Chapter 18: Is This the "Slight" Strength You Mentioned?
Chapter 18: Is This the "Slight" Strength You Mentioned?
Due to Yecheng's incredible speed, the crowd barely had time to react before they saw his body already in front of the massive crimson fireball.
However, just as everyone was wondering what he was about to do, Yecheng gripped the crude bone knife in his hand and condensed his Reiatsu—magic power—into the blade, then unleashed a powerful slash!
"Yeshen One-Blade Style—God-Cleaving!"
Yecheng had his own swordsmanship school. Although he came from Rukongai, he had encountered a master of a swordsmanship school in his early years. Because of the master's kindness towards him, Yecheng was taught the martial arts.
Even the strongest martial arts masters eventually meet their end. According to the world of the Shinigami, after death, people either become wandering souls or fall into the form of Hollows.
Many martial arts masters who died were already quite old, so they were not very noticeable in Rukongai. However, Yecheng knew how to leverage his own advantages before he gained any special abilities.
It wasn't just swordsmanship; whether it was Hakuda or other combat techniques, Yecheng had learned a lot even before entering the Central Spiritual Academy.
This is why, despite having no background, no connections, and no special abilities, he was able to significantly outpace the other characters from the original story from the very beginning.
What was originally supposed to be a high-density spirit particle slash, composed of condensed spirit particles, was transformed into a purely compressed magic power slash in this world.
The bright white slash, due to the compressed magic power, took on a physical form. As it flew out from the blade, it instantly transformed into a crescent moon nearly several meters tall, effortlessly slicing the "Crimson Fire Cannon" Yecheng had previously released, like cutting through a watermelon.
"BOOM———!"
When the crimson fireball was split in half, a terrifying amount of energy exploded instantly, and the intense heat engulfed the surroundings. The ground, as if squeezed by a powerful force, formed a large crater several meters wide. The surrounding ground was scorched by the high temperature, and the air temperature soared several degrees higher than before.
However, the most outrageous part was the slash that Yecheng used to split the fireball. The crescent moon slash, several meters tall, not only plowed a deep trench into the ground but also damaged the ceiling.
After splitting the massive crimson fireball in half, it continued its momentum, slicing through all the tables and chairs along its path, and finally leaving a deep gash on the wall of the Adventurer's Guild!
Since everything that happened just now occurred in the blink of an eye, everyone present was still in a state of shock.
When they finally came to their senses and looked at Yecheng again, their expressions had completely changed.
No wonder Rex was so on edge earlier. If someone this terrifying was considered a new adventurer, then they were no better than infants wearing diapers.
"Miss Suya, I am truly sorry. I haven't been serious in a long time, so I didn't control my power well just now.
We will compensate for all the damage here. Although I am a bit strapped for cash right now, I will make money soon."
If they had heard Yecheng say this before the fight, everyone would have thought this newcomer was just boasting.
But after witnessing such a battle, no one in the crowd had any doubt about Yecheng's words.
Just kidding, in the brief battle between Yecheng and Rex, Yecheng has amply demonstrated his exceptional martial skills, vast magic power, and astonishing physical abilities!
His exceptional martial skills were evident in the slash that split the fireball, his vast magic power was showcased in the Crimson Fire Cannon he released, and his astonishing speed was demonstrated by his ability to appear in front of the fireball as if he had teleported.
Whether it be martial skills, magic power, or physical abilities, Yecheng has far surpassed all the adventurers here. Although he is a newly registered newcomer, he is undoubtedly the strongest newcomer in name and in reality!
"Part of the responsibility for this incident lies with me, so I will also bear part of the loss. I originally thought it was just a minor skirmish, but I didn't expect that the strength you claimed to have would be so overwhelming."
To be honest, Suya really didn't expect that the sparring between Yecheng and Rex would escalate to such a level. She had initially thought Yecheng was a pure newbie, and even if they sparred in the guild hall, it wouldn't cause much damage. But who would have thought...
"Miss Suya, now that I have proven my strength, can I take on dangerous tasks above E-Rank?"
Rex: (ToT)/ Who am I? Where am I? Have you all forgotten about me!
Yecheng, walking out of the Adventurer's Guild with a satisfied expression, had not only received a high-level task but also an A-Rank mission, after proving his strength.
For an E-Rank newbie adventurer to accept an A-Rank mission, if it were in the past, it would have been unimaginable.
However, this privilege was personally granted to Yecheng by the guild's president.
The president was originally upstairs, sipping tea and chatting leisurely with his assistant, but the huge commotion made him think his wife had come to confront him. So, he immediately called back his already calmed-down little brother and pushed away the delicate assistant in his arms, then quickly walked downstairs.
After understanding the entire situation, the president decided to grant Yecheng this special privilege.
The Adventurer's Guild is not just a single entity but exists in most larger towns, and the headquarters evaluates the performance of each guild annually.
The stronger the adventurers gathered in a town and the more difficult and numerous the missions they complete each year, the better it is for the guild president.
Upon realizing that Yecheng was a promising young man, the guild president generously waived any compensation from Yecheng and even granted him the privilege of taking on high-level missions.
However, even as the guild president, he couldn't use his privileges to directly elevate Yecheng to a corresponding rank.
Adventurers must meet certain criteria to gradually advance in rank, which is a rule set by all Adventurer's Guilds, and he couldn't change that.
But Yecheng was quite indifferent to this. He has never been particularly concerned with fame and similar things.
His current goal is to make money. As long as he can take on high-level missions, he can quickly earn money.
Whether it's to quickly understand this otherworld or to strengthen himself, money is essential.
