And now? The situation was far, far worse.

”’Me’ what? Stop stuttering. Since all your little buddies are like this now, you have to join them, right? Otherwise, it would be so unfair, wouldn’t it?” Tang Yi said nonchalantly. He then walked toward Liu Tao, revealing a brilliant smile.

But in Liu Tao’s eyes, that ’brilliant smile’ was like the smile of a Demon, making him even more frightened.

”No, don’t! I forf—”

Liu Tao watched Tang Yi in terror, wanting to shout that he forfeited. As long as he forfeited, he would be teleported out of the Qi Shield, and Tang Yi wouldn’t be able to attack him anymore.

This was a rule of the West Mansion. Once outside the Qi Shield, the match was considered over. If he continued to attack, Tang Yi would also face severe punishment from the West Mansion.

But...

Liu Tao had barely gotten a single word out when Tang Yi, moving faster than he could speak, instantly arrived at his side. A slap flew toward Liu Tao’s face, forcing the words he was about to say back down his throat.

SLAP! SLAP! SLAP! SLAP!

Ten slaps landed squarely on Liu Tao’s face, making him look just like the other East District candidates: his head was swollen like a pig’s.

And then!

STOMP!

Unsurprisingly, he too was stomped by Tang Yi.

The whole process was so fast that Liu Tao couldn’t even think of resisting.

And with that, all eight people from the East District were down on the ground.

At this moment, the blurry figure with indistinct features appeared once more and announced, ”Match over. Temporary numbers 55465 and seven others have lost all Combat Power. Temporary number 59416 is the victor. The match is terminated.”

HUMMM!

With a soft sound, a light flashed within the Qi Shield. Whether it was Liu Tao and the others lying on the ground or Tang Yi, they were all enveloped by this light and subsequently teleported out of the Qi Shield.

”This independent challenge stage is really advanced. It’s so convenient.”

Now outside the Qi Shield, Tang Yi glanced at it in admiration, then turned to Mu Xianling and the others. ”Let’s go. We’ll check out the Ranking Hall and the Eight Palaces Deer Battle Hall.”

Having experienced the independent challenge stage, Tang Yi’s anticipation for the Fighting Palace’s Ranking Hall and Eight Palaces Deer Battle Hall grew even stronger.

As for Liu Tao and the others on the ground, Tang Yi didn’t give them a second glance.

In his eyes, these people were merely test subjects for him to try out the independent challenge stage.

Hearing this, Mu Xianling and the others nodded and followed Tang Yi out of the challenge stage room. Instantly, the only ones left in the room were Liu Tao’s group, still wailing in pain...

As they walked out of the corridor, the Elder who had stopped them earlier approached again. Seeing Tang Yi walking at the head of the group, he said, ”Huh? Young man, how are you all out so quickly? Is the match over? And why are only a few of you coming out? Where are the others?”

”Oh, them? They probably wanted to spar a little longer to polish their combat skills. We needed to go see some other places, so we came out early.”

Tang Yi said with a smile.

He didn’t tell the Elder that those people were currently on the ground, clutching their crotches...

”Is that so? Well, what other places do you want to visit?” The Elder nodded upon hearing this and then asked Tang Yi.

”This disciple would like to see the Eight Palaces Deer Battle Hall and the Ranking Hall,” Tang Yi said.

”The Eight Palaces Deer Battle Hall and the Ranking Hall are both down the second corridor.” The Elder pointed toward a corridor in the middle and said, ”Go down that way. The large hall on the left is the Eight Palaces Deer Battle Hall, and the slightly smaller hall on the right is the Ranking Hall.”

”Thank you for the directions, Elder. Might I ask for this Elder’s name?” Tang Yi asked gratefully, cupping his fists.

Tang Yi planned to join Dui Palace in the future, so he wanted to get to know some of its Elders and high-ranking members if possible.

”It’s no trouble. You can call me Elder Fang. Every year it’s our Dui Palace’s turn to host the House Entrance Examination, I always give directions to the new candidates who come to visit. It’s quite lively, and I haven’t seen Dui Palace this bustling in a long time. The last time was... eight years ago now, I believe,” Elder Fang said with a sigh.

The House Entrance Examination was hosted by one of the Outer Mansion’s Eight Palaces in rotation. This year was Qian Palace, next year would be Kan Palace, the year after would be Gen Palace, and so on.

Whichever Palace hosted the exam was the one the candidates had to go to. They were not allowed to venture out to other Palaces, a long-standing rule of the West Mansion.

Dui Palace ranked last among the Outer Mansion’s Eight Palaces, and consequently, it had fewer disciples. This was why, aside from Mo Ran, Tang Yi and his group had rarely seen any Dui Palace disciples during their long walk.

If the examination were held in any of the other Palaces in the Outer Mansion, they would have encountered far more West Mansion Disciples.

Of course, since Dui Palace was hosting the House Entrance Examination this year, it was expected to recruit more disciples than in previous years due to preconceived notions. After all, the first and only Palace the new candidates came into contact with was Dui Palace; they were unfamiliar with the other seven Palaces of the West Mansion Outer Mansion.

”Elder Fang, you don’t have to sigh. Dui Palace will get better and better, I guarantee it.”

Tang Yi said, full of confidence.

”Heh.”

Elder Fang glanced at Tang Yi without replying, but his favorable impression of the young man grew a little.

Waving his hand, Elder Fang said, ”Alright, let’s talk about all that after you pass the House Entrance Examination. Hurry up and go experience the wonders of the Eight Palaces Deer Battle Hall. Perhaps after witnessing the strength of others, you won’t be so confident.”
